Sorry for the error...DGR of course is dividend growth rate, but clearly MLP's don't have dividends but rather return of capital. Lord, we don't need THAT discussion again! Anyway, my point was that their distribution increases have been less than stellar, but the high current rate seems to make up for it. I not only look at the current secondary, but at what the company did with previous money absorbed from previous secondaries. If they are using the money to "return capital" then no thanks. If they are using it for future growth, acquisitions, etc., then I am interested. A company like EPD rarely if ever issues a secondary without a reason that will sooner or later be accretive to shareholders. Others are not so easy to read.
