Effects of Maduro Capture on Gas Prices in the USA: With everyone talking about Venezuela’s oil reserves—the world’s largest—I’m getting tons of questions about pump prices. Short answer: don’t expect big changes at the gas station right away.Analysts predict a small oil price bump early this week ($2-5 per barrel) from uncertainty, but longer-term, if stability returns and U.S. firms invest, i
t could actually lower prices by boosting global supply. Venezuela’s heavy crude is key for certain fuels, and Trump mentioned tapping reserves to fund rebuilding. Right now, U.S. gas averages around $2.80-3.00/gallon (low for recent years), and domestic production shields us somewhat. But if chaos drags on, volatility could hit.
