United States Oil Fund
Top weight at 7.37%, up 5.6% from 6.98%. Both theses that cite it moved its way: Persistent energy premium stepped 0.85 to 0.90 as
the Saudi bypass pipeline was shut and
the corridor talks collapsed, and
the alignment raised it in both baskets (0.86 to 0.88 in energy, 0.68 to 0.72 in stagflation) on
a 3.7% window gain and
a CPI energy index up 16.3% year-over-year. Draws on five distinct drivers and dedupes with
Stagflation risk and Fed independence stress only on
inflation-debasement, counted once at the stagflation thesis's stronger loading. Still alternate-vehicle by role because the equities re-tracked crude this window and XLE kept the primary slot.
