  • Economic Fallout and Market Risks of $200-a-Barrel Oil
    March 13, 2026, 6:31 PM EDT. WTI crude oil at $200 per barrel would trigger a profound shock to the U.S. economy, moving it beyond a soft landing into a structural crisis. Gasoline prices could top $6.50 a gallon, slashing over $400 billion in consumer spending, with discretionary sectors like retail and travel hardest hit. Lower-income families risk energy poverty, potentially raising credit defaults. Economists from Vanguard and RBC forecast a sharp GDP contraction of 1.5% to 2.5%, driven by 'cost-push' inflation as production costs rise while demand erodes.
