Gas prices have now fallen for more than a month. Falling gas prices could be good news for political and social stability.Jason Henry for The New York Times Some good news After months of gas prices making life more expensive, they have quietly started to go down — providing financial relief for many Americans. The average nationwide price this week was [$4.49 a gallon](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkvP9DP0S8aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZWlhLmdvdi9wZXRyb2xldW0vZ2FzZGllc2VsLz9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD05JmVtYz1lZGl0X25uXzIwMjIwNzIyJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTY3MzA2Jm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD05OTIyOSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYtVDetpizDsB41IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA), down from a peak of $5.01 in June. The average price of gas is still about $1.30 higher than it was a year ago, but it has now fallen for more than a month. Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration That is welcome news for consumers: Higher gas prices affect not just people filling their cars but also, through higher transportation costs, the price of almost everything else. Falling prices are also potentially good news for political and social stability. Because gas prices are so visible — posted on giant signs across the country — they have an outsize impact on how Americans feel things are going, experts say. The sentiment can extend beyond financial concerns. Consider Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, which caused gas prices to spike in the West as Europe vowed to stop relying on Russian oil and gas. American and European leaders have worried since the war began that rising gas prices could hurt public support for efforts against Russia, because people could come to see the personal cost as too great. So falling gas prices could help sustain public support for Ukraine. Historically, rising gas prices have also hurt incumbent political leaders. Sure enough, approval ratings for [President Biden](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkvP9DP0T2aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZGF0YWZvcnByb2dyZXNzLm9yZy9ibG9nLzIwMjEvMTEvMTcvZG8tdm90ZXJzLWRpc2FwcHJvdmUtb2YtYmlkZW4tb3ItcmlzaW5nLWdhcy1wcmljZXM_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIyMDcyMiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD02NzMwNiZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9OTkyMjkmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmLVQ3raYsw7AeNSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) and [European leaders](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkvP9DP0TQaHR0cHM6Ly9tb3JuaW5nY29uc3VsdC5jb20vZ2xvYmFsLWxlYWRlci1hcHByb3ZhbC8_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9OSZlbWM9ZWRpdF9ubl8yMDIyMDcyMiZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD02NzMwNiZubD10aGUtbW9ybmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9OTkyMjkmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3I3NlY3Rpb24tMlcDbnl0Qgpi1UN62mLMOwHjUht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) have fallen as the prices of gas and other goods have increased.

But gas prices also get at something deeper than partisan politics or any individual policy debate: They help dictate the public mood. As the pandemic has waned, Americans have hoped for a return to normal. But rising gas prices and inflation, along with an increase in violent crime and the war in Ukraine, instead feed into a [broader sense of chaos and anomie](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkvP9DP0TjaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8wMy8yMy9icmllZmluZy9jcmltZS1zaG9vdGluZ3MtYW5vbWllLWFtZXJpY2EuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD05JmVtYz1lZGl0X25uXzIwMjIwNzIyJmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTY3MzA2Jm5sPXRoZS1tb3JuaW5nJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD05OTIyOSZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYtVDetpizDsB41IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) already fueled by Covid.

Continued Covid disruptions, particularly in China, have also played a role; lockdowns lead to fewer people traveling, further reducing global demand for oil and gas. The process is playing out slowly — a result of what experts call the “rocket and feather” effect: Gas prices tend to rise quickly, like a rocket, and fall more slowly, like a feather. Gas stations are quicker to increase prices and slower to reduce them to maximize profits. And while rising gas prices drive consumers to comparison-shop more, falling prices ease the need to do so — reducing competitive pressure. What’s next Since gas prices fall more slowly than they rise, they still have room in the coming weeks to drop further — to catch up with reduced oil prices, said Christopher Knittel, an economist at M.I.T. And as strange as it may sound, a weakening economy could help further reduce gas prices. The Federal Reserve has recently increased interest rates, raising the cost of borrowing in an effort to pull down demand and tame inflation. That could lead to more unemployment, but also to a slowdown in price increases after months of record inflation. Beyond a few weeks, the future of gas prices is less certain. “There are still risks out there,” said Rachel Ziemba, an energy expert at the Center for a New American Security. The European Commission proposed rationing natural gas this week.Janos Kummer/Getty Images Among them: More atrocities in Ukraine [could further push](~/AAAAAQA~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~) Europe to stop buying Russian oil and gas. Russia could retaliate against Western sanctions by withholding its shipments, tightening worldwide supply again. Climate change continues to make oil and gas companies cautious about boosting production too much. China’s economy could improve and increase demand, particularly if Covid restrictions ease.
