It's the winter. Diesel and fuel oil prices do not go down. A good portion of the north east uses fuel oil to heat their homes, thankfully mine is natural gas. Anyone that locked in their fuel price for the year is going to take it up the proverbial backside. But considering they've come out ahead the past few years the oil companies will be happy. Looked at the price of K1 for the garage heater and it's at $3.78. Won't be buying any at that price.
