This article is from 2020. My shares of USO are up over $1000 now. I plan to hold them for less than 1 week though to minimize exposure to management fees and contango. I’m not sure what is a better investment for this right now.
(2020)
Dated but Beware of Oil ETFs: WTI = ~$125 & USO(lead "Benchmark...(WTI)") = ~$85. Google: Contango.
On the other hand, the return on USOI isn't bad.

OPEC can't wait too long since the last thing they need is for their largest consumers to go into recession due to high energy prices -not after 2 years of a pandemic. Oil prices will find an equilibrium. They will probably be higher than before the war but not as high as they are now.
This will happen. It will just seem like an eternity since we need them to be lower now.
