The United States Oil Fund (NYSE Arca: USO) is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that attempts to track the price of West Texas Intermediate Light Sweet Crude Oil.[1][2] It is distinguished from an exchange-traded note (ETN) since it represents an ownership claim on underlying securities that the fund has packaged.[3] USO invests in oil future contracts that are traded on regulated futures exchanges.[4]
