Exxon, Chevron set for $26B quarter; refiners hold up in Iran war trade

Marathon Petroleum and Valero Energy jumped about 3.8% each in late-morning trading on Monday. Exxon Mobil added 3.4%. Chevron was up 2.2%. Brent crude was up more than 4%, above $79 a barrel, after President Donald Trump said the U.S. is bringing back its naval blockade of Iran.

That’s down from $4.24 last month, but more than the $3.15 seen a year ago. Diesel at $4.80.
