Back in full swing now...did not miss much but a couple of standouts. Crosstex (XTXI) is continuing skyward now near 81 up 1.58 on no news. Holly Partners meanwhile is down nearly 1 on no news either.

Otherwise the group is mixed. Oil stocks have broken out as they attempt a close over 1100 on the XOI....it appears it will be successful today. No corporate news to speak of in any of the companies in the the MLP group...no upgrades or downgrades. Energy Transfer is up 33 cents after the company yesterday upped its numbers for 2006.

On Teppco and the on again off again merger speculation regarding Enterprise Partners (EPD). Stock is ex-distribution today and is behaving quite well. I think if the merger idea is a true no-go the stock should have imploded but its not doing that. Again if the company's outlook is good come quarter reporting time next week and they say something about growing the distribution again....you could see buyers come in and support this.

On the watch and will report as things develope.
