Analysts warn a US diesel export ban could tighten supplies
MarketWatch analysts say restricting exports could both reduce available diesel and push prices higher.
Analysts cited by MarketWatch say a potential ban on U.S. diesel exports could backfire by shrinking available supply.
The outlet reports that, while exporters would be curtailed, the same policy could also worsen pricing pressure, with diesel prices rising further as supplies tighten.
MarketWatch frames the risk as a supply reduction that could offset any intended effects of limiting exports.
