Pipelines are often set up as Regulated Investment Companies (RICs). They pay astronomically high dividends because they are required to pay out 90% of Taxable income. So to grow, they often have to sell more stock, often via a Rights Offering which can lead to sudden and severe dilution. Or they may simply load up on dangerous debt.

Dilution or debt, pick your poison.

Here's the ugly 7-year chart for NGL Energy Partners. Tons of retirees including many IHUBbers bought this bowser for its once-showy dividend.
