    People are fighting over homes the day they hit the market down here and some are paying WAAAY over asking price and actual appraisal values, even though they are advised that is not a wise business move.. Its absolutely insane. When the correction happens, and it will, many will be upside down... THEY DO NOT CARE..
    That’s buy time lol. Too bad ranch values won’t crash with them haha

      Some folks just don’t get it. They will argue with a **** mirror.

      Our ten refineries are operating at 104% as of Friday. Anyone that thinks refineries are slow rolling are crazy. The hilarious part is when I told folks to buy refining stock during covid just ignored me. I bought 10,000 more shares in the 20’s. It is now $105.62. Yep, even an old coonie saw this coming

        Certainly not arguing with you but help educate me. How do you operate at over 100%?

            Good question M16.

            Let’s say a refinery crude unit has a design capacity of 100K bpd. In times like these, they will push the limits and run 110K bpd. Just have to be on top of your game and optimize process chemicals and operating parameters to shove more through than the system was designed for.

              Let’s say a refinery crude unit has a design capacity of 100K bpd. In times like these, they will push the limits and run say 110K bpd for example.

                        You did well on the stock, congratulations. Hopefully it will get you closer to getting to east tx with the rest of us old “poor” refinery workers.

                            The numbers say 250K/annual puts you in about the top 7%.

                              Exactly

                                This is an example of the tail wagging the dog. Never mind that many retailers are closed during usual business hours or that restaurants are quoting enormous wait times even though 25% of their tables are empty. When what you’re seeing doesn’t agree with what you’re being told you’re expected to discount the veracity of your eyesight. Absolutely crazy.
