Why This $10 Million Antero Midstream Position Isn’t Likely Just a Plain-Vanilla Yield Play

Ripple Effect Asset Management disclosed a $9.91 million position in Antero Midstream Corporation, acquiring 510,000 shares alongside put and call options.

1 Stock I'd Buy Before EQT In 2026

While EQT Corp is a strong natural gas producer positioned to benefit from growing demand, analyst Matt DiLallo recommends buying Kinder Morgan first in 2026. Kinder Morgan's midstream pipeline business offers more predictable cash flow with 69% from take-or-pay contracts and lower commodity price exposure, compared to EQT's upstream production which faces volatile gas pricing. Both companies stand to benefit from AI data center demand and LNG exports, but Kinder Morgan's stable earnings support a higher 4.3% dividend yield with nine consecutive annual increases expected.
