I think they are like Buffet and into companies for the long haul. I believe they will have to do Insider filing now though so we will see these moves via SEC reports. They still have not responded to my email, but my gut tells me that having them as a big investor is a very good thing.Whenever Steelhead decides to liquidate it's position on PRGN, that is going to casue it to drop quickly, right? So we should exit before they do.
I'm going to continue to hold my shares. I still like this Ag/China play long-term. I can't keep up with you guys on all of the dips and blips, so I'm just going to ride it out.FEED up in the Pre-Market. I still would urge anyone still with shares to sell here.

At the 1Q announcement time we had "documented" 30K shares. And as part of the 30K shares I missed all of moderated holdings, you "only" had 10K, and I only had 2.5K shares. If your going to hold 30K, I plan on building to 8K, 75K shares will be conservative by the time 2Q announcement is made.We shall see.Love the e-mail. The fact that they are "on board" (pun intended) here is a very good thing. Not because the stock has to go up, but because it's unlikely to go down much from here. In a way this tells me the bottom is in unless something goes bump. Best news we can get is the ATM offering concluding.I expect to have at least 30,000 shares of the stock before earnings and friends and colleagues that follow my stock thread at Footballguys.com (the website I own) will likely have another 75,000 shares as well.

And this: LinkWondering if it's time to bail on UNG/CHK for a bit.Crisis threatens future gas supply: IEA
Mon Jun 29, 2009 8:18am EDT
LONDON (Reuters) - Global gas demand is likely to fall for the first time in half a century this year, threatening investments in new production and a serious supply crunch from 2013, the International Energy Agency said on Monday.
"We have moved from a tight supply and demand balance with extremely high gas prices to an easing one with plummeting prices," Nobuo Tanaka, executive director of the IEA said on the day the energy adviser to 27 industrialized countries also cut sharply its mid-term forecast for oil demand.
"Both markets face enormous uncertainty surrounding the timing, pace and extent of any economic rebound, which affects all prognoses for oil and gas market fundamentals over the next five years."
After a 1 percent increase in 2008, gas demand in the OECD group of countries fell by 4 percent in the first quarter of 2009 and is expected to further decline through the year.
"For the first time in 50 years, the world will witness a drop in global gas demand," the IEA said in its Natural Gas Market Review 2009 published on Monday.
The future of United States gas output remains one of the major uncertainties in global gas markets, it said.
Falling sales volumes and low prices have slashed producers' cash flows, while regulatory uncertainty and the credit crunch will likely further jeopardize new projects and undermine long-term energy security when economies recover, the IEA warned.
"Financing problems are likely to bedevil all new construction projects in 2009 and even into 2010," it said, adding that unless several new liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects were approved over the next 18 months there would be a severe lack of new production capacity after 2012.
Although very few new LNG projects have been sanctioned in the last few years, the next three years will see production capacity grow from 240 billion cubic meters a year at the end of 2008 to at least 370 billion cubic meters at a time of weak demand for gas, the IEA said.
"Thus, 2009 and 2010 will test the flexibility and resilience of the global LNG market," it said.
The IEA said oil-based gas prices in Europe were likely to decline through 2009 to an average of around $7-8 per million British thermal units (mmbtu), slashing profits for major producers like Russian gas export monopoly Gazprom (GAZP.MM: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) which sold gas at about $12 per mmbtu in 2008.
"The world's largest producer, Russia, faces considerable challenges, both financial and technical, already leading to project delays," the IEA said.
POWER DEMAND
Gas demand from the power generation has slumped as a result of the economic crisis and is likely to be weak throughout 2009.
But investment and financing uncertainty hindering new gas production facilities could increase gas demand in the longer term as utilities opt to build more relatively inexpensive, quick to build and clean-burning gas-fired plants, further pressuring fuel supplies in the next decade.
"Greater deployment of renewables over the medium term may also enhance the role of gas to balance intermittent sources such as wind," the IEA said.
Increasing dependency on gas, particularly in Europe, is seen as a threat to energy security.
The IEA said on Monday Europe's gas supplies from Russia are under near constant threat of disruption.
make sure you let us know the minute you sell.TIANot sure what to think about Natural Gas right now, but things like this make me nervous:

I checked my pants. I seem to be missing my *****. Bidu at 301, Cme at 321. Only about 50 clicks of love in a week. I suck!!I'm holding very few positions at this point and half of them are shorting the market through july options. It is so hard not biting on some names i like. BAIDU at 273. CME was under 300 earlier.
Oil jumps above $70 on Nigerian platform attackThere's not really a link between markets and news stories in that way. Now, when you have a big news story that removes uncertainty, that can have an effect. But people don't go "a pipeline was bombed, I better buy oil".I am absolutely :X about my CHK options. Talk about abuse. I think this is six days straight in the red, with today being the most brutal of all.

The stock market absolutely, positively hates me with a fiery passion.I feel your pain. Nigerian rebels bomb a huge pipeline and oil drops.

Yeah that's where I am at. I am watching HEB/PRGN pairs. It's holding at 2.70 for HEB and 3.87 for PRGN ($1.17). If the spread gets below $1.10 I am doing the switch. I also have a 5,000 buy in for PRGN at 3.85.come on and get back to $2.80, HEB, so I can sell you and buy more PRGN.
TrimTabs: Insider Selling Signals Stocks Topping OutFAZ<hi?Insider selling is sending bearish signals, according to TrimTabs Investment Research. In its Weekly Liquidity Review, the Bay Area research shop writes that it remains “fully bearish (100% short) on U.S. equities,” citing the macroeconomic climate, the gauges of demand and supply indicators including selling by corporate insiders. TrimTabs writes:
The best-informed market participants—the top insiders who run U.S. public companies—are signaling they believe stock prices are topping out. Based on filings of Form 4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, insiders have sold $2.9 billion in June, 9.7 times more than the $300 million they have bought. Insider selling this month is the highest since November 2008.
Particularly worrisome is the persistent weakness of insider buying. On the past 60 days, insiders bought only $1.0 billion, the lowest level since November 2004.
As TrimTabs writes, “If the economy is starting to recover, then why are insiders buying so few shares?” That seems to be a question investors may want to consider.
David any concerns with the dilution and earnings? Uninformed analysts my be calling for a bigger earnings per share number then is now possible.(similar to SBLK's earnings last quarter with dilution) There revenue might be down as well as they renegotiated some charters at a lower rate this quarter.(nothing major) They might also take a bigger depreciation expense then they have in the past. I think PRGN is a good value but if earnings are misinterpreted it could get beat up.I got 5,000 PRGN at 3.85 too. Still feels like it could go a little lower, but I plan to keep adding each day until I am very strong here heading into earnings.
I don't see how it goes lower at all. Yes a lot of misinformation about this exists right now because of the significant dilution. But regardless of actual earnings, I expect this to run the week of earnings. The prudent move will likely be to sell some before earnings and some after.I just put in another 5,000 buy at 3.80 if it triggersDavid any concerns with the dilution and earnings? Uninformed analysts my be calling for a bigger earnings per share number then is now possible.(similar to SBLK's earnings last quarter with dilution) There revenue might be down as well as they renegotiated some charters at a lower rate this quarter.(nothing major) They might also take a bigger depreciation expense then they have in the past.

With that, I'm out of PRGN nowIn for a bundle of PRGN at 3.81.

There is a dividend date. It's a long ways off still (and after earnings I believe).I'm going to make the jump into PRGN, I've been following this thread waaaay to long not to step up. One question, how do you figure out the date you must purchase by to take advantage of the dividend? I could see this trading sideways for another couple of weeks, but would like to make sure I take advantage of that.
With that, I'm out of PRGN nowIn for a bundle of PRGN at 3.81.![]()

I'm in now too at 3.818. Double kiss of death for PRGN.With that, I'm out of PRGN nowIn for a bundle of PRGN at 3.81.![]()
Even OTIS can't mess with this one. The second PRGN announced the 2nd dilution, I was thinking wow this is going to set things up for a HUGE gain around the 2nd quarter earnings. We will shake out some more people that give up on this stock in the next few weeks, but the smart money is locking down here. We will start gapping up on most days in July I think. Conservatively I will be shocked if this stock does not see $4.75 - $5.00 by August.If I can just get the miracle HEB to get approval here soon, then I will have an even bigger position here soon.With that, I'm out of PRGN nowIn for a bundle of PRGN at 3.81.![]()
