Significance 5

Eric A Fisher, SVP, sold 7,500 shares of Valero Energy at $268.17, reducing his holdings from 27,242 to 19,742 shares—a 27.5% reduction in position size. The sale occurred at $268.17 while the current price stands at $260.41, and the stock traded within a 52-week range of $130.78–$272.17. His prior VLO sales show mixed outcomes: of three measurable 90-day periods, none were well-timed by the standard that negative 90-day returns indicate good sell timing, with actual 90-day returns of +8.1%, +8.2%, and +11.5% on his March 2026 sales. The transaction reflects a material reduction in equity exposure at a price near the 52-week range's upper bound.

Eric A Fisher sold 7,500 shares of Valero Energy on 2026-06-18 at $236.90, reducing his holdings by 21.6% from 34,742 to 27,242 shares, for a total value of $1,776,780.75.

His prior trades at Valero showed mixed timing results, with 0 of 3 prior sells well-timed at the 90-day mark—all three subsequently posted positive returns (ranging from +8.1% to +11.5%), meaning he sold ahead of gains. The fundamental backdrop shows VLO with annual revenue growth of -5.5%, though the company maintains solid profitability at $1.3B net income on $32.4B quarterly revenue and a 16.68 P/E. This sale represents a material reduction in a significant personal position by a senior executive amid a period of stock weakness.

Significance 7

SVP Eric A Fisher sold 8,711 shares at blended average $228.19, eliminating entire 8.7K position at VLO

Eric A Fisher, Senior Vice President at Valero Energy, executed 3 separate sales totaling 8,711 shares for $1,987,772.32, eliminating his entire shareholding. The sales occurred on 2026-03-11 and 2026-03-12 at prices ($227.69, $238.73, $238.47) near current levels ($235.81 is at the 52-week high). The complete liquidation is notable given Valero's recent price momentum (30-day: +18.2%, 90-day: +40.1%) and reasonable profitability ($1.1B net income on $32.2B revenue), though the elevated P/E of 65.69 and annual revenue decline of -5.5% provide context for the seller's timing. The full exit of a senior executive's position warrants investor attention as a data point regarding insider conviction at current valuations.

Significance 4

VLO CFO Jason Fraser sold 9,933 shares at $174.02; holds 134,196 post-transaction

Jason W. Fraser, EVP & CFO of Valero Energy, sold 9,933 shares at $174.02 on 2025-11-21, reducing his holdings by 6.9% to 134,196 shares. The sale occurred near the stock's 52-week high of $185.43 and above the current price of $174.37. Valero's fundamentals show annual revenue declined 10.3% year-over-year to $32.2B in the latest quarter, with net income at $1.1B and a P/E ratio of 35.59, reflecting elevated valuation multiples for the energy sector. The sale represents routine portfolio activity by a CFO with substantial ongoing holdings; without schedule disclosure or prior pattern data, the trade cannot be characterized as strategically timed but warrants noting the execution price relative to recent trading highs and current depressed energy-sector sentiment.
