Today\u2019s national average is $1.77, which is four cents less than last week, 28 cents cheaper than last month and $1.11 less than a year ago.<\/p>\n<p>Crude oil prices were extremely volatile last week, pushing negative for the first time ever, but they did make significant gains to end the week in the positive. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) reported demand at 5.3 million b\/d, a slight increase, but still an extremely low rate compared to last April\u2019s 9.45 million b\/d average. Low demand pushed gasoline stocks to increase for yet another week, this time by 1 million bbl to put total U.S. stock levels at 263 million bbl.<\/p>\n<p>Some states could see minimal fluctuation at the pump in coming weeks if demand jumps as business are given the green light to re-open. However, this will not have a large impact for the majority of the nation\u2019s motorists.<\/p>\n<h3>National Oil Market Dynamics<\/h3>\n<p>At the end of Friday\u2019s formal trading session, WTI increased by 44 cents to settle at $16.94 per barrel.&nbsp;Crude prices have recovered after turning negative last week for the first time since trading in 1983. Last week\u2019s decline in prices has been attributed to many factors, including the inability of market traders who owned oil futures to find other market participants to sell their futures contracts to and limited available crude storage options.<\/p>\n<p>Crude prices started to push more expensive by the end of last week in response to reports of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries reducing crude output before the May 1 start date of its 9.7 million b\/d production reduction agreement for May and June 2020. Crude prices will likely remain volatile this week, as the market continues to assess how much crude demand will continue to fall during the ongoing pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[470center]<\/p>\n<h3>Tennessee Regional Prices<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Most expensive&nbsp;<\/strong>metro markets \u2013&nbsp;&nbsp;Nashville&nbsp;($1.72),&nbsp;Morristown&nbsp;($1.67), Jackson ($1.57)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Least expensive&nbsp;<\/strong>metro markets&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;Cleveland ($1.43),&nbsp;Memphis ($1.45),&nbsp;Chattanooga&nbsp;($1.51)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Tennessee Gas Price Averages<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">(Price per gallon of regular unleaded gasoline)<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse;\" width=\"480\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"1\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"_x0000_i1025\" src=\"http:\/\/us.vocuspr.com\/Publish\/522440\/vcsPRAsset_522440_111140_05eefa3c-52b9-479f-bf8a-65a00e2b54b4_0.jpg\" alt=\"vcsPRAsset_522440_105553_279a6033-181d-4f41-a971-72bcb183d553_0\" width=\"75\" height=\"54\" border=\"0\"><\/td>\n<td valign=\"middle\" bgcolor=\"#9C9C9C\" align=\"center\"><strong>Monday<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"middle\" bgcolor=\"#9C9C9C\" align=\"center\"><strong>Sunday<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"middle\" bgcolor=\"#9C9C9C\" align=\"center\"><strong>Week Ago<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"middle\" bgcolor=\"#9C9C9C\" align=\"center\"><strong>Month Ago<\/strong><\/td>\n<td valign=\"middle\" bgcolor=\"#9C9C9C\" align=\"center\"><strong>One Year Ago<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Tennessee<\/strong><\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.560<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.562<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.596<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.813<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.625<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\">Chattanooga<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$1.508<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$1.510<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$1.528<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$1.738<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$2.532<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Knoxville<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.543<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.550<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.595<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.862<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.610<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\">Memphis<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$1.450<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$1.442<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$1.472<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$1.678<\/td>\n<td bgcolor=\"#D9D9D9\" align=\"right\">$2.604<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Nashville<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.718<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.725<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.768<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$1.923<\/td>\n<td align=\"right\">$2.692<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"6\" valign=\"middle\" bgcolor=\"#9C9C9C\" align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/urldefense.proofpoint.com\/v2\/url?u=https-3A__gasprices.aaa.com_-3Fstate-3DTN&amp;d=DwMFaQ&amp;c=eNuipZQSSZ-V2OUyrfaYLSftczBV2p4CfLkxUOKUdcA&amp;r=K3hYh2ljvBvkGdFe5QHxguztC21GVBBYW210envWBJtFip0qJJ9Kee-XFwg6js2K&amp;m=EbowAUHPFwPymjWNxH81qsxFMtJsbVW-SirU7xbH6yQ&amp;s=Ss83wqQc5sXzEp7dv1swDpNJWD3FOfv9HQtCLbm0BEk&amp;e=\"  target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Click here<\/strong><\/a><strong>&nbsp;to view current gasoline price averages<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>About AAA &#8211; The Auto Club Group<\/h3>\n<p>The Auto Club Group (ACG) is the second largest AAA club in North America.&nbsp;ACG and its affiliates provide membership, insurance, banking, financial services, and travel offerings to over 13.5&nbsp;million members across 13 U.S. states, the province of Quebec and two U.S. territories including Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Michigan, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Dakota, Tennessee, Wisconsin, Puerto Rico, South Carolina and the U.S. Virgin Islands; most of Illinois and Minnesota; and a portion of Indiana.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>ACG belongs to the national AAA federation with more than 60 million members in the United States and Canada whose mission includes protecting and advancing freedom of mobility and improving traffic safety.
