MDST: A Good Midstream Fund If Oil Prices Start Declining
The Westwood Salient Enhanced Midstream Income ETF offers a 9.27% yield via a covered call strategy on midstream energy equities. MDST sacrifices capital gains upside for higher distributable income, outperforming peers in flat or declining midstream markets but lagging during strong rallies. Recent portfolio changes prioritize higher yield (Pembina Pipeline) over growth potential (Targa Resources), aligning with the fund's income focus.

MDST: High Yield, Limited Alpha -- Why It's A Decent Hold, Not A Buy
Westwood Salient Enhanced Midstream Income ETF (MDST) offers a ~9% yield via aggressive covered call writing on a midstream equity portfolio. MDST's structure caps upside, underperforms in rallies, and fails to deliver significant alpha in flat markets versus alternatives like ENFR. The ETF's income is broadly sustainable, but NAV erosion occurs even in consolidating markets, making it a Strong Hold rather than a Buy.
