>>> This is a 6% increase from the prior dividend of $0.67. <<<

This is a misrepresentation by streetinsider. Distributions are paid quarterly and the last distribution was $0.70. They meant to say an increase YOY, May to May. This announcement was a 1.4% increase over the last quarter.

A 6% distribution growth rate is still acceptable though but the yield is low for a MLP at 4.0%. KMP is expected to have 5% distribution growth and is yielding 7.1%. With that in mind, EPD has much more capital appreciation of late than KMP. I own them both and plan on keeping them both.
