| 2025 Q3 | Oct 19, 2025 | Miller Howard Investments MLP Strategy | - | - | AM, ENB, EPD, ET, GEL, HESM, MPLX, PAA, SUN, WES, WMB | Data centers, dividends, energy, infrastructure, Midstream, Natural Gas | Natural gas demand from data centers is driving significant growth, with hyperscalers increasing capex and the majority of projects powered by natural gas.

| 2025 Q4 | Jan 24, 2026 | Miller Howard Investments MLP Strategy | 1.9% | 6.0% | AM, EPD, ET, GEL, LNG, PAA, SUN, WES, WMB | Data centers, dividends, energy, LNG, Midstream, MLPs, Natural Gas, Pipelines | The midstream energy industry is healthy with declining leverage, stronger balance sheets, and shareholders being rewarded through higher dividends and share buybacks. New tailwinds have developed including natural gas exports, data centers, and electrification trends driving demand growth. Data centers represent a significant tailwind for natural gas demand, with the US expected to see an additional 20-25 Bcf/d of incremental natural gas demand through 2030. However, this tailwind will not fully impact midstream cash flows until 2027. Distribution increases were prominent with 6 of 16 holdings announcing dividend increases this quarter, averaging 7.5% year-over-year growth. Rising dividends are expected as midstream cash flows increase from growing demand. Natural gas exports represent a key growth driver for the midstream sector. However, concerns about LNG supply/demand fundamentals weighed on some stocks, and potential Russian gas returning to Europe could negatively impact US natural gas exports. | View | |
