Post-COVID dynamics of the refined–crude oil price spread in the us: Evidence from long memory and fractional cointegration models

This study investigates the widening spread between refined and crude oil prices in the United States during the post-COVID period. The objective of the paper is to analyze the dynamics of this spread, with particular emphasis on the persistence of shocks and the existence of long-run equilibrium re...
