Mr. Edwards: We focus our attention on the energy master limited partnerships, specifically, mostly those dealing with infrastructure.
TWST: In general terms, what's going on in that space so far this year?
Mr. Edwards: So far this year, it's actually been extremely positive. The total return in the sector is over 60%, so it's been a very strong year.
TWST: What's driving that?
Mr. Edwards: The main driver has been falling cost of capital and the capital markets moving from a dysfunctional mode to relatively normal functioning. I mean we still have a little ways to go in that regard, but that's been the primary driver.
