Quick Summary

Gasoline prices dropped to an average of $3.98 per gallon on Tuesday, down nearly 39 cents from a month prior, driven by falling oil prices and decreased demand. President Trump had predicted in September that gasoline prices would fall post-election, and this prediction seems partly fulfilled as temperatures cool and seasonal demand for fuel decreases. Despite the recent drop, gas remains more expensive than last year's average of $3.07 per gallon.

Story summary

As of November 10, 2026, the national average price for a gallon of gasoline in the U.S. fell below $4 per gallon for the first time since July, according to data from AAA and GasBuddy. The drop came after oil prices plunged, with West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude falling below $90 a barrel on November 7, marking its lowest point since August. Patrick De Haan, a petroleum expert at GasBuddy, predicts that fuel prices will continue to ease into the Thanksgiving holidays due to factors like switching from summer-blend fuels to cheaper winter blends and reduced demand during colder months. Despite this relief at the pump, overall inflation remains high, with consumer prices increasing by 0.4% in October, driven largely by rising housing and grocery costs.

Narrative

Trump tied that prediction to an anticipated end to the war in Iran, saying the country would not be able to sustain its war effort after the election “because they can’t hold out any longer.” Late last month, the Trump administration announced that the first 1 million barrels of Venezuelan oil secured under a new agreement had arrived in Texas.
