Gas, groceries and flights likely stay pricey after Iran conflict ends
TL;DR
Analysts say relief from high prices for gas, groceries, and air travel won’t arrive quickly even if the Iran war ends, because energy shocks cascade through food costs, fertilizer supply, and shipping; US grocery prices are projected to rise about 3.2% this year, while fertilizer and fuel costs remain elevated and freight surcharges persist, keeping inflationary pressure in play into 2026.
