A commentator I trust: Bret Jensen. Over at SeekingAlpha he writes:

Summary:

• Oasis Petroleum is down some 15% from its highs late last year on a weather-related earnings disappointment.
• This is a good entry point to accumulate shares, as the company is fairly cheap given its growth prospects.
• Oasis has been also rumored to be a buyout candidate, could soon join the S&P 500, and reports earnings after the bell today.

One of the few energy stocks to not have a solid 2014 so far is Bakken play, Oasis Petroleum. The stock lost some ~15% from its highs late last year, before rebounding a bit recently. I added to my position at ~$42.50 a share. A good portion of the decline was triggered by an earnings miss in its last reported quarter.
