Valero's most recent trend suggests a bullish bias. One trading opportunity on Valero is a Bull Put Spread using a strike $45.00 short put and a strike $40.00 long put offers a potential 19.33% return on risk over the next 22 calendar days. Maximum profit would be generated if the Bull Put Spread were to expire worthless, which would occur if the stock were above $45.00 by expiration. The full premium credit of $0.81 would be kept by the premium seller. The risk of $4.19 would be incurred if the stock dropped below the $40.00 long put strike price.

Lawmaker says Texas agency moving too fast on power market reform
Tue, 26 Nov 2013 00:22:42 GMT
Reuters – A powerful Texas legislator told state regulators at a hearing on Monday that they are moving too quickly to reform the $29 billion wholesale power market, saying they should not take major steps without input from lawmakers. Texas Sen. Troy Fraser, chairman of the Texas Senate Committee on Natural Resources, urged the three-member Texas Public Utility Commission (PUC) to “slow down.” Fraser called the hearing after the PUC late last month took an initial step that observers believe will lead to creation of a so-called “capacity market” to bolster state electric reserves at an annual cost of $4 billion or more, Fraser said. After months of delay, two of three PUC commissioners said they support a mandatory reserve margin as a cushion against blackouts, rather than the current “target” reserve of 13.75 percent.
