(CNN)– AAA says regular gas is averaging $4.16 a gallon. But, oil markets are seeing some relief after the U.S. and Iran announced a ceasefire. West Texas Intermediate Crude is trading below a $100 a barrel as of this morning. That’s an improvement over Tuesday April 7, 2026, when the U.S. b enchmark topped 116. But, WTI is still well above the pre-war price. The global oil benchmark is Brent Crude. It’s also below a $100 a barrel today (Wednesday, April 8, 2026). That has stocks rebounding in global and U.S. premarket trading.
