Our read on UGA
CIts energy-futures cohort is wall-to-wall crude. UGA aims at the refined stuff you actually pump, tracking front-month NYMEX RBOB gasoline futures inside a commodity pool that has run since 2008.
The fund seeks daily NAV percentage changes to reflect daily percentage changes in the spot price of RBOB gasoline for delivery to New York Harbor, measured through the Benchmark Futures Contract. It targets average daily tracking within plus or minus 10% over 30 successive valuation days.
Why people hold it
- A direct line to pump fuel: the benchmark is the near-month NYMEX gasoline (RBOB) contract for New York Harbor delivery, rolling to the next month within two weeks of expiry.sec.govuscfinvestments.com
- Trading since 2008 under the same passive mandate, so the mechanism has been through multiple gasoline booms and busts rather than being a new launch.
- The prospectus puts a number on tracking: average daily NAV moves are targeted within plus or minus 10% of the benchmark's over 30 successive valuation days.sec.gov
Worth knowing
- At 1.08%, fees land mid-pack among energy futures funds, while crude-focused peers such as OILK (0.69%) and USO (0.86%) charge less.
- A commodity pool, not a 1099 fund: shareholders receive a Schedule K-1 at tax time, and the fund does not intend to pay cash distributions.uscfinvestments.comsec.gov
- It trades lightly next to the big crude funds, and the front-month roll means it follows the futures curve, not the price on the sign at your local station.sec.gov
