Gasoline & Petroleum Bulk Stations in the US
Since terminals are almost entirely dependent on the supply of crude oil from foreign sources (both OPEC and non-OPEC), the industry remains at the mercy of international prices - which are a cost of goods sold for distributors. There is always the potential for political events or natural disasters to give rise to sharp and substantial, if short-term, movements in oil prices. In a climate of relatively finely balanced supply and demand, buyers are likely to respond to disruptions in supply by bidding prices up.
