Pinned straw:
I've been sitting on this for a little while and it reflects my current thinking around the current market. The thesis however very simplistic. i don't like anything to complex.
In my mind, our energy use will continue to grow and the cost of energy will grow due to supply demand factors, APA clips the ticket and pays consistent progressive distribution. it's sitting below is 200SMA and so after mulling it over on sunday I have chosen to take a RL and SM position. Risks are in the demand use, debt overload from bigger acquisitions, weather or system breakdown.
Enough for me to take a small position, but together with SOL, SHL, BKW, TLS helps provide some dividend income over the next 12-24mnths, we will see ;)
hope that gives you some insight into my thinking
