Summary

  • Energy Transfer LP is well positioned to benefit from rising U.S. natural gas demand, especially due to its Marcellus presence and ongoing infrastructure expansion.
  • Despite limited near-term catalysts from oil prices, ET's cash flows remain resilient and are not directly tied to commodity price swings.
  • The company offers a high, tax-advantaged yield (7.29%) with strong distribution coverage, making it attractive for income-focused investors.
  • While unit price growth may be muted short-term, ET stock remains a solid yield play with long-term growth potential as natural gas demand increases.
  • This idea was discussed in more depth with members of my private investing community, Energy Profits in Dividends. Learn More »
