Week Thoughts on MLPs

Equity offerings, earnings releases, distribution announcements, and some M&A…busy week for MLPs. I’m still digesting it all, and if my son didn’t throw up all over himself (and the car-seat) on the way to school and if my mother in law didn’t break my kitchen sink this afternoon, I might have had more time to read today, and have more thoughts.  Earnings have been pretty good as far as I can tell, distribution announcements very encouraging as well.
Generally, MLPs had a good week and a good month, but in both cases, underperformed the S&P 500, and had the benefit of interest rate tailwinds.

So happy Spring is finally here, feels good to shoot hoops in the backyard without a sweatshirt on…have a good weekend everyone.

Week Thoughts: Market Party, MLPs Stay Home Stocks of all kinds were positive in this pre-holiday week, except for MLPs. Midstream overall lagged the broad market, despite oil and natural gas price gains.

Week Thoughts: Midstream Dusted After a solid start to the week, midstream stocks collapsed over the last four days this week, including big declines Tuesday and Friday.

Week Thoughts: Midstream Bounce Faded It was an up and down week for midstream, but overall positive vs. last week, helped by a huge day Monday. The Supreme Court ruling in favor of pipeline development across the Appalachian Trail seemed to help midstream stocks broadly on Monday.

Week Thoughts: Midstream Paper Jam After an all-time good week across the sector last week, Midstream stocks gave it all back this week. Most of the damage came on Thursday, when the broad equity market dropped 6%.

INFRASTRUCTURE: ANOTHER MIDSTREAM EXIT OPPORTUNITY Midstream stocks and MLPs have bounced 100%+ off the latest multi-year low in late March, and they are enjoying a rare respite from fund outflows, despite fundamental challenges. Without the stress of daily extreme volatility and negative stock performance, now is an ideal time to re-evaluate midstream exposure and consider (or re-consider) listed infrastructure.

Week Thoughts: Midstream Breaks Out with No Brakes Midstream stocks had an all-time great week of stock performance, with double-digit returns across all three indexes, driven by a double-digit gain in oil prices and another surge in the broad stock market.
MLPguy Post
Week Thoughts: MLPs Lose Week, Win May It was a short week with not much news, so midstream and MLPs followed the broad equity market higher. The melt-up of the broader equity market continued, supported by stimulus and optimism that permeated the markets for most of the week as areas of the country opened back up.
MLPguy Post
Week Thoughts: Midstream Refreshed After Pause After pausing last week, the bounce back for midstream resumed in a big way this week. MLPs and the AMUS put up their biggest week of the year on the back of another big week of oil price gains and strength in the broader stock market.

Week Thoughts: Midstream Remains Resilient (Recently) The streak is over, midstream stocks traded down for the first time in 7 weeks. But positive sentiment for energy stocks due to higher oil prices helped MLPs (and to a lesser extent broader midstream stocks) outperform utilities and the S&P 500 slightly this week.
MLPguy Post
Week Thoughts: Midstream Stocks Up on Lower Guidance Midstream rallied for a 6th straight week, but this week was different than the prior 5. This week’s rally was led by larger, more integrated players in the U.S. and Canada, not by gathering & processing MLPs. This week was less about bottom fishing or short covering. Broad equity market strength and a 25% oil price gain helped.
MLPguy Post
Week Thoughts: Midstream Gains Again Midstream and MLPs ran their streak of positive weeks to 5, this time trading up with oil prices even as the broader equity market and utilities were negative. Late in the week, the market threw a couple of pails of cold water on the risk-on euphoria, sending midstream and MLPs lower Thursday and Friday.

Week Thoughts: Midstream Wins Mortal Monday Midstream is on pace for its best month ever after another big positive week. MLPs posted their 4th straight week with more than 7.5% gains, the best 4-week stretch ever (off a low base).
MLPguy Post
Midstream Week Thoughts: Extreme Retracement It was a big week for midstream again, this time better than the broad equity market, which was also up again. MLPs had their 8th best week ever, slightly better than last week’s 9.6% gain. Most of the rally came Friday when AMZ rallied 7%...

Week Thoughts: Market Staycation Supports Midstream Stocks, especially utilities, roared back in a holiday-shortened week, helped by additional stimulus measures and signs of hope from daily COVID-19 statistics. Midstream stocks (and to a lesser degree MLPs) came along for the ride. The midstream performance hierarchy returned to trend this week with AMNA outpacing AMZ.

Week Thoughts: Midstream Beats on Energy Tweet On the back of the best week for oil prices in recorded history, midstream traded up and outperformed the S&P 500 and utilities. MLPs (AMZ) outperformed broader midstream (AMNA) this week after trailing last week and last month and last year.
MLPguy Post
Week Thoughts: Market Relief, MLP Grief The market found some relief on the stimulus bill, but midstream and MLPs lagged this week. Canada midstream helped the AMNA outperform the other midstream indexes. Oil prices fell further, and the lack of places to put oil in this climate is concerning.
MLPguy Post
Midstream Week Thoughts: Remote Detonation While the entire country worked remotely this week, the market had its worst week since 2008. This led to another week of staggering losses in midstream and oil prices. MLPs actually outperformed utilities and the DJIA this week and were roughly inline with the S&P 500 decline.

MIDSTREAM ELEPHANTS COMING HOME TO ROOST The balance between supply and demand of MLP paper has always been delicate. In the past it was a balance between perpetually growing inflows and equity issuance. There were times when equity offerings temporarily overwhelmed investor appetite for MLPs. But as liquidity has diminished in recent years, the structural risks to this group to a stampede to the exits grew larger.
MLPguy Post
Week Thoughts: Market Suspended, MLPs Canceled What a week. The oil price collapse dragged MLPs and midstream stocks down again this week. The group finished down a staggering 30%, which leaves YTD returns in less than 3 months at negative 40-50%.

Week Thoughts: From Russia, No Love for Midstream Midstream captured more downside, selling off again this week but for a different reason. Last week, midstream was down alongside the rest of the stock market. This week the market finished flat, utilities finished sharply higher with a big interest rate drop, but midstream sold off again.
MLPguy Post
Midstream Week Thoughts: Selling Goes Viral Midstream joined in on the biggest and broadest equity selloff in recent memory this week. This was the worst week for the S&P 500 and for MLPs since 2008. Oil dropped to the mid-$40s, interest rates and natural gas prices dropped to fresh lows.
MLPguy Post
Week Thoughts: MLP Erosion Resumes Stocks of all types were negative this short week (even utilities, barely), so despite a rally in commodity prices and a further drop in interest rates, midstream stocks were negative. MLPs were down for a 4th week in the last 5 weeks and were again the worst performing group in midstream.

Week Thoughts: Midstream Positive, Beyond Partnerships (BP) On the back of rebounding oil prices and an ever-higher stock market, midstream indexes were positive this week. In a familiar refrain, the broader AMNA index was well ahead of the MLP Index, reflecting better performance among corporations
