Gasoline is the demand side of the weekly petroleum report, and nothing else gives you as clear a weekly read on how much America is driving. Draws into the summer driving season push pump prices up and tighten crack spreads, meaning the margin a refiner earns turning crude into fuel. A build nobody was expecting says the opposite, that consumer demand is rolling over. Refining margins trade off this one line as much as they trade off crude.
The price on the sign at the gas station is the piece of inflation consumers actually see, so a run of gasoline draws feeds headline CPI expectations and breakevens, at the margin. Nobody cares about one noisy week. See it scored live on the Helious desk, or read how the standard-deviation surprise is computed.
