DALLAS, Dec. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Alerian
announced today that Enbridge Energy Partners (NYSE: EEP) is
expected to be removed from the Alerian Midstream Energy Index
(AMNA), Alerian US Midstream Energy Index (AMUS), Alerian MLP Index
(AMZ), Alerian MLP Equal Weight Index (AMZE), and Alerian MLP
Infrastructure Index (AMZI) in a special rebalancing.
Special rebalancings are triggered by corporate actions such as
mergers, bankruptcies, and liquidations. Pending shareholder
approval, EEP will cease to trade due to its merger with Enbridge
Inc (TSX: ENB). If approved, the rebalancing will take place after
market close on Wednesday, December
19.
Each index will be rebalanced in accordance with its existing
methodology. Constituent additions to and deletions from an index
do not reflect an opinion by Alerian on the investment merits of
the respective securities.
