Gasoline costs are expected to decline slightly for the second consecutive week in tomorrow\u2019s report, after the prior two prints were $4.50 and $4.49 per gallon. But the result is projected to remain close to those levels, as the Interactive Brokers prediction market places the most likely settlement price around $4.48, which would just be a penny under the previous headline. Indeed, the \u201cNo\u201d contracts at the $4.50 and $4.45 thresholds are going for $0.64 and $0.05, signaling a figure between those numbers. The narrow range of potential outcomes is due to energy commodities remaining relatively confined in the past 7 days, with WTI crude swinging above and beneath its near-term anchor of $100 several times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bank of Korea Not Ready to Hike<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Bank of Korea is not ready to hike interest rates yet even as growth and inflation soar in light of a booming semiconductor sector and a Middle East conflict driving up fuel expenses. The nation imports its energy needs, making it vulnerable to the lift in oil, and its weakening currency has also raised price pressures as arriving shipped products cost incrementally more to pay for in foreign tender. Meanwhile, the country\u2019s monetary policy authority is almost certainly going to remain on pause in its meeting tomorrow as the Interactive Brokers prediction market places a 97% likelihood of no change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
