Good morning and i hope everyone's Christmas was a great one. I'm coming off a double shift and am so tired i can't hit the keys on the keyboard right. Nonetheless MLP's are higher as the index is up over 1 point and we have lots of nice gains in a host of issues. We do have some moves in the upgrade downgrade department as Lehman starts Constellation Partners (CEP) at overweight but the stock moved last week in anticipation and is down a few pennies today. Key Banc cuts Linn Energy to buy from agressive buy. If it drops to the 30 level i'm backing the truck up again.

Oil was higher and now trades lower...nat gas getting hit hard down 40 cents. All kinds of year end nonsense going on over the next few days which may offer some trading opportunities. I'll post a few things to watch for once i get my head together.
