Recent themes I’ve been tracking
A sampling of the kinds of questions I’m digging into across Substack, GasBuddy, and media interviews.
Demand, production & price relief
How record U.S. production, refining runs, and softer demand have combined to pull prices lower, and what could change that trajectory.
Refining bottlenecks & regional pain
Why regions like California and the West Coast remain vulnerable to refinery outages and structural capacity changes, and how that shows up at the pump.
Policy, geopolitics & price risk
Elections, OPEC decisions, hurricanes, and conflicts — translating headline risk into realistic scenarios for gasoline and diesel prices.
