What happened · big days
10 big days in a year, and what we hold on each
A big day is a close more than 2.24% from the one before, three times MPLX’s median day (0.75%). On 4 of the 10, its peer group moved the same way at least half as far. We show what we hold. We never name a cause.

A story on the same day is not a cause, and a group move is not proof either. Group: the median of DINO, PAA, SOBO and PAGP that day, the largest companies in MPLX’s SEC industry; “moved with MPLX” means the same direction and at least half the size.
What’s next · results
Before the next report: what the first day after the last four did
Six trading days after each results filing (SEC 8-K, Item 2.02). MPLX reports before the open, so day 1 is that day’s close. 3 of 4 times, day 6 ended on the same side as day 1.

Next report: expected early FebruaryEstimated from the dates of its last four results filings. Not announced. Since the Nov 3 report: −4.56%. Four reports is a small sample.
Each line is MPLX’s close against its close before the filing, on licensed end-of-day closes. What happened after each report, not a forecast; a move on the day is not a cause.
Same industry
MPLX against four same-industry peers, a year at 100
MPLX is up 9.7% in a year. HF Sinclair is up 91.1%, Plains GP 53.7%, Plains All American Pipeline 51.6% and South Bow 31.0%. All four did more. Weekly closes, Nov 7, 2025 = 100, on a log scale, so the same percentage move is the same height on every line.
End-of-day closes (Databento EOD), the last close of each week. The four peers are the largest US-listed companies by market value in MPLX’s SEC industry (Pipe Lines (No Natural Gas)) with a year of closes. It shows what the closes did; a move here is not a cause, a forecast or a call.
