Elevated U.S. retail gasoline prices near the $4.50 national average reflect sustained crude oil supply disruptions stemming from the Iran conflict and closure of the Strait of Hormuz since February, which lifted benchmark WTI prices and translated directly into pump costs. Weekly gains of 25–30 cents per gallon in early May outpaced seasonal norms, with AAA data showing the May 2026 average already exceeding prior-year levels by more than $1.30 amid reduced global refining flexibility. EIA projections place regular gasoline at roughly $3.64 for the month, yet real-time market levels remain well above that baseline due to geopolitical risk premia and firm summer-driving demand. With only two weeks until resolution, traders are monitoring any potential de-escalation signals or inventory builds that could cap further upside before end-of-month settlement.
