Energy markets are starting the week moving modestly lower with losses on either side of a penny/gallon for refined products. For ULSD, this would mark a 6th consecutive drop if prices stay negative today, with a total decline of 13 cents during that stretch, 11 cents last Monday/Tuesday and just 2 cents in the past 4 sessions. Another way to look at this, ULSD took a week to make a move it would have easily made in an hour 2 years ago.
