5 stocks to buy on low gas prices

Gas prices are sliding, and CNBC "Fast Money" traders believe some stocks will see big benefits.

The average gallon of gas cost $2.20 in the United States on Wednesday, the lowest since 2004, according to AAA. With fuel prices low for not only cars but also jets, airlines should enjoy a boost, said trader Pete Najarian.

"Delta and most of the airlines are doing very, very well with these fuel levels," he said.

He noted that Delta Air Lines hit a 52-week high earlier this week.

Trader Karen Finerman also sees upside for companies that benefit from consumer travel. Drivers should be more open to buying sport-utility vehicles with low fuel prices, and General Motors could profit, she said.

Other traders looked to oil refining stocks, which have performed well as exploration and production names have struggled. Trader Guy Adami pointed to Tesoro and Valero, which have jumped more than 50 and 40 percent this year, respectively.

Trader Tim Seymour likes Royal Dutch Shell. He said the company's European refining business could benefit from a weakening euro against the dollar.
