Valero Energy Corporation (VLO) has witnessed significant market activity in the recent past. Despite a share price pullback, investment firms continue to show marked interest. While the Texas Permanent School Fund Corp. and Watts Gwilliam & Co. LLC sold their VLO shares, groups like Thrivent Financial for Lutherans, Shorepoint Capital Partners LLC, Caldwell Trust Co., Semper Augustus Investments Group LLC, Axa S.A., and California Public Employees Retirement System among others, boosted their VLO holdings. VLO ascended as the market fell, prompting many to reappraise their valuation. Barclays reaffirmed their buy rating while Bank of America downgraded the stock due to its valuation. Performance-wise, VLO led the S&P 500 Energy stocks in 2025 and continually outpaced market gains. VLO's latest earnings results surpassed estimates courtesy of stronger margins, with strategic initiatives enhancing their record profits. The recent appointment of a new CFO and Wall Street analysts upgrading the stock add another dimension to their performance. Despite bearish outlooks, VLO showcased a multi-year price rally. With 87% of VLO ownership in institutional hands, significant returns have bolstered investors' confidence.
