Good Morning!

Okay so Iran wants nukes for electricity and some general geo-political house cleaning (Israel is listening)...so crude oil is back over 65 bucks and climbing. Exxon is back over 61 and Valero gas is up 1 over 59 bucks. So we have some upside pressure on crude by 1 dollar.

MLPS are news free this morning but we will be in earnings season soon with Kinder Morgan coming out tomorrow.

Above is a chart going back before 1990...Suppose you invested $ in an aggressive mutual fund like AMERICAN CENTURY ULTRA as opposed to $ in some of the MLPS that were around at the time...or perhaps Exxon. Guess which one did the worst. This btw is not a knock on A.C. ULTRA...but just one of those interesting charts that speaks volume.

I agree with your point, but I believe that Yahoo mutual fund charts are not adjusted for distributions, so the charts understate returns for any mutual funds that pay distributions.
