ConocoPhillips and DT Midstream are two energy stocks that investors may want to consider buying before July ends, according to an analysis by The Motley Fool. The largest energy-focused ETF rose nearly 11% for the month ending July 27, while the S&P 500 gained less than 1%, as renewed tensions in Iran boosted the sector. ConocoPhillips, an upstream company, is seen as a riskier near-term bet due to its correlation with oil prices, but it has a strong portfolio including LNG assets and projects that could add $3 billion in cash flow by 2028 and $7 billion by 2029. DT Midstream, a pipeline operator with a $3.4 billion backlog and a 2.4% dividend yield, offers less direct exposure to commodity prices and has delivered a 168% share-price gain over three years.
