CNBC: Transport companies — the backbone of economy — are sounding alarm on fuel prices

Diesel reached about $6.31 a gallon, and analysts said the spike could lift shipping costs, squeeze farm margins and pressure consumer prices.

Summary by Ground News
Prices for diesel, the fuel type used to power trucks and trains, came in at an all-time high of around $6.31 per gallon on Wednesday, according to AAA. Diesel prices have surged more than 70% from a year ago, which analysts attribute to the supply shock from the U.S. war with Iran.
