Denis Shevchuk/iStock via Getty Images ET stock: Gas brightens the future I last analyzed Energy Transfer LP stock ( ET ) on April 16 with an article titled "Energy Transfer: Energy Price Fluctuations Are Noisy, Dividend Is The Signal". As stated in the title, the article focused on the commodity price changes due to the geopolitics in the Mideast as the Iran war broke out and rated the stock as a hold. Since then, a few new catalysts have evolved surrounding this midstream stock and motivated this follow-up. In the remainder of this article, I will concentrate on the top 2 catalysts on my list: its FQ1 2026 earnings report (ER) and also the rating change from Wall Street analysts. As a background, the companies released its FQ1 ER on May 5, 2026. And shortly afterwards, Wall Street analysts raised their rating to Strong Buy from their earlier Buy rating. The data in the image below provides more details. As seen, the average analyst rating currently sits at an impressive 4.57. Also, in the past 1 year, the sentiment on the street has changed a few times but is bullish overall. For the most part of 1H 2026, the street has been rating the stock a buy. Thus, I feel it's logical to assume that the recent rating upgrade was because Wall Street liked the picture they saw in the ER. Looking further, it seemed to me that a key factor behind the street's upgrade was the potential of ET's gas business. As an example, the rationale for Jeffries rating upgrade starts with stronger growth outlook for gas. As a contrarian investor, I normally take prevailing ratings with a big grain of salt. But in this case, after looking through the ER in detail, I find myself in agreement with Wall Street for reasons detailed next.

Government rejects offshore rubbish being shipped to Fiji and burned after opposition from traditional landowners and tourism operators The Fijian government has rejected a plan by an Australian billionaire to burn rubbish for energy in Fiji after backlash from traditional landowners and tourism operators. The plan to ship non-recyclable rubbish from across the region to Fiji, popular with tourists for its pristine beaches, and build an incinerator to consume 900,000 tonnes of waste a year had been labelled “waste colonialism” by villagers.
