Description: USO United States Oil Fund February 25, 2026

United States Oil Fund LP (USO) is a U.S.-based commodity-focused ETF that primarily tracks the performance of futures contracts on light, sweet crude oil, alongside exposure to other petroleum products such as diesel, gasoline, and natural gas.

Key recent metrics: the fund’s expense ratio stands at 0.83%, its 30-day average trading volume is roughly 5 million shares, and as of February 2026 the NAV per share is $22.14. USO’s price has closely mirrored the benchmark WTI crude price, which has been trading near $80 per barrel after a 12% year-to-date gain driven by tightening global supply, OPEC⁺ production cuts, and resilient U.S. demand despite higher interest-rate environments.
