NEGATIVE IMPACT
The United States Oil Fund (USO) is likely to experience a short-term negative impact due to the reported turbulence in OPEC+ talks, as it tracks the daily price movements of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil.
As USO's performance is directly tied to crude oil prices, the reported difficulties in OPEC+ negotiations and Saudi Arabia's stance on production levels could lead to lower oil prices, thereby negatively affecting USO's share price in the short term.
