Analyst Lloyd Byrne has raised the target price of ConocoPhillips (ConocoPhillips, COP) from $159 to $174 and maintains a buy rating on the stock.

In a research report for investors, this analyst stated that since the outbreak of the Middle East conflict, the company has been one of the few operators active in the A&D (acquisitions and divestitures) market, and has managed to sell mature assets at higher prices.

Jefferies added that although the company's third-quarter performance is expected to generally meet expectations after the price correction, there is still potential for an increase in shareholder returns.
