Could Buying Energy Transfer Stock Today Set You Up for Life?
Key Points Energy Transfer has extensive natural gas, natural gas liquids (NGLs), and crude oil operations. The limited partnership's juicy distributions should continue to grow over time. Energy Transfer also has tremendous growth opportunities supplying natural gas for AI-focused data centers. 10 stocks we like better than Energy Transfer › Investing in hot technologies can be done in different ways. For example, when personal computers were first catching on, some investors bought software stocks rather than the stocks of PC makers. In the early days of the internet boom, some invested in networking stocks instead of highly volatile dot-com start-ups. A similar opportunity is available today with artificial intelligence (AI). You could bet on which AI stock you hope will be the biggest winner. However, some investors understand that AI models require massive amounts of power. And they know that the largest source of generating electricity in the U.S. is natural gas. The stocks of companies that transport and process natural gas should, therefore, be big winners as demand for AI surges. Enter Energy Transfer LP (NYSE: ET), one of the best natural gas stocks on the market. Could buying Energy Transfer stock today set you up for life? About Energy Transfer The first thing you should know about Energy Transfer is that it's a limited partnership (LP). One key benefit of investing in an LP is that it doesn't pay corporate income taxes. This can help investors avoid double taxation, where the company pays taxes on its profits and then pays dividends to unitholders who have to pay taxes on the dividends. If you want to profit from increased natural gas demand driven by AI, Energy Transfer is one of the top midstream companies in North America. Its natural gas pipelines generate roughly 19% of its total adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). Operations related to natural gas liquids (NGLs) and refined products contribute 20% of adjusted EBITDA. Midstream assets, including natural gas gathering pipelines, kick in another 20%. Energy Transfer's pipelines transport around 32.4 million British thermal units (BTUs) of natural gas each day. The LP fractionates (separating NGLs into their components) in the ballpark of 1.15 million barrels per day of NGLs. And its facilities can store roughly 236 billion cubic feet of natural gas. However, Energy Transfer's business isn't limited to natural gas and NGLs. The company also transports around 7 million barrels per day of crude oil. Its Sunoco subsidiary primarily focuses on energy infrastructure and the distribution of motor fuels. Its USAC subsidiary provides compression services used in processing and transporting crude oil, in addition to natural gas. A pipeline to attractive total returns Energy Transfer has delivered a cumulative total return of around 300% over the last five years. The LP's distributions accounted for nearly half of that amount. Distributions should continue to play an important role in total returns for a long time to come. Energy Transfer's distribution yield (the LP version of dividend yield) currently stands at 7.59%. The company targets annual distribution growth of between 3% and 5%. Investors will likely enjoy more than just juicy distributions, though. Energy Transfer's unit price should also appreciate nicely as its adjusted EBITDA rises. Between 2020 and 2024, the midstream leader's adjusted EBITDA increased by a compound annual growth rate of 10%. Is that level of growth sustainable? Probably so. Energy Transfer has a significant project backlog that it believes will support long-term growth. In its second-quarter update, the company reported requests to connect to around 200 data centers in 15 states. It also had requests to connect to more than 60 power plants in 14 states. Perhaps the biggest indicator of how AI could boost Energy Transfer's fortunes over the long run is its agreement with CloudBurst to provide natural gas to data centers in central Texas. With this deal, Energy Transfer's pipelines will provide up to 450,000 million BTUs per day of natural gas to CloudBurst's AI-focused data center campus. Setting you up for life? With all this in mind, can investing in Energy Transfer set you up for life? Maybe. The answer to the question hinges largely on how much money is required to achieve the goal, which will vary from one person to the next. It also depends on how much money you can invest and what your investment time frame is. Whether or not buying Energy Transfer stock sets you up for life, it could be a profitable long-term investment. Income investors should especially find this LP attractive because of its ultrahigh distribution yield. Should you invest $1,000 in Energy Transfer right now?

Prediction: 1 Artificial Intelligence (AI) Stock That Could Join the Trillion-Dollar Club
Key Points AMD stock has to double less than twice to reach $1 trillion. Its growing success with AI accelerators could make it a stronger competitor in that market. 10 stocks we like better than Advanced Micro Devices › Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD) has evolved into a semiconductor powerhouse in recent years. Under the leadership of Lisa Su, it overtook longtime rival Intel in the PC market. Although Nvidia 's success with the artificial intelligence (AI) accelerator market initially took AMD by surprise, AMD's efforts to catch up have made it an increasingly important company in that market. Such innovations have also made AMD a prime candidate to join the 10 companies that now have a market cap above $1 trillion. Here's how it can reach that milestone, and why the path might be easier to achieve than many investors might assume. Where AMD stands now At first glance, AMD might appear far away from that milestone since its $280 billion market cap means it is only 28% of the way toward that goal. However, that is not as far away from $1 trillion as it might appear. At the current market cap, it has to double in value less than two times to reach that point. Moreover, a simple increase in popularity could get AMD to that point. Although its 99 price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio might make it appear pricey, it currently sells at a forward P/E ratio of 44. Thus, if it achieves some of the popularity that has boosted Palantir, a stock that sells at 623 times its earnings, multiple expansion alone could take it there. Reaching $1 trillion through business growth More importantly, AMD is in a strong position to reach a $1 trillion market cap even if such hype does not materialize. The company's data center segment, which designs AI accelerators, generated just over $6.9 billion in revenue in the first half of 2025, around 46% of AMD's total. In comparison, Nvidia's data center segment made up 89% of the company's revenue in its most recent quarter. Admittedly, AMD is significantly behind Nvidia in the AI accelerator market, and while AMD's MI350 chip has generated some interest due to its lower cost, it is hardly a threat to Nvidia's dominance. However, AMD plans to release the MI400 next year. With its integration with AMD's upcoming Helios rack-scale solution, some analysts believe it can become a competitive threat to Nvidia's upcoming Vera Rubin platform. Nvidia's CUDA software, which has previously cemented its dominance, also faces increased competitive threats. Such conditions could mean AMD is on the way to becoming a full-fledged competitor in the AI market. Additionally, Grand View Research forecasts a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29% through 2030, taking the market's size to an estimated $323 billion. If that prediction comes to pass, AMD will almost certainly benefit from that industry growth. Even if data center revenue becomes AMD's dominant revenue source, investors should not forget about the client, embedded, and gaming segments. Fortune Business Insights forecasts a CAGR of 15% for the semiconductor industry through 2032. That seems to affirm Grand View's findings, and the market rising above $2 trillion presents AMD with a massive tailwind. Finally, as conditions stand now, Nvidia has reached a market cap of just under $4.5 trillion, making AMD approximately 6% of its size. Hence, even if AMD grew to slightly less than one-fourth of Nvidia's size, its market cap would presumably reach $1 trillion or higher. AMD at $1 trillion (and beyond) Ultimately, AMD is on track to benefit from numerous catalysts that will likely take its market cap to $1 trillion and beyond. The company is less than two doubles away from reaching $1 trillion, meaning hype alone could take it to that milestone. Still, the growth of the semiconductor industry in general puts it on track to spark massive growth. Additionally, even though all four of AMD's segments will probably contribute to the company's growth, the path to $1 trillion will most likely hinge on the AI accelerator market, particularly with the upcoming release of the MI400. Even if it falls somewhat short of expectations, investors should remember that AMD can reach $1 trillion even if it grows to less than one-fourth of Nvidia's size. Such conditions make reaching a $1 trillion market cap easier than most investors are likely assuming. Should you invest $1,000 in Advanced Micro Devices right now?

Ontario Shipyards partners with province and Italy's largest builder to ready bid for navy corvettes
The Ontario government is boosting efforts to turn the province into an unlikely shipbuilding centre in the hope that its underutilized shipyards can land a multibillion-dollar contract for new Canadian navy corvettes. On Monday, Premier Doug Ford and Vic Fedeli, the Minister of Economic Development, met with senior executives of Algoma Steel ASTL-T of Sault Ste. Marie., Ont., Canada's second-biggest steelmaker. 'We let them know that if they try to pivot into supplying the defence industry and other areas, we would be there to help them,' Mr. Fedeli told The Globe and Mail. Algoma, the country's only publicly listed steel producer, could make steel plate for ships and other heavy military equipment if Ontario Shipyards of Hamilton, the largest ship repair and construction company on the Great Lakes, were to win the corvette contract. Algoma is already listed as a potential supplier to Team Vigilance, the Canadian and international consortium assembled two years ago to bid for the next generation of Canadian naval ships, specifically corvettes. It includes Italy's Fincantieri FNCNF, the largest shipbuilder in Europe and the fourth-largest in the world. Opinion: The USMCA agreement may be circling the drain. Time to fill the trade sink elsewhere Ontario pivots to European defence market with car industry under threat Corvettes are relatively small offshore patrol vessels, or OPVs, that would replace the dozen Kingston Class ships that were built for the Royal Canadian Navy in the mid-1990s and are reaching the end of their careers. The navy announced in July that it will begin to pull eight of the ships out of service in the fall. Those ships are 55 metres long, carry a crew of about 50 and are used for coastal and fisheries patrol, training, minesweeping, search and rescue, law enforcement and drug interdiction. The new Vigilance ships, if built, would be somewhat larger, perhaps 100 metres long, to give them more range and capabilities, said Ted Kirkpatrick, Ontario Shipyards' director of business development and government relations. The federal government has yet to issue a tender for the new corvettes – the navy is reportedly still setting the parameters of the project – and neither Mr. Fedeli nor Mr. Kirkpatrick know the timeline or the expected budget, though the contract could be worth several billion dollars. 'We feel hopeful that this project will move forward fairly quickly,' Mr. Kirkpatrick said, noting that Prime Minister Mark Carney has made rearmament an industrial priority to meet Canada's domestic defence needs and NATO commitments. In an effort to kick-start an ambitious shipbuilding program in Ontario, which has not built a warship since the Second World War, the provincial government last month launched a financial program worth $215-million. The amount is designed to support shipbuilding capacity under the National Shipbuilding Strategy program. Mr. Fedeli said the incentives would be composed of loans and grants and tailored to each project. 'We want Ontario to get back into the shipbuilding business,' he said. Several other funds, including the new Ontario Together Trade Fund, could offer incentives to steel companies and other manufacturers to help them serve Canadian customers. Mr. Kirkpatrick said Ontario Shipyards 'hopes and expects to be a large beneficiary of the incentives programs.' Ontario Shipyards (formerly Heddle Shipyards) was founded in 1987 and has three sites – in Hamilton, Port Weller and Thunder Bay. The company has about 250 employees, and its main business today is repairing coast guard vessels, not building new ships. The company joined Team Vigilance to launch an unsolicited proposal to build a new corvette fleet. In addition to Fincantieri, the group includes Vard, which is Fincantieri's design arm; Thales THLEF, the French defence company that specializes in electronics; and SH Defence of Denmark, a maker of modular loading systems. Ontario Shipyards expects competition for the contract from the other industry players in Canada, primarily Irving Shipbuilding of Nova Scotia, which has a contract worth $8-billion to build the first three River-class destroyers for the navy; Davie Shipbuilding of Quebec, which is making icebreakers for the coast guard; and Seaspan Shipyards of British Columbia, which is building large non-combat ships for the navy and the coast guard. Mr. Kirkpatrick said the three rival shipbuilders have ample work at the moment, leaving only Ontario Shipyards with enough spare capacity to take on a big, new naval contract. 'We have the largest amount of underutilized capacity in Canada,' he said. 'If there is anyone who can put a boat in the water and paint it grey, it's us.' He said the presence of Fincantieri and subsidiary Vard are key advantages for Team Vigilance. Vard would design the vessels, and Fincantieri would handle shipyard layout, procurement and project management. Mr. Kirkpatrick said a team from Fincantieri visited Ontario Shipyards last year to assess the company's capabilities and determine what equipment and training it would need to launch a competitive bid for Canadian navy warships. Fincantieri, based in Trieste, in Italy's northeast, is controlled by the Italian government and is listed on the Milan exchange. The company has built some of world's largest ships for Cunard, Carnival, Princess and other cruise companies. It also builds combat ships, including aircraft carriers and submarines, for the Italian, U.S. and other governments. In Wisconsin, it makes the U.S. Navy's Constellation-class frigates, which are based on the Italian Navy's multipurpose frigates, known as FREMM.
