NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 4:18 p.m. ET — Market closed Valero Energy Corporation (NYSE: VLO) heads into Monday’s session at the center of two powerful—and potentially conflicting—crosscurrents: a U.S. equity market that is ending 2025 near record territory, and a crude-oil tape that has been pressured by renewed concerns about a global supply glut heading into 2026.
