I see "Goldman lifts view on refining, upgrades oil firms" and I also see Motley Fool issued a report on off all the thousands of stocks in the market to watch for taking a long position 5 of them and Holly is one of the 5. So it gets me to afirm in my mind whats what... so the facts are 2010 EPS estimates are $2.84, and the acquisition of the Tulsa refinery provides it with a new outlet to use its strong execution skills and focus its capital budget on hig-return projects. I say keep your HOC shares tight to your chest and hold on for a ride, likely up.

Also I suggest my fellow Holly Corporation bretheren on this board take the time to view http://www.energymarketwatch.net/ode.htm where a jr oil and gas is reviewed and a very compelling case is made to be long as they have very deep reserves that have never been tapped and they are now capitalized / have a plan to tap it. It should raise a large amount.
