UGA
United States Gasoline Fund LPUGA Fund Description
UGA holds near-month NYMEX futures contracts on RBOB gasoline.
UGA Factset Analytics Insight
UGA offers viable exposure to gasoline prices, but it's not particularly cheap. The fund charges 72 bps annually, on par with other single-commodity funds. Fund assets aren't huge, but are sufficient to keep closure risk away. Still, the fund trades better than its AUM suggests with decent spreads and adequate volume holding down all-in costs. Like our benchmark, UGA holds near-month futures on RBOB gasoline traded on the NYMEX. UGA is structured as a commodities pool, so cap gains are taxed at a blended 60% long-term/40% short-term rate regardless of the holding period, and investors receive a K-1 at tax time. In all, UGA is a decent choice for gasoline exposure, which is fortunate given its status as the sole ETP in the space.
