Retail gasoline prices finally ticked down again
I finally saw a tick down in the retail price of gasoline on Sunday after rising steadily for over a month. One day is not enough to indicate a trend, but I suspect that prices rose into the high-traffic Thanksgiving holiday period, and may now pull back again, at least a little.
If nothing else, the persistently high level of gasoline prices strongly suggests that the economy has some serious strength behind it even if not to the level of outright booming.
I am tempted to up my estimate of Q4 GDP growth to 2.5% from 1.7%, especially in the face of fairly strong Thanksgiving weekend retail sales.
