Gas is highly volatile on a good day and we're coming off of an exceptionally high spike. 20% off of a high that's ~2x what it was a year ago and ~3x what it was a year before that. Gas prices will likely continue on a generally downward arc. The shape/timeline of the arc nobody knows and how low it will go nobody knows. I doubt it will hit the 2s nationally.

Energy in the general sense underpins the entire economy but there is so much more on top of that making inflation more complex.
