Expert Sees Brief Gasoline Price Dip, Likely Rise Ahead

In Los Angeles AP reports oil analyst Dan Lundberg says gasoline prices fell about two tenths of a cent in two weeks, the first drop in six months, but he warns prices will rise as refiners' docked oil supplies meet only slightly lower crude costs. He notes OPEC cut prices modestly and self serve gas averages about $1.22 to $1.32 per gallon with leaded costs climbing faster due to EPA mandates.
