(closed on 05/05/08)
I added to FTO at $25.00. The refiners are getting hammered by high oil prices, but FTO's underlying valuation (PEG of .27) is very attractive. FTO has a 29.5% 5-year growth rate, $297m in cash vs. $150m debt, and is also a GS "Conviction Buy" with a $52 12-month target price. I don't expect $52, but I do think mid-30's is within the realm of possibility this year.

Six Refiners to Pump Up Your Portfolio
FTO
-53.25%

To beat the market investors need to find opportunities where they have a good chance to achieve above average returns. In recent years, refiners have benefited from the expanding crack spread that exists during the spring and summer months. As a result, they have experienced a seasonal rise in the price of their stock as demand for gasoline increases during the spring and summer months.
