Consolidation in pipelines coming? No, not likely. There are ENB and Transcanada which dominate this space, plus regional players like Pembina. There was a flurry of M&A three years ago, but he doesn't see that appetite now. ENB has been shaking off non-core assets to reduce debt and strengthen their balance sheet. ENB is recession-resilient. Today, they finally got approval to reopen their line in Michigan. Expect modest organic growth in their gas business. Their renewables are small, but growth and are important for the future--pay attention to this. Finally, the biggest catalyst is the line 3 replacement. Pays a 7.8% yield.

It's small, illiquid, not profitable with a terrible chart.

So, if there's a massive recovery (via a vaccine), money will flow from REITS like this as well as tech. But long-term, this is a proven value creator.
