Commodity trading is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Commodities and futures generally are volatile and are not suitable for all investors. An investor may lose all or substantially all of an investment. Investing in commodity interests subject each Fund to the risks of its related industry. These risks could result in large fluctuations in the price of a particular Fund's respective shares. Funds that focus on a single sector generally experience greater volatility. For further discussion of these and additional risks associated with an investment in the Funds please read the respective Fund Prospectus before investing.

INVESTING IN USO INVOLVES RISKS SIMILAR TO THOSE INVOLVED WITH AN INVESTMENT DIRECTLY IN THE OIL FUTURES MARKETS, BUT IT IS NOT A PROXY FOR TRADING DIRECTLY IN THE OIL MARKETS AND THESE RISKS ARE REAL. Investing in USO also involves correlation risk. Recent and unprecedented volatility in the crude oil markets in 2020 demonstrates that these risks are real. An investor should consider carefully the risks described below before making an investment decision. See the section of the USO prospectus titled “Risk Factors Involved with an Investment in USO.” Certain of these risk factors are summarized in the Disclosures section of this website.
