[Crude Oil Price Decline Fails to Stabilize Refined Oil Price Increases; Export Ban Pressure Rises] ⑴ Despite international crude oil prices falling for the second consecutive day, the refined oil market continues to move in the opposite direction. ⑵ Data from the American Automobile Association shows that diesel prices have exceeded $6.50 per gallon, and regular gasoline prices are approaching $4.50 per gallon. ⑶ Refined oil is increasingly becoming a topic of diplomatic interaction, as reflected in recent reports. ⑷ At the same time, pressure to implement an export ban is rising. ⑸ The divergence between crude oil and refined oil price trends reflects that the bottleneck in refining capacity, rather than crude oil supply, is the primary contradiction at present. If export restrictions are further expanded, the global flow and price of refined oil trade may be more significantly disrupted.
