GAZ and UNG: A Classical Gas


An intriguing divergence for two funds that are purported to have a .99 correlation and are tracking essentially the same thing.

Right now, for example, UNG is down .67% for the day and GAZ is up .61%.

UNG is considerably more 'liquid' as they say on the Street. Does that make it a more efficient price discovery mechanism?

Or more amenable for gaming the retail markets?
