Williams Pipeline(WPZ) is the biggest gainer outside of the Northern Borders Partners (NBP) up 1.13. MLPS remain mostly higher with gains averaging between 40 and 90 cents. Conference call at NBP is underway...the stock is up 5 and sits over 49 dollars. ONEOK is up 3 and change as they just love this asset deal.

The overall market has turned lower as Bernanke continues his congressional grilling and the ten year which fell to 4.56 at one point this morning has risen back to 4.62 right now.

Just noticed today that most of the GP's are down today while most of the LP's are up. Not sure if this means anything other than a knee jerk response to the Northern Borders deal...or perhaps there is no meaning to it.
