$ET I'm always surprised at how many people here are disappointed in the weakness of the unit price. It's almost as if they fundamentally don't understand what they are buying. ET is a MLP that has consistently raised its quarterly distribution. People typically don't buy a MLP for price appreciation as much as they buy it to DRIP the distribution for many, many years. Price appreciation is the cherry, the distribution is the cake and icing. MLPs are more for estate planning and tax benefits that you pass on to heirs. Even crazier is seeing people post about trading a MLP.
