AMZA: After Sell-Off, This Oil & Gas MLP ETF Now Yields 8.5%
AMZA's 8.5% yield, supported by underlying long-term take-or-pay midstream oil & gas transportation agreements, makes it an attractive buy after a 13% drop post-Trump tariff announcement. The ETF's top-10 holdings dominate the portfolio, with LP's like MPLX Energy Transfer contributing to its concentrated high-yield structure. AMZA is structured as a dividend-paying C-corp. That avoids the complexities of MLP K-1 forms, making it more appealing for some income-oriented energy investors.

AMZA: Quiet Market Leadership Continues, Stick With It In 2025
Stocks have surged since mid-August 2024, with the S&P 500 up over 12%, driven by Financials, Information Technology, and Consumer Discretionary sectors.

3 Energy ETFs That Could Power Big Gains This Year
As crude oil enters 2025 in an elevated range due to increasing global energy demands and many new investments in offshore production, energy stocks could be due to rise. Energy firms had a lackluster year in 2024, but a renewed focus by the new administration on incentivizing an increase in energy production by loosening regulations over drilling on federal lands could help boost the sector.

AMZA: Long-Term Value Still Questionable
InfraCap MLP ETF's long-term performance is poor, with a -81% share price drop since inception and a -19% total return despite dividend reinvestment. The fund's distribution history is concerning, with payouts dropping from $20.30 per share in 2015 to $3.32 currently, a 95% decline after inflation. MLP funds generally perform poorly long term due to cyclical industry challenges and high distribution rates, leaving little room for growth during downturns.
