Up 2.89 and a few ticks off the highs of the day as we have run now from 290 to 304 in 3 1/2 trading days. Nice 1 point moves in Buckeye Partners (BPL), Energy Transfer (ETP) Nustar (NS) and Alliance Holdings (ARLP). Oneok LP (OKS) and Williams (WPZ) also up nearly 1 point.

I've noticed some slow bleeding today in Crosstex (XTEX) and Linn Energy (LINE). It isn't so much that they are down hard. Its more like a stream of small sales along the way. Looks like someone has been liquidating a position. However Linn has now turned higher so it could be that its just a matter of the selling to play itself out. We're at that time of year when some big holders may be closing out positions for the year. Mutual funds for example need to clean up their books by 10/31.
