** TD Cowen says market continues to reward North American midstream growth, evidenced by expanding core profit multiples alongside increasing capex budgets
** Adds that investors are differentiating between optimism on natgas, demand-pull growth and caution on supply-push growth
** TD Cowen adds that Canadian midstream valuations are above 10-year average on near-term catalysts, long-term growth, and attractive yields; U.S. natgas levered names are also above average
** "Limited market access can have meaningfully negatively consequences for Canadian producers, and we believe that Canadian midstream is much better positioned with supply push leverage as a consequence," - brokerage
** For Q3 earnings, brokerage is constructive on TC Energy TRP.TO, Cheniere Energy LNG.N and bearish on Enterprise Products Partners EPD.N
