The ongoing conflict in the Middle East is disrupting global supply chains and driving up input costs for manufacturing. Record diesel prices have been reported, with heating oil prices in Maine increasing by 74% year-over-year.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The conflict is causing economic fallout and productivity decline, leading to a squeeze on living standards. Rising diesel prices increase transportation costs across the U.S. economy, which often translates into higher prices for consumer goods and services. The gap between crude oil and refined product prices, known as the crack spread, indicates that wholesale price spikes quickly lead to retail price increases.
