why UNG more popular than USO?
- Thread starter increasenow
- Start date
because people are obsessed with what they've lost money with.
1) UNG is lower-priced than USO. Traders can be attracted to cheaper stocks.
2) Natural gas is intrinsically more volatile than crude oil.
3) Natural gas is a domestic commodity with clearer fundamentals.
Crude oil is an international commodity with opaque fundamentals.
4) Natural gas is perceived as being an alternative energy source, not a fossil fuel with growing demand prospects.
5) Natural gas can be seasonally more volatile during the Winter compared to crude oil.
