Goldman Sachs researchers are projecting oil prices to jump nearly 20% next year. AdvertisementAs the holiday season approaches, drivers are experiencing a welcome respite at gas stations, but those savings will likely go away in the new year. Last week, West Texas Intermediate crude, a benchmark for oil prices, dipped to approximately $73 per barrel, a significant 20% drop from its late September peak of $94. "The big surprise of 2023 is stronger than expected non-OPEC supply growth, which we think will slow heading into 2024," Struyven said. And what the US economy doesn't need in the near future is Americans tightening their budgets after their summer of fun and the holiday spending season.

Oil prices are surging again, but the Strategic Petroleum Reserve remains near 40-year lows. Last year, the Biden administration drained 180 million barrels from the SPR as oil prices soared. Flooding the market with all that supply helped bring oil prices down — and helped cool inflation, which had shot up as well. But while it has ticked up slightly, the level remains near 40-year lows at about 350 million barrels. The stock market has started to feel the ripple effects from rising oil prices.
