US President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Monday aimed at loosening restrictions on the use of a tax-exempt type of diesel fuel, according to FX Street.
The policy change is expected to impact the energy and transportation sectors by potentially lowering fuel costs and altering demand dynamics for this specific diesel variety.
For Japanese markets, this move could influence global fuel prices and trade flows, particularly in energy-linked FX and equities, amid ongoing shifts in US energy policy.
