We review a large body of the empirical literature focusing on the relation between petroleum
product prices and oil prices and discuss the evidence on the direction of causality between crude
oil prices and petroleum product prices. In addition, we survey the literature on the much-debated
question of whether petroleum product prices respond differently to increases versus decreases in
oil prices, which Bacon (1991) labeled the “rockets and feathers” phenomenon.
