As crude oil prices spike — with Brent crude jumping over 19% in just a few weeks — investors are once again eyeing oil as a smart way to diversify their portfolios. If you’re wondering how to actually invest in oil through ETFs, what the risks are, and which funds to consider, watch our full video below for a clear, straightforward breakdown.
Oil tends to have a lower correlation with equities, making it a useful hedge during periods of market stress or rising inflation. But oil investing isn’t one-size-fits-all. From futures-based funds to equity-style energy ETFs, the options vary widely in how they behave and what they cost.
Whether you’re looking to add resilience to your portfolio or simply explore a new asset class, oil ETFs are worth a closer look — as long as you understand what you’re getting into.
