Owned the stock when it was RRI, Reliant energy, bought some in the high twenty dollar range, kept adding when Reliant sold retail and changed name to RRI Energy and added when RRI merged with Mirant Energy to become GenOn Energy.

Pretty stale "sticky."

"Spotlights" aren't as important as stock performance in the REAL marketplace.

This company seems to be stuck. All IMHO.

NEW YORK (Dow Jones)--Hedge fund manager John Paulson's firm reported stakes in Caesars Entertainment (CZR), Viacom (VIA, VIAB) and Prestige Brands Holdings (PBH) in the first quarter and reduced stakes of Tenet Healthcare Corp. (THC) and SunTrust Banks Inc. (STI)
It also reported a stake of 31.57 million shares in Genon Energy Inc. (GEN), up from 4.7 million shares reported at the end of the fourth quarter.
The value of Paulson's fund holdings rose 8.6% in the first quarter, to $15 billion, after a losing streak in 2011 that shaved 52% off the value of his holdings.
The fund company reported a 12.37-million-share stake in Caesars, along with 1 million class B shares of Viacom and 1 million shares of Prestige Brands. It reported holding 2.7 million shares of Tenet Healthcare, down from 10 million in the fourth quarter. The firm also reported 5.6 million shares of SunTrust, down from 11.8 million in the fourth quarter.
Paulson launched a campaign to push for changes at Hartford Financial Services Group (HIG) during the quarter. In March, Hartford announced a radical overhaul of its business to satisfy Paulson's demands for "drastic" change. The insurer agreed to stop selling variable annuities and put its life insurance arm up for sale, focusing on its property and casualty business.
On Monday, Paulson said in a securities filing that he had dropped his activist stance toward Hartford. He owned 37.6 million shares, or 8.5%, of Hartford.
Paulson also reported a 1.6 million share stake in HCA Holdings Inc. (HCA), a 2 million share stake in Novellus Systems (NVLS), and 1 million share stake in Allied Nevada Gold Corp. (ANV) for the first quarter.
The firm reported reduced stakes in several holdings, including News Corp. (NWS), publisher of The Wall Street Journal and this newswire, at 300,000 shares versus 4.9 million in the fourth quarter, and Delphi Automotive, at 45.5 million shares versus 51.7 million in the fourth quarter.

The credentials of these 2 recently appointed directors is one of my reasons for liking GEN.I think they can bring something positive to the table with their Energy sector regulatory experience(one being former Secretary of Energy and the 2nd one being former Federal Energy Regulatory Commission chair and Deputy Secretary of Energy).

Nice find and I agree, best to buy at these low levels as 2012 will be a good year for GenOn IMO
GenOn's current hedge profile locks in what we estimate will be trough EBITDA in 2011 and 2012. In addition, we estimate management's projected $155 million of annual synergies from its merger could be worth $2 per share and model full synergies by 2012.
