I originally bought DPM 2/28/2013 at $40.59/share since they were a profitable NG gathering unit servicing the East. Their $EBITA/share was 12x at the time and now is at 15x. I also like the ng gathering business OKS has (more at the source in North Dakota) and at the current price of $49.96/share is now selling at 10.8x $EBITA. The yield for both is around 5.7% so to me OKS looks like the better bargain.

PVR at $27.00/share is selling at 9.5x its $EBITA/share but they have exposure to coal. The company recently has acquired several NG distribution pipelines so I will continue to hold my shares but cut my position by 50%.

So I decided to book 50% of my gain in DPM (25% gain in 4 months!) and on any further run higher will close out that position and try to find a less expensive NG gather.
