OMG -- some of you need to GET A GRIP
and settle down...
you clearly did not read my post...
1. despite my wanting to continue to hold my full position, it was my husband (joint owner!) who insisted I lighten up for the time being, and I did just that... so what???... nothing unreasonable there at all, he has the right to do that...
2. I continue to hold 100,000 shares, which I am guessing is probably a far greater vote of confidence in PYR, the company and its management, than many posters here have... and, I have no intention of selling any of these in the foreseable future, possibly for YEARS if we continue to trend up from here (and I fully expect that to happen)
3. of course I watch PYR very closely, and if warranted, I fully intend to BUY MORE if I see the right situation and timing come up... and I have a funny feeling that will be happening, possibly even within days from now... I have a lot of unused buying power, which I (and my husband) will not be hesitant to deploy
4. I said nothing disrepectful toward Peter, and I do have a right to express my personal opinions... that's what this board is here for!... hey, I really like Peter, and find his communications and involvement with "regular" retail investors to be great, and refreshing... I wish that more CEOs did it, but I can see why they might not want to
5. people need to stop to think about what happens every single day with trading in PYR, and any other stock... for every trade, there is a buyer -- and a seller!... people go in and out of stocks for many reasons, sometimes simply for portfolio rebalancing purposes, like I have just done... and yes, at some point we will all sell, otherwise how do you ever benefit from your investment and buy food, pay for housing, etc.???... might be a day from now, or years from now... I remember a few months ago when a PYR insider sold off a few shares... OMG, did he ever get scolded here!... it was pathetic
6. some of the negative, aggressive, and hostile reactions are ridiculous... actually, they make me want to buy back those shares right away!... do you really think I'd put all of my $$$ into a single stock?... that would be too stressful, and perhaps not the smartest thing to do... sure, it could prove to be the best move one ever made, but maybe not... I have a very high risk tolerance, but would never be 100% into any one stock... once in a while I might go as high as 60%, but rarely... do any of you have 100% of your portfolio invested in PYR?... let me know
7. my shares are really a drop in the bucket, so don't make it out to be something bigger than it is... to be honest, it was pretty easy to do the trades, and when I did, the market price didn't change by much, and in fact sometimes went UP right after!... LOL, the only shareholder I'd be watching is Peter... holy cr*p, he holds 52% of all the shares -- AND HE AIN'T SELLING !!!

I mean last week you have 200,000 shares of PYR at $4 which is $800,000 and that is 60% of your portfolio which means the whole thing is about $1.2M. Don't get me wrong but I love PYR but.... Should you not have 15-20 stocks so you minimize risk and have PYR about 5% of it? Why would someone risk that much on a stock? How can one sleep at night? I just scratch my head.

Highly doubt anyone here is going to take investment advice from you Fdfd12. To all longs please do your DD and you'll know Pyrogenesis is really that incredible. It is like buying 5-6 companies in one where their proprietary tech is definitely disruptive in their respective targeted industries. Long and strong PYROGENESIS!

I sleep very well with an obcenely large chunk of PYR and HPQ. Fdfd why not 1% in every stock while your at it and then you will know why you will never ever get rich. Probably to much of a nervous monkey jumping around all kind of stocks with zero patience you are. Getting financial advice from fdfd!!! Now that is a real joke!

Thinkdbig I am rich. And it wasn't from putting eggs in one basket. I own 20-24 stocks and they are buy and hold. The only one that will be nervous is you if this thing doesn't work out. You think mutual funds have 1 or 2 stocks in their multi billion dollar porto?

Sandy, too much information. Completely unnecessary and that's partly why the scrutiny and nit picking over words. Your money, your decision, and going into details how your husband told you to sell???? Come on. Should I share my personal story and why I am struggling to make my family's life better and how 50k shares of PYR would make a world of difference? Nobody cares.

My thoughts exactly. That's kinda what I was getting at. Nobody cares size of position or when you are selling. Comes off as unprofessional
