Kinder Morgan increases distribution

Kinder Morgan (KMP) increased their distribution after the close. The annualized rate was increased to $4.20 from $4.08 in the prior quarter.

They are the largest MLP & have increased distributions 35 times in their 12 year history. The earnings statement is excellent, however they say they expect the $4.20 rate will be paid this year (i.e. no more increases until next year at the earliest). The release, linked below, gives an excellent review plus the outlook for 2009.
