Thanks Tom, Good trading,

Increasing as expected.
.475/share distribution, return of capital, mostly tax free, ex date 7/28, pay date 8/12.

Core shares are free now from long holding and I also flip 3-5K less than 1 year held shares in between payouts knowing the safety and steady performance long run, and that 1200 plus institutions are in EPD. They work the capital in between payouts too. Once any shares reach a year mine change to core, with 15% instead of double that cap gain upon sale.

Recently a Seeking Alpha article compared EPD to ET and picked ET as their yield is a bit better now. Opinions are best looking at what the writer is paid. Mine are free. Do your own comparison, and factor the SA paid to write set...

ET's history is rocky, and could never match the steady well managed safety of EPD. EPD plans for worst case markets and has enough cash in reserve to cover all events and yet grow.

Kelsy Warren or founder Dan Duncan's Daughter Randa with CEO Jim Teague. The latter hands down.

ET may be a good flipping candidate when it falls back into the 9's.It is down about 4X more than EPD over the last 4 years. You can control more shares with ET at 10 than EPD at 25.

Thanks for your input,
Sleep Well!
