They have unique tax advantages that resulted in significant advantages over other income equities. In a nutshell, MLPs aren’t taxed at the corporate level. MLPs pass profits directly to unitholders in the form of periodic distributions.
Investors who had gravitated to MLPs for predictable income streams suddenly found that there was more risk in the space than they had come to expect. As a result, MLPs suffered a steep drop in 2015.
