— US average gas prices have surged 9 cents in two days, reaching 3.88 per gallon, AAA reports. Prices rose 5 cents Thursday and a further 4 cents overnight, following a roughly 6 rise in oil prices since US-Iran hostilities resumed in the Persian Gulf.

Gas had been slowly declining from a wartime peak of 4.56 per gallon hit in mid-May before the latest oil spike reversed that trend.@IntelSlava
