Oil Refining Industry Stocks($DK, $VLO, $MPC...) See 4.37% Monthly Gain

The Oil Refining sector encompasses companies that transform crude oil into various petroleum products such as gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel. These entities then distribute the refined products to the final consumers. Termed as 'downstream operations' in the oil business, these companies also undertake the marketing and distribution of crude oil and natural gas products. Notably, when oil prices dip, these downstream businesses might experience lesser impact or even gain an advantage due to the reduced crude oil purchase costs. Prominent U.S. entities in this sector include Phillips 66, Marathon Petroleum Corporation, and Valero Energy Corp.
