Much to investors’ surprise, U.S. equity markets have smashed through resistance en route to new all-time highs. Recent developments just go to prove that you don’t want to buck the trend, and you don’t want to fight the Fed.

In a similar vein, Kinder Morgan has recently done a full review of its portfolio and is currently in the process of purging weaker natural gas pipelines and projects to focus on those that will provide higher return on invested capital for the company’s shareholders. It’s a shift that could pay big dividends down the road.
