Our read on DBO

ETF.net Research

BOil exposure with a roll rule. DBO tracks a WTI crude futures index whose Optimum Yield design shops across contract months instead of camping in the front month, and it has run that way since 2007.

Stated mandate

The fund seeks to track positive or negative changes in the level of the DBIQ Optimum Yield Crude Oil Index Excess Return.

Why people hold it

  1. 01The index picks the contract month its rules score as most favorable rather than automatically buying the nearest one, a design built to soften the drag of an upward-sloping futures curve.invesco.com
  2. 02Charges 0.81% a year, meaningfully below the median for energy-futures funds in its group.
  3. 03Launched in 2007 and traded through multiple oil booms and busts, it sits in the upper half of a small, well-known peer group.

Worth knowing

  1. 01It's a commodity pool, so tax paperwork follows partnership rules rather than ordinary fund reporting. Peer OILK charges 0.69% and is built to skip that step.
  2. 02You own a futures index, not a barrel. Results track the DBIQ Optimum Yield Crude Oil Index Excess Return and can diverge from headline spot crude.
  3. 03One commodity, one curve. There are no operating businesses underneath to cushion a move in crude, and payouts come on an annual or semiannual schedule.
