I don't know how new it is, but its definitely looks like they are OTC Pink and most certainly have the big stop sign.
Yet we have people talking about OEM contracts coming soon haha.
A predatory lender forced QTMM to get delisted? Is that the new reason their product can't sell?
You have literally been saying things like this since 2012.
Quote from share holder news letter..."we will be filing the 10k within the allotted grace period..."
Has the grace period passed?http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=135541068
A Lender screwing QMC. An OEM will solve..
I thought it was no big deal ? No reason to be concerned, right?
Noticed OTC Markets has QTMM as pink no current information with a stop sign...is this new? as of today?http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/QTMM/quote
Unless Jokers are wild!

I am curious about your Elliotwave (I have no idea what it is), but if it is some sort of analytics, I am not sure there are any analytics that pertain to a company that does not have any sales or revenue of any kind. This is pure unadulterated speculation.
Speculation on commodities is one thing, where there is long history and there is a real tangible value.
This is speculation based on no history and no known value. It is a completely new territory. that makes it exciting and the potential is only limited by our imagination. But it also makes it so unknown that any kind of analytical analysis does not apply. IMO.
I still think it is a feel play... a gut feeling, based on what we all perceive is the technology of the future and that QMC is our best bet to get in on the emerging tech. We could be correct and I hope we are, but the odds are against us. Everyone here should at least recognize that.
I spade is a spade until it is not. I just hope we are not all holding a deck full of jokers.
Hook'em!!!!
You are right that people seem to be getting excited. There is no news and Monday 780K shares trade and Tuesday 1.2M shares trade and the share price close is the same - .063. That seems to me to indicate we may be close to a bottom, with maybe tax end year selling, but not panic selling. Maybe its the start of building a base.
Volume picks up at stock turns, Volume increases interest. Does anyone know why QMC traded over 1.2M shares today on no news? It sure doesn't say 'wait till next year' to me.
One last technical point. Elliottwave theory is not for everyone, but I looked at a QMC chart starting in 2014 until present, and thought I could see a corrective 5-3-5 3-wave pattern, which means it could be getting close to the start of an upturn. I just dabble in it, so FWIW, just sayin'.
I wasn't saying they should announce a product, they should let us know that they will be there with something to show. no need to say what it is.
I just do not think anyone should be surprised if they have nothing to show and if that is they case, they should be less surprised when the share price gets cut in half the week following.
People are getting excited and ramped up for possibly and highly likely a huge disappointment.
The anticipation of big news is unwarranted especially in light of the current state of affairs with missed reports and cut and paste PR's.
(as someone else on the board referred to them).
We have a long way to go and it probably isn't happening in 2018. just say'n..
Hook'em!!
I never said they should divulge the OEM. I said they should give a PR that they will be there with something to show. Invite us all out to see it because it will be big.
But no, there will probably be nothing significant there.
and yes... you should know by now. I am the eternal pessimist when it comes to QTMM.
I will not be satisfied until it hits $5.00 a share.
I just don't believe it can happen to me.
So who is Sid? I assume a stock advisory newsletter author? Thanks.
Never satisfied. QMC cannot disclose an OEMs plans if they expect to continue doing business with that OEM. What would you say if QMC announced something and then the OEM changed its timetable? You would blame QMC for speaking prematurely.
Silence is a source of great strength. - Lao Tzu
Have you watch the qdot news releases the past few years?
New products are announced by OEMs, not qdot suppliers.
I have a feeling they don’t have anything and still do not know who with or what they will show at display week.
If they did have good tech to show, wouldn’t they want shareholders and people to come see what they had.
At the very least, have a PR telling everyone to come out and see. Obviously, QMC is not overly excited about what they have to offer.
My enthusiasm is being tempered with reality.
QTMM 2019!!!!
Last time they shared with Kisco correct? Is Kisco coming to CES this year?
Yes, and historically they have been right before or during the show.
An 8k to tell everyone they are attending a trade show? No
Steve should be more visible on twitter or other media to post this stuff.
I would think that would be material enough to demand an 8k? If the company is showing a product at CES that warrants excitement, than I would expect that to be 8k at the very least.
Anyone?
Thank you what’s the company’s name
Toshi Ando
He was very excited about what will be demonstrated in January 2018, it will be fantastic.
i looked at the program and directory
couldnt find qtmm
how did someone on this board found out that we are sharing a booth with another company?
AND looks like it never will! As we run past .10 WATCH!
This has never gone down to .001
If Stevie releases a cut and paste filing and or doesn’t file in the next 6 months it might as well go to .00000001.
Start of a new day!!!!
Any chance we can close in the green today?
Any chance we could be at .092 by the end of the year?
With no news, I think we will steadily go lower by .001 to .002 everyday until CES. if there is no good news by CES, might as well kiss it all goodbye.
Hey Express.... want to start an new QTMM rocket countdown?
January 9-12, 2018
Less than 30 days to go fellas!!!
Post of the week!!!!! Thanks! LOL!!!!
And it’s just Monday. Board has their work cut out for them to top that on!!!
Appears that you are right, I stand corrected. The link I saw had it listed as “Ken Fischer” as an individual vs Fischer Investments.
It would be safe to say that Ken Fisher did not even know. That it was a misque by a proprietary algorithm being sold when discovered. Mr. Clay Chase and I had that very conversation when it occured. Clay added that Mr Fisher when he see's what QMC becomes will return.
Regards
Sunny:>)))
"Fischer investments didn’t purchase anything. Ken Fischer bought personally a small position that he held for 3 months and sold."
The 40,000 QTMM shares that were reported last January as being held by institutional investors were held by Fisher Asset Management LLC (https://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?CIK=0000850529&action=getcompany).
Here is the Form 13F-HR from 1/10/17 and the 13F Information Table that listed the 40,000 QTMM shares held by Fisher Asset Management as of 12/31/16.
I'm pretty sure that that $60 billion fund is not Ken Fisher's personal holdings, but is where Fisher Investments puts their client's money.
Fisher Investments is a privately owned money management firm with over $89 billion assets under management*. Fisher Investments’ Private Client Group serves over 40,000 high net worth individuals from across the globe, and Fisher Investments’ Institutional Group manages assets for over 175 global companies, institutions and government entities.
Not what I was thinking. I was thinking he probably has been meeting with potential clients. QMA is still in it’s infancy. It’s just another avenue fur business development. We all should hope he’s traveling to Asia to meet with Dow, Nitto Denko, etc.
That’s what I was thinking as well. He was probably on a flight to QMA construction site to check on the progress Andy and GTG have been making in Asia.
Really, what do you do when your traveling and can't get out your computer and have no emails to respond or write?
I know I look through LinkedIn, Facebook, and news apps. Steve having time to look you over could very well been Steve waiting for a flight to Asia to do business.
Don't over emphasis the importance of Steve looking at your LinkedIn profile. It literally takes about 10 seconds to look over a profile. I do it all the time.
It can’t be we have the worlds best qdots.
Qma being built as we speak, steve pilgrimage in China will pay off.

Tic toc tic toc
Stevie what surprises do you have for your beloved shareholders?
Tic toc tic toc
I disagree and agree with your comment. We don't know the actions being taken by the company or the detailed reasons for the current state of affairs. Obviously Steve is not sitting by and letting them steam roll over him and that is in our best interests too. Until we have details it is any ones guess.
On the OTC or off the OTC doesn't matter. I agree with you that "no serious institution would touch the stock". You can collateralize most stocks at $5.00 (borrow against the position), and a lot of retail investors and portfolio managers that use leverage won't touch an otherwise good investment because of this. Once a stock crosses north of $5, new money tends to pour in. If they announce a contract you can bet there will be a lot of NON INSTITUTIONAL investors pouring into this investment under $5. With the players Steve is possibly aligning with i.e. DowDuPont you know an announcement of that magnitude would raise a lot of eyebrows, including the news medias. The question is, how high will your eyebrows go?
OK, so what if it was Ken Fischer himself? MY point was you were wrong to assume a billion dollar contract wouldn't attract a lot of buying - even if QTMM was on the OTC; there are billion dollar companies on the OTC.
For that matter, do you know why Ken Fischer bought and sold? You assume it had something to do with Sri leaving. Assuming that Sri wanted to issue preferred shares and sell-out the company, maybe that was just as well, but not evidence of 'solid progress'.
Steve addressed this in the shareholder letter. Things are now starting for the industry, Sri along with his staff are gone as of a year ago. Steve has shareholder interest in mind vs selling. Also QMC is worth for their Flow and Patents much more than the current shareprice considering QD Vision sold for 60M and rumor has it that Nanosys is worth a Billion.
Agreed, continued patience will pay off imo. Continuing to add at these levels.
Fischer investments didn’t purchase anything. Ken Fischer bought personally a small position that he held for 3 months and sold. He purchased when Sri was in charge and things were moving in the right direction with REAL employees and QD innovators on the team. He sold after Steve came back and just about every REAL employee departed. There’s no institutional money getting near this after all the issues this year.
https://www.gurufocus.com/stock/OTCPK:QTMM
This is when most smart money sold, after the random run up in February.
I mean when you really think about it, the only true, solidifiable progress happened before Sri, Carson, Lindberg, Stott, and Co. all departed. The only marketable product that even landed them the Uniglobe Kisco deal was created by people who are no longer there. All we get now is share holder letters, “1000-3000 hour milestones” and funny smelling deals like FF that end up falling through apparently. Still no news on if we saw the first $250,000 from them bc we now get no filings so we can’t even review financials......we were given a deadline of that filing to be done within the grace period and still silence from the company after we surpassed that date over a month ago.
If Steve has time to poke around on my LinkedIn page in the last few weeks then he should have time to address the concerned share holders with a simple update or Q and K filing.
So negative! With a billion dollar contract uplisting itself would be a slam dunk, and plenty would invest. Even things as they have been on the OTC, Fischer investment put some money into the stock - with a huge contract the floodgates would open.
Spark #5: Institutional Interest
You know a company has started to hit its stride when institutional investors start gobbling up outstanding shares. Mutual funds, hedge funds, exchange-traded funds, and pension funds… these are the guys that make the market – by deciding where the next hot sector will be.
Food for thought as to how many "Sparks" will we fit into?
Spark #1: Game-Changing New Contracts
A little company that secures a large, new contract with a key customer can see its stock really take off. The contract can come by way of a larger private-sector customer or a public sector contract with a government entity… at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter where the contract comes from. What does matter is the scale of the contract relative to the company’s existing sales.
Spark #2: Management Upgrade
Public companies must report changes in management – and that information is hugely valuable for investors. Sid makes it a point to see who has the chops to lead and succeed by digging up their resumes and studying how they fared in previous positions of power. He’s looking for stocks that may jump on the news of a management change – and if the management change can lead to a successful turnaround, that’s even better.
Spark #3: Disruptive Technology
Sid is always on the hunt for the latest viable technological, medical, or special niche product that has the ability to either change the world or support a macro trend that is changing the world.
Spark #4: Upward Revenue and Earnings Revisions
Revenue and earnings sparks are about more than just beating analyst expectations. Sid’s analysis has determined thatupwardly-revised guidance has a much bigger impact on a stock’s move. These upward revisions can come from Wall Street analysts, which is good. But upward revisions that come directly from the company itself can really light the fire under a company’s stock too.
Spark #5: Institutional Interest
You know a company has started to hit its stride when institutional investors start gobbling up outstanding shares. Mutual funds, hedge funds, exchange-traded funds, and pension funds… these are the guys that make the market – by deciding where the next hot sector will be. And once they “tip their hand,” it’s usually just a matter of time before the media breaks the news and regular investors pour in. Sid gets there first. He identifies the tell-tale signs of initial institutional interest through published data, well before others spot it.
Spark #6: Sector Rotation
Money is always in flux. It flows from one sector or asset class to the next. Sometimes these moves are quick and violent. Sometimes they can last for years. Sid’s suggestions may become more concentrated in one particular sector (like biotech and energy), but that just means Sid’s analytics have identified an existing opportunity or even an upcoming opportunity that is currently off the radar.
Spark #7: Returns
Until a stock starts to perform, it’s merely tying up capital in your account. That’s why Sid always looks for stocks that have already demonstrated favorable momentum. That momentum could be over a long period of time, where a stock continues to hit new highs – or it could be over a short time frame, when a stock demonstrates a breakout from a base. In both cases, we’ll be looking for increasing volume on the move. That lets us know we’re not alone – and it also gives us hints as to possible institutional interest. And as I said above, the party really gets started once institutions start piling in.
Multi-Catalyst Event
Well it looks like we still have time to accumulate, on the cheap, as #5 is at least a year away. However, we hit or will be under the umbrella in most of the points being made with the criteria for a stock to run. One other point I think should be noted with this technology that makes it stand out from most, except the drug industry, is the lack of investor choices to put their money in. The parallel to the drug stocks is when a new block buster drug comes out, that pharmaceutical company runs like crazy. I think we are set up for the same type of scenario. So hold onto your hats because when the ride starts it is going to be a crazy, insane ride!
Hope the Holiday Season brings some joy to all of you.
Bill
Nice article, hopefully QTMM can hang here there until QD's become more mainstream. Probably another year or 2 for it to catch on.

The QDX™ Platform combines the molecular power of quantum dots and the security of distributed ledger technology (blockchain) to address the $1.2 trillion global counterfeiting and product liability problem.? The QDX platform is a cost effective passive additive technology that dramatically enhances tracking and security utilizing smart device technology.? Multiple global companies have begun exploration of the technology and how it can be implemented into their product lines and supply chains. Sectors such as apparel, luxury brands, oil & gas, high security ink and paper, defense, environmental, cannabis and many more are looking for solutions such as the QDX platform with the desire to integrate across their supply chains. Stay tuned for more exciting news to come about the QDX platform in 2020.
2019 Was an exciting year for QMC! We achieved significant steps to monetization of our quantum dot technology. We hit many important milestones technologically and commercially. QMC made a key acquisition with the purchase of Capstan platform digital assets and key hires to support expansion and growth. Solar production demand is increasing dramatically as does demand for quantum dots in the display space all of which QMC is leveraging to produce revenues and position itself as the leader in high volume, high quality, environmentally friendly quantum materials and production technologies.
Another major development is the QDX platform and our integration of quantum dot production and DLT/blockchain. It has become clear that quantum dots have the potential to be used in many applications as markers to identify physical items in specific locations in time and space. Up until now there was no way to identify the dots uniquely or serialize the dots. The QDX platform for the first time in history bonds the physical and the digital in a tamper proof highly secure digital environment. For the first time dots will be “branded", registered and serialized as they are produced and associated with a cryptographic hash identifier in the blockchain.
In another industry first QDX Ledger incorporating the latest distributed ledger protocols including Hyperledger Sawtooth and DAML. We will be sharing more details as the development nears completion in the third quarter. In the meantime, we are seeking proof of concepts with a number of significant companies that see the benefits of being early adopters of industry use cases. This technology opens up a myriad of business use cases and opportunities to fight the global $1.2 trillion counterfeit and product liability problem we are all affected by. We are well positioned to be the first quantum dot enabled revenue producing use case in the global track and trace marketplace.
Display manufacturers continue to court us and our cadmium free quantum dot technologies. As mentioned in our 2019 highlights, the achievement of the industry first 100% cadmium free RoHS compliant, quantum dot LCD display film to exceed 95% Rec. 2020 color gamut created inquiries for testing with multiple display OEMs to potentially license our capabilities. As many of you may have seen this last holiday shopping season, QLED and quantum displays are now mainstream. The demand for environmentally friendly quantum dots is exponentially higher than 12 months ago as evidenced by this headline: "Samsung to invest $11bn in cutting-edge quantum dot displays" - Nikkei Asian Review Moving into 2020. QMC is well positioned to take advantage of this new mass adoption of quantum dot displays and is hard at work to validate its next generation technology to the display screen marketplace.
There seems to be much misinformation regarding the uptake of quantum dots in displays. The marketplace is very dynamic and is rapidly become commoditized. Other than Samsung all, other QD displays are using some cadmium. As the Chinese display manufactures have now embraced cadmium solutions inexpensive cadmium display films are entering the market at low prices. All other current solutions require a barrier film in order to pass the long-term stability testing. QMC recognized that in order to succeed in this marketplace we need to deliver a cadmium free product that is RoHS compliant, provides superior REC 2020 performance and meet the stability requirements at a price point competitive with the Chinese pure cadmium offerings. The only way to achieve this was to eliminate the need for the barrier film. QMC has just completed the stability testing of this product and anticipate introducing it to the market during 2020. In parallel to this effort we remain active in our effort to license our display technologies to one or more significant display industry companies.
Solar demand and opportunities continue to grow. Though the Assam India solar project, our licensee had delays due to weather and is now moving forward and back on track and projections for our licensees’ quantum dot production have increased which is welcome news. We have also identified additional regions in India and the Middle East who desire to license our technologies in the same way. We are working to upgrade micro reactor equipment to be more secure, handle greater demand and work more efficiently and with less maintenance.
We know many of you have questions about the company’s filing status. We have been working with our auditors and counsel to complete our disclosures, particularly in regard to equities. The company has a number of complex transactions and we are making an extra effort to detail these in our disclosures.
Our Assam licensees have assured us that they are working diligently to make up for time lost due to the recent historical flooding that the Assam region experienced. We have been informed that the site work is nearing completion and that some construction is being conducted offsite as prefabricated components. Our licensee has already made significant payments and additional payments are due to us once the reactors are setup and tested. This will allow us to recognize revenue once these benchmarks are met. We will also be delivering pre and post processing equipment this year.
We have continued to maintain aggressive cost control measures, never forgetting this is a marathon and not a sprint. We believe we will be able to duplicate our Assam license model in other regions and we are working diligently to monetize our quantum dot solar technology and display material technologies via licensing.
Our Assam India licensee has reported that now that the flood waters have subsided, site work is being completed and as much construction as feasible is being prefabricated off site. They have expressed their dedication to making every effort to make up for time lost due to mother nature wrath.
We believe our QDX Ledger Platform can help solve the worldwide counterfeit products problem. We also believe this will create significant value for QMC as a foundation for numerous recurring revenue income streams. We are continuing to focus more resources on R&D and with our continuous flow technology we have been able to leverage every dollar spent. To further streamline our operations we have continued to analyze our operating costs and make reductions whenever and wherever possible.
2020 looks to be another exciting year as we build and grow on our successes of 2019. The whole team is grateful for your continued support. The future is bright!

October 2018 Quantum Materials Corp Receives Innovator of the Year Award from YTEXAS
"We're so far ahead of everybody in the space." - Stephen Squires in CEO Y-Texas interview
QMC sues K&L law firm for $100 million for malpractice
“This is an important milestone in consolidating and protecting our intellectual property for large scale volume synthesis of non-cadmium quantum dots,” Quantum Materials founder and CEO Stephen Squires stated. “Continuous synthesis micro-reaction technology is the solution for synthesis of high-quality nanoparticles due to the many advantages our patented process provides, including precise temperature control, mixing efficiencies, fast reaction speed and parallel operation for scalable volume production.
Quantum dots refer to one of several promising materials niche sectors that recently have emerged from the burgeoning growth area of nanotechnology. Quantum dots fall into the category of nanocrystals, which also includes quantum rods and nanowires. As a materials subset, quantum dots are characterized by particles fabricated to the smallest of dimensions from only a few atoms and upwards. At these tiny dimensions, they behave according to the rules of quantum physics, which describe the behavior of atoms and sub atomic particles, in contrast to classical physics that describes the behavior of bulk materials, or in other words, objects consisting of many atoms.
Quantum Dots measure near one billionth of an inch and are a non-traditional type of semiconductor. They can be used as an enabling material across many industries and are unparalleled in versatility and flexible in form.
These highly efficient tetrapod QD are available across the entire light wavelength from UV to IR spectra and very narrow bandwidth is common. Selectivity of arm width and length is very high allowing different characteristics to be emphasized. Capping with shells and dyes adds desired properties. A custom mixture of quantum dots tuned to optimal wavelengths is easy to create, and projects will have the advantage of unprecedented flexibility and quantities for determining the optimal quantum dot without the time, expense and poor quality of batch synthesis methods.
