The energy sector has delivered incredible returns for investors so far this year. The Energy Select SPDR ETF (NYSEMKT: XLE) is up 32% in total returns, almost double the 18% for the S&P 500 index over the same period as rising demand for oil and gas push energy prices -- and oil stock profits -- steadily higher.
Yet at the same time, the future of energy is still heavily pointed toward renewables, and investors who consider both the near-term and long-term implications, can find a handful of top energy stocks you can buy to benefit from today's surging demand for all things energy, while still being positioned for profits in the low-carbon future. Three top energy stocks that look very compelling today include wind turbine blade supplier TPI Composites (NASDAQ: TPIC) , integrated energy giant Phillips 66 (NYSE: PSX) , and infrastructure operator Brookfield Infrastructure (NYSE: BIP) (NYSE: BIPC) .
Chances are, there's something compelling that makes at least one a good fit for investors of all kinds. If you're looking to add a top energy stock to your portfolio this month, keep reading to learn which of these three might be the perfect, timely energy stock buy for you.
