From CNBC: Pre-Market Data and Bloomberg futures S&P 500 and DOW futures are unchanged (fair value).
Oil prices were down over the last week with WTI futures at $74.68 per barrel and Brent at $75.58 per barrel. A year ago, WTI was at $41, and Brent was at $43 - so WTI oil prices are UP about 80% year-over-year (oil prices collapsed at the beginning of the pandemic).
Here is a graph from Gasbuddy.com for nationwide gasoline prices. Nationally prices are at $3.14 per gallon. A year ago prices were at $2.20 per gallon, so gasoline prices are up $0.94 per gallon year-over-year.
