USO

Oil prices have risen by nearly 30% since June due to supply constraints from major oil-producing nations and resilience in the U.S. economy. The United States Oil Fund ETF (NYSE:USO) breached the $91 per barrel mark on Tuesday. Sustained oil prices above $100 per barrel could have major implications on the global economy. The resurgence in oil prices is posing a threat to overall inflation, with energy holding a 7% weighting in the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) basket. Investors expect the Federal Reserve to keep rates steady, but rising oil prices could challenge this expectation.
