Economy

The EIA's March 2025 Short-Term Energy Outlook (STEO) forecasts that crude oil prices will rise by $5 per barrel to $75/b by Q3 2025 due to decreasing production from Iran and Venezuela. However, oil prices are expected to fall to $68/b in 2026 as oil inventories increase. Natural gas inventories are expected to fall below 1.7 trillion cubic feet at the end of March, which is 10% below the previous five-year average, due to cold weather. The Henry Hub price forecast for 2025 is $4.20 per million British thermal units (MMBtu), an 11% increase from last month's estimate. The 2026 forecast is $4.50/MMBtu, an 8% increase. Total U.S. electricity sales are expected to increase by 3% in 2025, led by strong growth in the residential and commercial sectors. Electricity generation is also expected to grow 3% this year (vs. 2% forecast last month) and another 1% in 2026. The STEO did not take into account the potential impact of tariffs.

 

The Labor Department reported that the consumer price index increased (+0.2%) in February, a deceleration from (+0.5%) in January and (+0.4%) in December. The all items index rose (+2.8%) over the last 12 months, 0.2 percentage points lower than January's report. The shelter index increased (+0.3%), contributing to almost half of the monthly all items index increase. Energy rose (+0.2%), as a (-1.0%) seasonally adjusted gasoline price decrease was offset by fuel oil, electricity, and piped gas increases. The food index also rose (+0.2%), following a (+0.4%) increase the previous month. Core CPI inflation, excluding food and energy, rose (+0.2%) in February, following a (+0.4%) January increase.

Final demand services saw its largest decline since July 2024, falling (-0.2%) and ending a six-month streak of increases. Margins for machinery and vehicle wholesaling decreased (-1.4%), accounting for over forty percent of the decline in final demand services. Final demand goods advanced (+0.3%), marking the fifth straight increase. Chicken egg prices, which soared (+53.6%), accounted for two-thirds of the increase in the final demand goods.
