The outlook
Brent crude is $107.03 a barrel (3 Nov 2026), +64.6% on a year. EIA's October 2026 outlook has it averaging $72.00 by Dec 2027.
Retail diesel, the fuel of road freight, is $6.292 a gallon, +67.7% on a year; regular gasoline is $4.153, +37.6%.
Wholesale gasoline has fallen further than the pump price has followed, so the pump price is more likely to fall than rise over the next three weeks.
EIA expects residential heating oil to average $5.426 a gallon over the 2026–27 heating season, +37.6% on the 2025–26 season.
Grocery prices are +1.8% on a year; ERS forecasts +2.3% for 2026 as a whole. That forecast implies an average for Oct–Dec 2026 of -0.1% against today, within -1.7 to 1.4: a range that spans both a rise and a fall.
Upstream, ERS's wholesale and farm-level forecasts point up for beef, butter, bread, flour, potatoes and tomatoes, and down for eggs, chicken, pork, milk and cheese.
