Upstream MLPs and Canadian Royalty Trusts: High Return, High Risk?

Also, what are your thoughts on the ultrashort ETFs on Treasuries? PST and TBT. If one thinks Treasuries rates are due to rise, wouldn't the shorting strategy work? Maybe just as some insurance?

Upstream MLPs and Canadian Royalty Trusts: High Return, High Risk?

Thanks. Your logic seems very good. I have someone who has been recommending several bond funds...AWF, BNA, RCS, TEI, EFL. I just worry that they have had a run as interest rates have floated down and will suffer as they rise. Also have recommendations on quarterly interest bonds and quarterly income preferreds (QUIBs and QUIPs) allong with some other "hybrids" like OTT, ATPWF and others. Also, any interest in something like PJL (Verizon 7.625% 12/30 mini bonds?

I'll take a look at your previous post and this last one and pull together some ideas. Thanks for the input.
