“While it’s possible average gasoline prices will remain within arm’s reach of recent lows, unless there’s renewed or new concerns with the spread of the coronavirus, we may have seen the deepest discounted prices behind us, with some chance we’ll hold close to the lows before the seasonal rally begins in earnest,” DeHaan said. “It wouldn’t be a bad time to fill up to hedge the chances of prices rising in the coming days.”
