I'm searching for ETF in MLP and found this: Anyone has traded this or other ETF in oil/gas sectors? >> July 20, 2007 ETF Launch: Bear Stearns ETF Based on MLP's (BSR, BSC) Bear Stearns (NYSE: BSC) issued their first Exchange Traded Note (ETN) that allows investors to buy a diversified group of MLP's (Master Limited Partnerships): the BearLinx Alerian MLP Select Index ETN on the NYSE, under the ticker symbol BSR. The BearLinx Alerian MLP Select Index ETN (NYSE:BSR) is based on the Alerian MLP Select Index whose components are publicly listed energy MLPs engaging in the exploration, marketing, mining, processing, production, storage or transportation of any mineral or natural resource. With 25 of the 37 components in the Alerian MLP Select Index listed on the NYSE, the BearLinx Alerian MLP Select Index ETN’s top five companies by weight include, Enterprise Product Partners (NYSE:EPD), Kinder Morgan Energy Partners (NYSE:KMP), Plains All American Pipeline Partners (NYSE:PAA), Energy Transfer Partners (NYSE:ETP) and TEPPCO (NYSE:TPP ).
