In a perfect world, Oasis Petroleum Inc. (NYSE:OAS) and Shanda Games Limited (NASDAQ:GAME) would always reflect the true underlying value of their respective companies. In reality, GAME and OAS are both well-watched, and frequently-traded, stocks that can take on a life of their own, reflecting ever-changing opinions of the companies rather than the companies' actual value. There's an upside to that disconnect, however - knowing each chart may or may not reflect the actual value of Shanda Games Limited and Oasis Petroleum means you can take the clues given to us by their chart. After all, since charts are just a reflection of public opinion, and since public opinion is actually rather predictable, the way things appear to be - visually - may actually be the way things are. And in this case, the way things are with OAS happens to be a polar opposite with the way things are with GAME.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Dan Caplinger]
Schlumberger (NYSE: SLB ) will release its quarterly report on Friday, capping an up-and-down quarter for the stock. With U.S. natural gas prices having risen somewhat from their lows last year and with oil prices remaining above $100 per barrel, Schlumberger earnings have the fundamental support in place to drive higher.

Admittedly, Chevron (NYSE: CVX ) is partnering with Saudi Aramco in production efforts in the Partitioned Zone between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. And oil-field services and technology kingpin Schlumberger (NYSE: SLB ) has planted major facilities in the country. But it seems that a more widespread use of western companies' capabilities could do wonders for Saudi reserves and production longevity.

Surprisingly, our energy boom could help China, but not in the way you might think. The energy sector in the U.S. has been an incubator for innovative drilling techniques and technologies over the past few years. Now we have a near monopoly on the technology. Like the U.S., China has massive shale gas deposits, and the technology we possess could help them develop domestic sources and allow them to become more energy self-sufficient. We're starting to see it happen. Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE: RDS-A ) has signed a deal with PetroChina (NYSE: PTR ) to spend $1 billion a year to develop shale resources there. Also, fracking�specialists�Haliburton (NYSE: HAL ) and Schlumberger (NYSE: SLB ) are partnering with various Chinese companies to supply the country with hydraulic fracturing equipment and specialty fluids.�

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Dan Caplinger]
Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT ) has dropped 1.1% after heavy-equipment peer Deere (NYSE: DE ) reported earnings this morning. Deere has fallen more than 5% despite beating estimates for its first-quarter results, as investors instead focused on a weakening sales forecast. Although Deere's agricultural-equipment focus leaves it somewhat more exposed to unpredictable events like weather and crop prices, Caterpillar shares the same general vulnerability to overall economic conditions that have led some customers to defer making large capital expenditures. Without a broader-based recovery, Caterpillar may continue to lag.
