About US Regular All Formulations Gas Price
What it measures
US Regular Gasoline Price (FRED series GASREGW) reports the average retail price of regular-grade gasoline in dollars per gallon, collected weekly by the Energy Information Administration through a survey of filling stations across the country. Published every Monday, it covers all formulations of regular gasoline and includes taxes, providing the most timely official measure of what American drivers actually pay at the pump.
Why it matters
Gasoline is the most visible price in the economy, posted on street corners nationwide, and it disproportionately shapes household inflation expectations and consumer sentiment. Every sustained move transfers billions of dollars between fuel spending and discretionary consumption, affecting retailers and restaurants. Economists use the weekly series to nowcast the CPI energy component, and its political salience means it also influences policy decisions on strategic reserves.
How to read it
Pump prices follow crude oil with a lag of one to several weeks, rising faster than they fall, a pattern sometimes described as rockets and feathers. Strong seasonality matters: summer driving demand and the spring switch to summer-blend fuel lift prices predictably. Refinery outages can decouple gasoline from crude, so compare the two to judge whether refining margins or oil itself is driving a move.
