"Assessing Energy Transfer's Performance and Ultra-High Dividend Yield"

Energy Transfer, a midstream company, has a diversified fee-based business model and a strong backlog of growth projects, positioning it to continue growing its distribution over the next several years. With its distribution well covered by cash flow and a largely fee-based business model, the company looks poised for growth. Despite trading at a discount to its peers due to past issues, Energy Transfer's improved balance sheet, growth prospects, and distribution restoration should help win back investor trust over time.
