#5 - United States 12 Month Oil Fund (NYSEARCA:USL)
In times of high inflation, investors flee to energy stocks. The world needs energy in all its forms and that makes energy stocks a defensive play. That being said, this can be a volatile sector and investors have many ways to get exposure to energy markets. The United States 12 Month Oil Fund (NYSEARCA:USL) is a reasonable way to consider profiting from a commodity that will be in demand even as the nation builds a clean energy infrastructure.
The fund’s goal is to reflect the changes in the price of Brent Crude Oil in percentage terms. The fund is up 61% in 2022 and 168% over the last five years. However, it does have an expense ratio of 0.86% which can be considered a bit high.
