Trump warns gas stations of “big problems” if pump prices don’t fall as oil trades near $68 a barrel

AI Market Summary
A U.S.–Iran ceasefire memorandum and the reopening of Strait of Hormuz shipping have reduced perceived Middle East supply risks, driving a sharp pullback in Brent and WTI from conflict highs and prompting downgrades to 2026 oil price estimates. Trump's public pressure on gasoline retailers and potential DOJ scrutiny adds political and regulatory overhang, though pump-price pass-through lags due to refining and logistics constraints.

The United States and Iran signed a ceasefire memorandum on June 17, agreeing to reopen shipping through the Strait of Hormuz and easing concerns over Middle East supply disruptions. Brent and WTI futures have since pulled back sharply from recent highs, and institutions have cut 2026 price forecasts, including Brent to $84.50 per barrel from $90.44. The national average gasoline price has fallen for five straight weeks to $3.91 per gallon on June 29. Trump has publicly pressed gas stations to cut prices, while the industry says refining and logistics can delay how quickly lower crude prices reach the pump.
