Better Dividend Stock: Western Midstream vs. Energy Transfer
Energy Transfer (NYSE: ET) and Western Midstream Partners (NYSE: WES) are among the largest master limited partnerships (MLPs). These midstream companies generate stable cash flow, much of which they pay out to investors. Energy Transfer's distribution yields 7.5%, and Western Midstream's is over 9%.
Most investors will likely prefer to own only one of these MLPs, especially due to the potential tax complications associated with the annual Schedule K-1 federal tax forms they send to investors. Here's a look at which MLP is the better buy for those seeking sustainable, growing dividend income.
