Migration of dense gaseous clumps that form in young protostellar disks via gravitational fragmentation is investigated to determine the likelihood of giant-planet formation. We show that gaseous clumps that form in the outer regions of the disk (> 100 au) through disk fragmentation often migrate toward the central star on timescales from a few thousand to few tens of thousands of years. The tidal mass loss helps the clumps to significantly slow down or even halt their inward migration at a distance of a few tens of AU from the protostar.
