Currently, GA/SC Gas costs us about $2.79 a gallon.
Another 67 cent drop, and we'll be at Trump's 2018 of $2.12 prices. That were seen around here in GA/SC.

Either way, we are DOWN from Biden's GA/SC high of $3.97 that were seen around here in GA/SC.

GAS Prices under the last 4 Presidents... notice the price cycles?

#2 From a daily standpoint oil might be down but for the last 12 months it's pretty stable. Was lower at times the last 12 .

#3 One percent may be down mathematically speaking, but until there is a trend, it is just noise in the data.

It is enough to inspire feats of journalism, however.

#4 March futures on oil took a tumble about 10am EST.

But as noted by others, this is a short term item.

FWIW, every $1 per barrel drop in oil prices should result in about a 2.5 cent/gallon drop in gasoline prices.

So if the WTI goes down to $60/bar (which is feasible IMO given industry capability and government cooperation), it should be about a 45 cent/gal drop in gasoline prices.
