FYI: Part 1 of this seriesEnergy MLPs Are Alternative Investments - Part 2 discussed the characteristics of energy master limited partnerships (MLPs) and presented data showing that the historical record of the Alerian MLP (TR) Index has produced high returns and volatility over its 19-year existence ending December 31, 2014. The focus of Part 2 is to demonstrate that the relatively low correlation of the Alerian MLP Index to other asset strategies makes energy MLPs good candidates to include in a portfolio to improve the portfolio’s overall efficiency.
