The massive earnings beat and aggressive debt paydown should drive a strong positive reaction. Monitor the investor webcast for any forward guidance on refining margins and capital allocation. The stock may gap up on open; consider taking profits if the move exceeds 5-7% intraday given the cyclical nature of refining margins.
