Energy Transfer LP (ET-N) is widely regarded as a core holding in the midstream sector, with many experts highlighting its attractive dividend yield, which is reported at around 6-8% or even higher in some reviews. The stock is praised for its stability and potential for long-term growth, with one expert noting that shares have nearly tripled over the last five years. Moreover, despite current challenges, including external factors impacting ethane exports, the overall sentiment remains positive, with upgrades suggesting confidence in its future performance. The company is seen as a significant player in the natural gas industry, and its position within a diversified fund focused on infrastructure further endorses its value proposition for investors seeking exposure to the energy sector.

1550+ opinions with 4.81 rating (one of the best performing expert).

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We again reiterate ET, an energy services company operating a network of natural gas pipelines and storage facilities in the US, as a TOP PICK. The company plans to spend about $2 billion in organic growth projects, including converting its Lake Charles, LA facility into a LNG export facility. Distributions increased 70% over the year, yet the company still manages a payout ratio under 75% of cash flow. Cash reserves continue to grow, while the company aggressively retires debt and buys back shares. It presently trades at 1.2x book value and at only 10x earnings. Its dividend yield is high, backed by payout ratio under 75% of cash flow. We recommend keeping the trailing stop set at $9.50, looking to achieve $16.00 -- upside potential over 23%. Yield 7.3% (Analysts’ price target is $15.88)
BUY
A cheap stock in this sector. Good CEO.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate this energy services company, which operates a network of natural gas pipelines and storage facilities in the US, as a TOP PICK. They will benefit from rising US energy production levels. The company plans to spend about $2 billion on new growth projects this year alone. It presently trades at 1.2x book value and at only 10x earnings - compared to peers at 35x. Its dividend yield is high, backed by payout ratio of 55% of cash flow. Cash reserves are growing and the company is aggressively retiring debt. We recommend trailing up the stop loss (from $7.50) to $9.50, looking to achieve $16.00 -- upside potential over 30%. Yield 7.7% (Analysts’ price target is $15.73)

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly This energy services company operates a network of natural gas pipelines and storage facilities in the US. They are less impacted by downward moves in energy prices and benefit from rising production levels. It presently trades at book value and at only 10x earnings. Its dividend yield is high, backed by payout ratio under 80% of cash flow. Cash reserves are growing and the company continues to buy back shares. We recommend setting a stop loss at $7.50, looking to achieve $15.50 -- upside potential over 45%. Yield 7.67% (Analysts’ price target is $15.47)
BUY
Worth owning because this entire energy group is going up big.
BUY
He see more upside in energy, including natural gas. They have pipelines everywhere.
BUY
Energy is one of the hottest sectors. He expects ET to hit new 52-week highs. In options, they're buying April 11.50 calls, just 20 cents out of the money. ET runs 12,000 miles of natural gas pipelines and storage facilities. It pays a 6.5% dividend. All this got to add to his position today.

TOP PICK
Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly ET is an operator of over 20,000 miles of natural gas pipelines in the US and is also involved in the processing and storage of natural gas. As such, it is less exposed to the volatility of underlying natural gas prices as it derives its value from the margin it collects from customers. It trades at 7x earnings compared to peers at 21x and is trading right near book value -- good value here. It pays a great dividend, backed by a payout ratio near 50% of cash flow. We would buy this with a stop loss at $8.00, looking to achieve $13.00 -- upside potential over 36%. Yield 6.41% (Analysts’ price target is $13.06)
DON'T BUY
Has a poor balance sheet, but the sector is rising. ET-N is the weakest in this space given that balance sheet.
DON'T BUY

It pays a high yield, but it's a risky business. Yes, they have contracted revenues, but also some commodity risk. Don't just look at the yield. (ENB pays a higher yield and has better governance and ethical standards than ET). He prefers the Canadian midstreams over the Americans.

DON'T BUY
Carries too much debt, and pipelines are a terrible business. Investors are losing their shirts.
