Marathon Petroleum

Morgan Stanley raised its price target on Marathon Petroleum from $265 to $453 and kept an Overweight rating, citing continued tight global refining capacity and elevated crack spreads that support further upside. Marathon has benefited from strong Q2 profits, high refinery utilization and income from its stake in MPLX, while returning $2.8 billion to shareholders in Q2 and planning sizeable buybacks. Analysts warn the stock is vulnerable to a decline in refining margins, high operating leverage and outage risk from prolonged near‑capacity runs. » Mais em finance.yahoo.com

Additional investments in renewable fuels and extensive share buybacks are intended to secure earning power and support the company’s transition strategy in the energy sector. » Mais em finanzen.net
