NEGATIVE IMPACT
The United States Oil Fund (USO) may be impacted by the higher than expected crude stock build reported by API.
The United States Oil Fund (USO) is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that aims to track the price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) light, sweet crude oil. A higher than expected crude stock build indicates an oversupply in the market, which could put downward pressure on oil prices and consequently on USO's performance.
