RAC: UK diesel prices record the largest monthly drop on record

RAC: UK diesel prices record the largest monthly drop on record

Golden Ten Data reported on July 2 that diesel prices in the UK saw a record decline in June, marking the latest sign that the inflation shock caused by the Iran war is rapidly fading. The UK's automotive association RAC stated that the average diesel price dropped by nearly 17 pence to 167 pence per liter, representing the largest single-month decrease since data collection began in 2000. Petrol prices fell by 8 pence per liter to 151 pence, the seventh largest decline on record. The fall in petrol prices is expected to offset the inflationary pressure caused by a 13% increase in UK household energy bills that took effect yesterday. Market participants now anticipate that the peak of UK inflation will be much lower than the Bank of England's forecast in April. Traders have also significantly reduced their bets on interest rate hikes and no longer fully price in a rate increase in the UK this year.
