VLO. Decided I will reenter now for few shares.

Price:tangible bv ~= .8. That number's been lower, also higher, in past years. Although I can't be sure, it seems to me VLO is gaining importance in its position as the largest independent US refiner.

Besides the usual negative of oil refining margins frequently/usually getting squeezed and making the sector mostly unattractive, VLO has several ethanol refineries, and I'm not a fan of corn-to-oil operations.
