Many thought this would be inflationary, but QE turned out to be a vital tool to compensate for a near-paralyzed financial system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>QE should have been a one-off measure, reversed via Quantitative Tightening (QT). But somehow the time has never been quite right for the Fed to exit the long term bond market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It took the Fed until 2017 to start to unwind the original QE, and that was soon derailed by the pandemic, which took their balance sheet to $9TN by April 2022. It was then allowed to decline until last week when Chair Jay Powell announced an end to QT. He said, \u201cAt a certain point, you\u2019ll want\u2009.\u2009.\u2009.\u2009reserves to start gradually growing to keep up with the size of the banking system and the size of the economy,\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Fed\u2019s current holdings are six times bigger than in 2008 while the economy is twice as big.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A permanent holding in excess of what\u2019s needed for monetary policy is simply debt monetization. On this basis, the Fed has monetized at least $4TN of our $36TN outstanding and plans to do more. It is a monetary narcotic, a habit we can\u2019t kick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next financial crisis will take it higher still. All the political pressure is aimed at keeping rates low and risking price stability. 3% inflation remains more likely than 2%. Midstream energy infrastructure with its PPI-linked contracts offers some protection in our opinion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Midstream energy has been a passive bystander to the AI-fueled excitement of the S&amp;P500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If they were private companies not subject to constant revaluation, as investors we\u2019d feel the macro outlook remains positive and operating performance has been good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"579\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/Blog-Image-November-2-2025-2-103.jpg\" alt=\"selected midstream stocks since the end of 2023\" class=\"wp-image-234043 lazyload\" title=\"Blog Image November 2 2025 2\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/Blog-Image-November-2-2025-2-103.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/Blog-Image-November-2-2025-2-103-700x393.jpg 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/Blog-Image-November-2-2025-2-103-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/Blog-Image-November-2-2025-2-103-768x432.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1030px; aspect-ratio: 1030\/579;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/b3547620.smushcdn.com\/3547620\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Blog-Image-November-2-2025-2-1030x579.jpg?lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But we\u2019re burdened with a public opinion of that view on a continuous basis, and this year\u2019s mood does not match last year\u2019s. Oil-linked names such as Oneok (OKE) have sagged with oil prices, even though domestic crude oil production reached a record&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eia.gov\/dnav\/pet\/hist\/leafhandler.ashx?n=pet&amp;s=mcrfpus2&amp;f=m\">13.8 million barrels per day<\/a>&nbsp;in August \u2013 we\u2019ll have more recent data once the Federal government re-opens. Exxon and Chevron both increased output in 3Q25.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OKE\u2019s 2025\/2026 YTD performance is +48%\/-31% respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Targa Resources has built a vertically integrated business for hydrocarbons that allows multiple opportunities to touch a molecule. Its 2025\/26 performance is +111%\/-12%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Energy Transfer (ET), perennially cheap in part because it\u2019s an MLP but well positioned to profit from the build out of data centers in Texas, is +53%\/-10%.<a href=\"https:\/\/b3547620.smushcdn.com\/3547620\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Blog-Image-November-2-2025-3-1030x579.jpg?lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cheniere Energy (LNG), our leading exporter of natural gas, continues to expand its capacity under budget and ahead of schedule. Many analysts are warning that global LNG export capacity will flood the market, depressing prices and volumes. Moreover, Cheniere operates with 95% of its capacity pre-sold through 2035, giving it unparalleled cash flow visibility. In 3Q they repurchased $1BN of stock. Its performance is +28%\/-1%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NextDecade (NEXT) reached final investment decision on Trains 4 and 5 with much better economics than on the first three and has plans for further expansion. Its story improved. Its performance is +54%\/-25%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe these stocks and others outran their positive fundamentals last year. Their outlook and operating performance have only improved. Or perhaps it\u2019s a growth year, and AI exposure is where investors want to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In any event, long term investors in the sector, which very much includes your blogger, are enjoying 5% yields with growth, strong balance sheets and inflation-linked pricing power on pipeline fees. Our president is a fan of energy exports and easy money. Pipelines offer the opportunity to compensate for fiscal profligacy. It\u2019s the place to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally Posted November 2, 2025 &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/sl-advisors.com\/debt-monetization-and-pipelines\">Debt Monetization And
