Gas prices in the U.S. have dipped below $4 per gallon for the first time since March, averaging $3.999, following a recent agreement between the U.S. and Iran. This deal, signed by President Trump, involves Iran reducing its enriched uranium stockpile and the U.S. lifting certain sanctions. The agreement aims to end hostilities and initiate negotiations on Iran’s nuclear program. Despite the drop in gas prices, regional differences remain, with California seeing prices as high as $5.64 per gallon. The decline in oil prices, now around $80 per barrel, is expected to take time to impact the market fully, as the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial oil passage, is still recovering from disruptions. These disruptions have affected global supply chains, leading to ongoing higher costs for various goods.
