DAVENPORT, FL (DTN) -- Group 3 Jet Fuel basis jumped Wednesday (1/14) above
February NYMEX ULSD futures, reaching at its strongest level in nearly two
months.
The product's basis strengthened by 10cts on the day, after a trade was
confirmed at a 13ct discount to February futures, the strongest level reported
since November 26, 2025.
The uptick in Group 3 jet fuel basis was not reflected across the broader
Midwest, as Chicago jet fuel values held steady at a 28cts discount to February
NYMEX ULSD futures, signaling that strength remained localized rather than
regionwide.
