AI insight

AI-generated

Phillips 66's refining margins and utilization surged, but the Iran war drove up crude prices, hurting hedge positions. The net effect is a margin squeeze for refiners that are long hedges, while spot refining margins benefit from higher product prices. The channel is input_cost (crude) and supply_shortage (war disruption). Impact is global but concentrated on US refiners with hedging programs.
