United States Brent Oil Fund LP
BNO is the United States Brent Oil Fund, LP — an exchange-traded product designed to provide exposure to Brent crude oil prices by investing in front-month Brent futures and related contracts. It does not hold physical oil; returns come from changes in futures prices and can diverge from spot Brent because of tracking error, roll yield and funding costs. BNO is often used by investors and traders seeking direct commodity exposure or a way to hedge positions sensitive to global oil prices. The fund can be highly volatile and is influenced by supply–demand dynamics, geopolitics, OPEC decisions and macroeconomic trends. Fees, liquidity and futures contango or backwardation can materially affect performance. This information is educational and not personal financial advice — energy commodities can fall as well as rise, so consider suitability, time horizon and risk tolerance before investing.
