Alon USA Energy, Inc. (ALJ)

CAPS Rating:
****

The Company and its subsidiaries engage in the business of refining and marketing of petroleum products, in the South Central, Southwestern and Western regions of the United States.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Again with another oil refiner. I'm either really smart and the market is being really dumb, or I'm slicing up the tendons in my hands catching these falling knives.

February 22, 2008. ALJ's refinery blast was one of the worst i remember in a long time. Much smaller refinery incidents have shut plants down for 2 months or more. ALJ is optimistic in saying it will have partial production up in 2 months.

Has been beaten up, but will bounce back after the oil speculation dies down.

I expect outlook to improve for independent refineries with increased summer demand and leveling off of crude prices. I'll reevaluate at end of summer.

A refinery should benefit when oil price peaks. The upturn of the sector yesterday could signal the beginning.
