Analyst

crack spreads will improve with crude oil price dropping this takes a few weeks to take hold as VLO  consumes expensive inventory and replaces it with  cheaper crude oil.  VLO also uses  heavy crude which is 20 bucks cheaper than the lightr crude price listed on CNBc....all of a sudden you will see it take off here by mid august
