The read, from its own figures
What its numbers say
- MPC closes above its 50-day average ($419.31), and the 50-day sits above the 200-day ($291.78): on both averages the chart reads as an uptrend.
- At $435.70, MPC is 11.8% below its 1-year high of $493.98, set on October 19, 2026, and 169.1% above its 1-year low of $161.93 (December 31, 2025).
- Over the past month MPC rose 3.2%, from $422.33 to $435.70.
- MPC trades at 15.1x its last twelve months of earnings and 7.2x the next twelve months' estimate, so analysts expect earnings 108.8% higher.
- Its P/E is 70.5% above the 8.8x median of the 2 other oil & gas refining & marketing companies we track (VLO, PSX).
- MPC's 30-day volatility, 41.8% a year, works out to a typical daily move of about 2.6%.
- Yahoo Finance puts its beta at 0.51: over five years of monthly returns, MPC moved about 0.51% for each 1% move of the S&P 500.
What would change the read
- A close under the 50-day average, $419.31 (−3.8% from the last close), would turn the read to a pullback; under the 200-day, $291.78 (−33.0%), the longer rise is in question.
- A close above $493.98 (+13.4%) would be a new 1-year high; below $161.93 (−62.8%), a new 1-year low.
How it is computed
- Prices are Yahoo Finance's daily candles for MPC, the same ones the chart below draws; the P/E, forward P/E and beta are Yahoo Finance quote fields.
- The averages are simple means of the last 50 and 200 closes; the 1-year high and low are the highest high and lowest low of the last 252 sessions; the 30-day volatility is the standard deviation of the past month's daily returns, annualized with the square root of 252.
- Peers are the other companies Yahoo Finance files under oil & gas refining & marketing among the assets we track, not a full industry screen; the median counts those with a positive P/E.
- Every sentence here is written by code from those figures, refreshed daily; nobody edits it for MPC by hand. It describes what the price and the multiples have done, not what they will do, and it is not advice.
