Looking 'very seriously' at banning US diesel exports, says Trump
US President Donald Trump says he is looking very seriously at banning American diesel exports. Several farm-state lawmakers urged him to limit those exports during the peak of the fall harvest season. The talk is still just a possibility, not a decision. If it moves ahead, global diesel supply could tighten, so keep an eye on fuel and freight costs.
