UPDATE - Barclays upgraded Valero Energy (NYSE: VLO) to Overweight from Equal Weight. Price target boosted from $31 to $35.

Barclays analyst says, "Following its recent underperformance, we think VLO now offers a compelling entry point with limited downside risk. We also reiterate our short term positive outlook for the sector and think all independent refiners could offer substantial upside over the next 6-9 months."

Barclays adjusts FY11 EPS estimate from $4.75 to $4.60 and FY12 from $4.80 to $4.70.
