Hi Greenbackd,
In relation to UAHC, according to the SEC, Lloyd Miller has been selling his position and as of the 15th of January, his stake was 3.2%. Now that he’s under the 5% threshold, I’m guessing that he’s probably disposed of the rest of his holdings.
One activist you’ve forgotten about is Bruce Galloway. He and Strategic Turnaround Partners hold 9% of UAHC and are eager to push management at UAHC to “do the right thing” and liquidate. He posted an interesting 13D, attacking UAHC management for maintaining extravagant offices and high salaries.
There’s a good summary of the situation here – http://carrigaline.blogspot.com/2009/11/united-american-healthcare-corporation.html
