Global X MLP & Energy Price, Forecast, Insider, Ratings, Fundamentals & Signals

On Wednesday, Global X expanded its lineup of ETFs with the launch on the NYSE of two new funds. Both the MLP & Energy Infrastructure Covered Call ETF (MLPD) and the S&P 500 Quality Dividend Covered Call ETF (QDCC) use covered call strategies.

MLPX and XLE are two of the largest energy ETFs in the market. XLE offers diversified exposure to energy companies, while MLXP focuses on midstream. Both funds have above-average yields and cheap valuations, but differ in several key ways.

MLPX is an ETF that focuses on midstream energy infrastructure, offering potential yield and less sensitivity to volatile energy prices. The fund has 25 holdings, including key players in the midstream energy sector such as ONEOK, Cheniere Energy, and Enbridge. MLPX is heavily weighted towards the energy infrastructure sector, making it a potentially safer option for investors looking for exposure to the energy sector.

Midstream ETFs have had a strong showing in 2023, with the segment poised to outperform the broader energy sector for the year. MLPs/midstream have been strengthened by their defensive qualities, M&A activity, and positive dividend growth this year.

Global X MLP & Energy Infrastructure ETF offers diversified exposure to midstream corporations and MLPs. The MLPX ETF has a good, growing 5.2% dividend yield, comparatively safe midstream holdings, and a cheap price and valuation. An overview of the fund follows.
