Workers at Marathon Petroleum's (NYSE:MPC) Galveston Bay Refinery in Texas will return to work following a more than four-month strike that ended last night when union members ratified a contract with the company.
MPC enjoyed a quick 8% jump when the MPLX/MWE deal was announced, but the firm says the recent decline in the share price implies that “little to no credit is now being given for the deal in MPC’s shares, either because of fears that the deal won’t close or that MPC will have to contribute more cash."
