After the election I started a thread predicting that the fighting in Ukraine and Palestine would be over by June 2025. Others said it would be over as soon as DJT took office. Maybe I need to slow down on the optimism

No, I don't, since Trump himself said it would take longer than that.

Zero chance that happens.

I'm predicting $10. All the drama queens haven't been ridiculously wrong - they just haven't been right yet.

Gas prices hit a low generally between December and February, so if Iran is wrapped up average ppg should be much lower.
It was even lower in Biden's last December.

Roughly, $1 change in crude oil shifts pump prices by 2.4 cents.
Since the beginning of this year, how crude oil is refined and delivered to international endpoints have changed dramatically. Oil today is at $78, just about the bottom price between 2022 to 2024. Before those dates, it was in the $46 to $65 range, excluding COVID.
Given the above, the price at the pump should be back in the $2.90 to $3.25 range. However, what is factoring into today’s price is the uncertainty of Strait of Hormuz AND the rerouting of crude oil sources to refineries to the end points mentioned above. Given that pump prices tend to shot up very quickly when crude oil price spikes, but falls down slowly as stations protect their profit margins when crude drops, we are experiencing that slow fall.
By Xmas, given the same circumstances today geo-politically and economics, I believe price at the pump will be down 25 to 50 cents from today. Strait works itself out and refineries don’t blow up, maybe better.
Long-term, I can see oil back in the $50-$60 range. Alternatively routes to the Straits, other refineries outside of the Middle East come online, alternative energies and so on.

Price per barrel already back down....
Whatever Trump needs to do between now and November to keep the price down, he will...

Remember when Taco Bell had the 59, 79, and 99 cent menu?

$3.96 in 2012 is equivalent in purchasing power to approximately $5.76 today.
Gas is high as frick when a Dem is president.
