5 MLPs With Yields You Can Actually Rely On

It’s no secret that master limited partnerships are a great way to bolster your investment income. Designed as pass-through entities, MLPs send much of their cash flows back to investors in the form of large tax deferred distributions (similar to dividends). These distributions often range in the mid-single digits, though some can push into double digits. The problem is since most MLPs are high-yielding by design, we get tempted by those large numbers and forget how important a reliable distribution is.

For retail investors looking for solid MLPs, you’ll want to stick to partnerships that have high coverage ratios indicating that the yield will stick around and even potentially grow over time. To help you out, we’ll look at five solid MLPs that have plenty of cover: Marathon Petroleum (MPC), EQT Midstream Partners (EQM), Cone Midstream Partners (CNNX), Calumet Specialty Products Partners LP (CLMT) and Global Partners LP (GLP).
