You're telling me the demand for gas went up during the time period when people were mandated to stay home? That doesn't make any sense.

No, I am not.
Demand (and prices) went down in March 2020, but had significantly risen in line with increased economic activity by February 2022.
Consequently, it shouldn't be surprising that there was a large price increase over the period bookended by those months.

I am not in the US, but I was very much at home in March 2020, homeschooling kids, and very much out and about in Feb 2022, taking them to birthday parties. I am in the "lockdown king" country of Australia, maybe only second to New Zealand in the zealousness of lockdowns.
