The MLP index is down .66 being weighed down by Kinder Morgan Partners (KMP) and Buckeye Partners (BPL) which are both down fractions...Buckeye down harder with the RBC non recomendation this morning. Fractional losses on the board with most issues but there are a few winners like Williams (WPZ) which is up 75 cents and over 42 on 2 recomendations including an RBC top pick. Copano(CPNO) is up 1 on the stock split. Markwest (MWP), Hiland LP (HLND) and Atlas Pipeline (APL) are up fractions.

E V Partners was up last week and Monday morning on a Barrons mention. It traded this week as high as 27.87 but it has pulled back to 25.85 late Tuesday and has been within a dime of that figure for 2 1/2 days. This may be a good entry point.
