• Gas prices are now cheaper than this time last year. Could they fall below $3 a gallon in the months ahead?

  Drivers paying for gas on Thursday paid slightly less on average than they did one year ago — a 1c difference — but there may be even cheaper gas in the weeks and months to come, experts say. Thursday’s national average for a gallon of gas was approximately $3.33, AAA said. Six months after drivers were snapping photos of high prices at the pump, gasoline-industry experts say the downward trend is due to a combination of falling crude-oil prices and a drop in driver demand after traditionally busy summer months.
  
  “We expect gas prices likely are going to continue trending lower,” said AAA spokesman Devin Gladden. It’s possible the national average will fall below the $3-per-gallon mark, but when that happens and for how long is unclear, he added.

  Ex-Theranos president gets a longer sentence than Elizabeth Holmes. A federal judge sentenced Ramesh “Sunny” Balwani, who was Holmes’s No. 2 at the failed blood-testing startup and is also her ex-boyfriend, to nearly 13 years in prison (Holmes got 11). Balwani and Holmes had pointed the finger at each other for the fraud at Theranos, which they built into a $10 billion company before it came out that the tech they were hyping simply didn’t work and was never going to.
