Somebody wake me up when it's sitting at 3 cents...I may buy some more then.
Looks like it's a bad time to have a lot of money invested in certain marijuana companies. Hopefully CBIS will be unscathed.

6 or 7 more cents go and I'll be ready to buy back in...
I'm glad that they aren't just yet...still planning on adding shares over the next few months so the lower the better as far as I'm concerned.
Why they would do a reverse split in August is beyond me. Without significant sales and revenue, nobody is going to be gobbling up shares of QTMM on the Nasdaq either. Especially not at $5 a share.
I dumped a quarter of my shares today, hoping to pick them back up if it drops down to ten cents again.
The good news is, I want the stock to drop in price and the stock market always does the complete opposite of what I want, 99% of the time. If you want to become a millionaire, just do the exact opposite of whatever I do.
I just added as well...you can never have too many..lol.
Subpenny would be cool with me. I wouldn't mind owning a million shares.
Someone has probably already posted this, but anyways...

There's a huge downside to a reverse split, it's a lot easier for a 14 cent stock skyrocket to $1.40 a share than it is for a stock to go from $1.40 a share to $14 a share, which is what would have to happen to make the same profit if you've got a tenth of the shares you had before.
Thanks for the cheap shares, whoever you are.
They must have a process that doesn't infringe on QMCs patents.
I think there's no mention of QM yet because they're just a little behind the other companies in starting up, but by the sounds of it, they've made huge progress in just the last couple of years. Hopefully not too long now before a contract.

Quantum dot-enhanced TVs make the running at CES
06 Jan 2015
Consumer displays market for the fluorescent nanoparticles 'set to explode' says new QD Vision executive.

Optical films incorporating fluorescent quantum-dot nanoparticles have appeared in new LCD TVs and monitors from several leading brands at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, suggesting that demand for the materials is set to grow rapidly.
Samsung, LG and China-based TCL all announced LCD TVs featuring the technology, touted as a low-cost way to improve color reproduction, while Philips and AOC, another Chinese producer, showed off 27-inch monitors.
The idea behind the quantum dot films is to improve the color saturation of lower-end LCDs based on LED backlights, thereby delivering the kind of image quality more typically associated with plasma and organic LED screens but at a much lower cost.
Rather than being the source of the light itself – as is the case with quantum-dot laser diode structures – the technology being used in the new displays is relatively simple, with the nanocrystals effectively acting as a phosphor to convert blue light into the full range of colors produced by the display.
TCL said that its new 55-inch LCD TV, which features quantum dots developed by Massachusetts-based QD Vision, would now be launched outside of China. It was first released in TCL’s domestic market late last year.
According to the firm, its addition of QD Vision’s “Color IQ” technology means that the new H9700 QLED model can deliver 110% of full-gamut NTSC color performance. “Until now, most mainstream LCD TV designs delivered 60-70% of the NTSC color gamut standard,” reckons the Chinese company. “Working together, TCL and QD Vision have delivered a state-of-the-art television with full-gamut color at LCD TV prices.”
Not to be outdone, CES keynoter Samsung touted its new “ultra-high definition” LCD TVs, also based on nanocrystal-enhanced colors, while LG trumpeted the arrival of its 4K “ULTRA HD” LCD TV incorporating quantum dots ranging between 2 nm and 10 nm in diameter – the smaller dots producing the shorter-wavelength colors.
Impending QD proliferation
All are following in the footsteps of Sony, which has been incorporating QD Vision’s quantum dots in its TVs for more than a year, while handheld devices such as Amazon’s latest Kindle Fire HDX also use the nanocrystal approach.
Further evidence for the impending proliferation of quantum-dot technology for displays was provided by MIT spin-out QD Vision’s announcement that it had raised “significant” new funding to meet what it described as surging demand for its Color IQ-branded quantum dots.
“The new funding will help accelerate the growth of the company, particularly by expanding sales and marketing operations in China – the global center of TV manufacturing and consumption,” QD Vision said.
Although it did not disclose exactly how much additional cash had been raised, or its source, the company did add that former Lenovo CEO Steve Ward had just been appointed as its new executive chairman.
“QD Vision is a clear technology leader in an exciting new category that is about to explode,” said Ward in a company statement. Earlier backers of QD Vision have included In-Q-Tel, the venture wing of the US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

Mass production imminent
However, QD Vision is not the only company looking to benefit from a production scale-up of the color-enhancing materials. Back in 2013, chemicals giant Dow Electronic Materials signed an exclusive licensing deal to make and sell quantum dots developed by UK-headquartered Nanoco Technologies, and has recently begun construction of what it says will be the world’s first large-scale manufacturing plant for cadmium-free quantum dots in Cheonan, Korea.
Those materials are set to appear in Dow’s own “Trevista” branded products for electronic display applications.
In December, Nanoco said that it had signed a manufacturing contract with Dow, and that commercial production of the quantum dots should begin in the first half of 2015.
That announcement came shortly after Nanoco revealed that LG’s CES-launched 4K ULTRA HD TV would be using its quantum dot technology, while it is also working closely with Osram on general lighting applications.
Founded in 2001, Nanoco has since developed a molecular seeding process suitable for making quantum dots on an industrial scale. “This process not only allows the company to produce on a large scale, it also offers precise control over the particle size,” states the firm on its web site.
The approach also contrasts with the alternative method of making quantum dots, known as “high temperature dual injection”, which Nanoco says is more difficult to scale up.
Another major industrial player involved is 3M, which has been collaborating with venture-backed Nanosys on cadmium-free quantum dots. California-based Nanosys has itself partnered with Samsung for the past four years, and the two announced a new multi-year agreement at CES 2015 that covers both display and lighting applications.
They quoted Jennifer Colegrove, an analyst at Touch Display Research, who sees huge market potential for the new technology. "This is one of the biggest breakthrough technologies for LCD in the last several years," she said. "We forecast the quantum dot display and lighting component market will reach $9.6 billion by 2023

Personally, I can't see why anyone in their right mind would sell today. The chances of something good coming out of this show are pretty great in my opinion, not to mention the exposure it will give them. Oh well, to each their own....not my loss.
Hopefully something will come from the showing at the CES, otherwise the share price will probably stay pretty stagnant, judging by the trading from today's news. You wouldn't think that the price would drop with the potential of what could take place this year, but people are strange animals. I know that I won't be selling any time soon.
Anyone that shorts this now is a bonehead.
Sorry if someone has already posted this...
Interesting article.
Hybrid 'dots' offer cheaper way to run fuel cells
http://news360.com/article/260474215
Wondering if a few people decided to cash in yesterday to free up some money for the Alibaba IPO, might explain the drop. Just a thought anyways.
Thanks for the cheap shares today...whoohoo!
Could be that the QD technology is still too new for Apple to commit to producing products with them before all of the bugs are worked out. Either way, I still think that with all the buzz of a new generation of Tv's with Quantum Dot displays, there will be a lot of new eyes on the technology and the companies that can produce Quantum Dots. There definitely aren't very many to choose from if you're an investor, and next to none that trade at less than 25 cents. Maybe QD Tv's will do for the Quantum dot stocks as Colorado did for marijuana stocks, or Tesla did for lithium stocks. Not too many people really hear about or pay attention to the other applications of Quantum Dots such as cancer research or solar panels perhaps, but everyone and their dog notices when a new technology comes out for something that they use every day. It almost seems like Oleds are going to be outdated before they even take off.
Personally, I think that with Apple, Samsung, LG or whoever else decides to start releasing TV's , cell phones, etc. with Quatum Dot displays, it will attract a lot of new investors to companies like Quantum Materials and Nanoco. Investors who otherwise wouldn't have Quantum Dots on their radar. The exposure alone to the new technology should have a positive effect on the share price. Wishful thinking anyways....
Well, if that happens, I'll be out shopping for a new Viper...lol
Let's hope eh?
1-2 years for which? Before the company uplists? Or before it's worth $20-$50 per share?
I know I've read that they want to uplist to either the Amex or Nasdaq next year, I just hope they get the contacts and the increase in share price before that happens.
I don't doubt that big things are going to happen within the next 6 months or so, I can see it hitting $2 fairly easily..above that, who knows.
It would be awesome indeed to see the price shoot up to $4 or better sometime next year based on contracts or joint ventures. I just hope it's before the uplisting.
Heck, I'd be overjoyed with $2 a share.
The potential is definitely there, this could easily be a $20, $50 or even higher stock in the next 5-10 years.
The only reason I'm asking about reverse splits is because I've been in that situation before...had a couple of penny stocks that were uplisted after a reverse split and they dropped like a rock.
I don't think that Qtmm would drop much after an uplisting, but unless they're already at $4 a share when the time comes, I don't see how else they could raise the share price without a reverse split.
If I have 100,000 shares and the SP is currently at $1, they're not just going to say "Hey, we're uplisting to the Nasdaq next month and your shares are now going to be worth $400,000.
Anyone have any thoughts on Qtmm uplisting to either the Nasdaq or Amex? Personally, I hope it doesn't happen for quite a while. I know it would attract more investors and a lot more eyes would be following it, just not too nuts about a reverse split.
If they were to announce tomorrow that they had a joint venture or a contract with LG or Samsung, no doubt the stock would jump by 500% or more. I don't see that happening if the stock is already at $10 or $15.
Just curious as to what everyone else's thoughts are.
I'm also wondering if share holders before a reverse split might possibly end up getting some warrants or some other incentive not to sell before an uplisting.
Great article, I wonder when exactly they plan on moving up to the NYSE or Nasdaq.
Glad I picked up some more shares yesterday, although I keep hoping it'll drop down below .20 again. Probably the only stock I own where I love seeing the price drop.
Glad I was able to add when I did, no reason this shouldn't be sitting between $1.50 and $2.00 this time next year once production gets rolling and contracts start getting signed.
Personally, I'm glad to see the big drop. Was going to add some more yesterday and didn't so I'm quite happy to scoop up more at less than .30 today.
I was hoping it would drop back down to .35 so I could scoop up some more....doesn't look like that's going to be a reality today. Not that I'm complaining.
