  • The Republican-controlled House last night approved a bill saying a presidential permit was not needed to approve the Canada-to-Nebraska leg of the Keystone XL pipeline (TRP), but the vote may have emboldened opposition, as 50 fewer Democrats backed the bill than a similar one a year ago. The bill's fate in the Senate is uncertain, and Pres. Obama has promised a veto. [View news story]
    IMO, Obama must approve this pipeline. The harsh reality of his vetoing, ultimately, this bill should be enough to make Americans realize how wrong this man is, for our times. And oil 'justice.'

  • While controversy continues over the northern leg of the Keystone XL pipeline, construction of the $2.3B southern section connecting the Cushing, Okla., hub with the Texas coast is more than 75% complete and proceeding on schedule, TransCanada (TRP -0.7%) says. The 485-mile southern leg will be able to move 700K bbl/day of oil when completed. [View news story]
    I'm all in for this pipeline.

    Such a big to-do over TRP, when the same EPA, Greenpeace, etc.,
    said almost the same things about the Alaska Pipeline, years ago.
    And they landed hard for being wrong.

  • Texas on Friday became the latest state to sue BP, Halliburton (HAL) and others tied to the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill, alleging the parties "engaged in willful and wanton misconduct." The Texas lawsuit asks for money for various reasons including sales and hotel occupancy taxes the state says it didn't receive because visitors didn't go to its Gulf Coast communities due to the spill. [View news story]
    Missing 'hotel occupancy'...that is beyond a doubt, the most money-hungry statement I've read.

    After reading all the comments: How does this affect dividends, except for the dividends going down?

    That was certainly welcome, and tomorrow is another day. Now that I have something to work with I can sharpen my pencil and get to work.
    Thank you very much.

    After reading all of the above comments, I feel rather in a fog. But, understandably, as I have only traded for 5 years. If you would not mind a newbie's question:
    What would, in your estimate, be a perhaps good price for BPT?

    Thank you for any help.

    I see IEP met a large resistance at $68, and is now at $67 comfortably.
    Thank you for your reply. Will look into CVR today.

    What is your 'take' on IEP? This MLP just saved my account in a large way.
    Of course, I'm into energy stocks, and waiting, waiting.
    Thanks!

  • There's value to be found in Icahn Enterprises (IEP +11%), Carl Icahn's publicly traded MLP which has earned nearly 20% annually over the past decade, Barron's says in a weekend article. At $55, the units trade at a discount to the $64 sum-of-the-parts value and yield 7%, reflecting a recently initiated $4/share annual payout. IEP’s largest holding is an 82% stake, worth $3.6B, in CVR Energy (CVI +0.3%). [View news story]
    And that 82% in CVR is worth every nickel, since 8 a.m. this morning.

    Didn't I read, lately, that CLMT had teamed up with MDU to build a pipeline through the Bakken from Canada to the Gulf?
