US Energy Markets (Crude & Natural Gas)
macro_energyLatest U.S. energy market data from the Energy Information Administration: WTI crude price, crude oil inventories, and natural gas storage.
Combines three EIA series that usually require separate lookups: the WTI Cushing spot price, weekly U.S. crude oil ending stocks (with week-over-week percent change), and weekly natural gas underground storage (with week-over-week percent change).
When to use: energy-sector context, inflation pass-through analysis (energy prices feed CPI/PCE), trading around the weekly EIA inventory releases.
When NOT to use: you need regional/PADD-level breakdowns, refined product prices (gasoline, diesel), or non-U.S. energy data.
Args: none.
