As Gorgol has pointed out, The more the Share Price of LQMT goes up. the Harder it is to deal with the price drops along the way.
So you sold all LQMT holdings. I thought you already cashed-out when LQMT was under 25 cents.
Or do you mean you sold Short 1 million shares of LQMT ?
Can you clarify.
Good points, the share price is up %400 based on just 'water'
Imagine what the price will be once its based on 'guzoline'
Half of those 800m shares are held tight by LQMT HK on behalf of Eontec.
Li has options for about 10m.
So with about a 400m float, your right...."If any news breaks soon we will move and move up very fast."
Over 8 million in trades and the price stays the same, twice now that happens.
Someone is offloading into the rally trying not to beat down the price.
IMHO.
Have to wonder if those warrants have been excised and are being sold into this rally.
No the market cap does not show Cash holdings, its just Share price multiplied by the outstanding shares.
I have no idea, LQMT has more cash now thanks to Prof. Li, but LQMT has also accumulated loses since 2010. Then theres the value of CIP. Its tricky.
I think LQMT's share count was 40 million, so that wold give a market cap of $20 million, market cap today is over $250 million.
i think thats the real comparison we where after.
If you know the market cap or the outstanding share count of LQMT, then we can do a direct comparison with todays share price.
Nothing to do with 'unicorns' as you claim, just proper Due Diligence for a real Price comparison.
Only asking since you claim to be the only one who can.
Hurry up and get well, you need your good looks when driving in that Bright Orange Lambo.
Damn we have a well connected CEO. Party Secretary and Vice mayor.
I recall Steipp saying that this cross license agreement will also protect CIP rights in China,
Apple must know how well connected and respected Prof. Li is, this will also protect Apples CE rights in China, IF they contract him for the manufacturing.
I like how Li is a casual guy, wears jeans in a high level meeting, walks around with a sling bag, he is not a conformist, reminds me of Jobs.
I thought the prediction was for 16cents
If we are talking about a bunch of out-dated and obsolete information where the source of this publication is really out of the loop, then this LQMT Article will be both entertaining and enlightening.
Enjoy. Guess who the 'Expert' source is.

Wasn't it amazing that payment of both tranches by Li where announced at the very same hour that Apple was holding its product launch event.
The lqmt traders who cash-out leading into the Apple hype rally, to buy back latter after the price drops, got caught with their pants down.
That was an outstanding tactic to remove the traders. Well played.
Also Prof. Li might receive a question from Chinese investors at a lqmt CC, and if that question references Li's previous statements about a fruit company, even if Li does not answer the question, that question itself will be enough to piss Apple off.
And Apple fines its suppliers $50 million for EACH leak.
http://www.geek.com/apple/apple-leaks-come-with-a-50-million-fine-1606653/
https://www.engadget.com/2014/10/13/apple-leak-fine-50-mil/
http://www.cultofmac.com/299447/apple-slaps-suppliers-50m-fine-leaking-secrets/
One wrong question that refers to Li's previous comments in China will be enough.
No surprise those 2 articles where taken down from Eontec's website once they where exposed here.
Insider !! Yeah Tony's open market purchases speaks volumes about LQMT's future.
As a lqmt investor, Johnson's recognition and praise of Li's BMG manufacturing breakthrough makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
I'm glade you have articulated all those Crucial Facts in one Single Post, i can't agree more.
Apple had a PR disaster after the GTAT debacle, once bitten twice shy. This time Apple needed proof that BMG can be mass manufactured before taking another chance at U.S. based manufactures.
This post from Joshuaeyu

So Professor William L. Johnson, the cofounder of LiquidMetal and owner of Glassimetal, thinks that what Prof. Li has accomplished is a "remarkable achievement" which he previously thought was "impossible"
Prof. Johnson must be unicorn
Good article,
You will see more frustration from the LQMT Traders this year.
Lugeelobotomized. An Instant Classic !
I don't think its Foxconn, they are already part of the Softbank $100 billion investment into U.S. manufacturing. They don't need the funds.
BUT who's to say Foxconn wont also Contribute some of that $100 Billion into Cook's plan?
Foxconn is already a customer of Eontec in China, soon to be a customer of LQMT in America ??
Well said DPP, its so obvious that Apple the key player in the Eontec/LQMT cross license deal.
Is that the same LQMT Crucible that Prof. Li has already received approval from Apple to use its IP ?
I don't know what the LQMT share price would be, but i know that Wall Street would value the Company LQMT in the 10's of Billions if Cook announces LQMT as the tech company they will partner with.
Good link, Apple doesn't always Acquire companies, they didn't Acquire GTAT, they just invested $1 billion to help GTAT fill up a facility with their Sapphire furnaces.
Other examples, Apple hasn't bought a Panel display manufactures or OEM assemblers, but it does invest in panel technology and assembly line machinery.
Same will happen with LQMT, Apple does not need to buy them, Apple will invest in LQMT to it fill Lake Forest with BMG machines, no doubt because orders from Apple are a done deal, Already proven on identical machines at Eontec.
From the link, those massive numbers are now outdated. During the interview with Cramer, Cook said the $1 billion investment in Advanced Manufacturing was raised through Bond issue, i believe the resent Apple bond issue was $7 Billion.
Very true, there has been no new news and the price keeps rising, breaking the 25 cent barrier along the way. Somebody know something not yet made public.
Green is Good, Consolidation above 28 is also Good. Can't expect better without any news.
Well some lqmt traders have to try and buy back shares sold at 17-18 cents last October,
and the rest of the shares sold at 24-25 cents a few weeks back in anticipation of the 'rinse'
25 cent barriers don't last forever, Funny how the charts didn't predict that.
I think Cook will publicly show that he is investing in the American company LQMT, but privately he is only investing in lqmt because its now backed and managed by Eontec/Li.
LQMT spent 2 weeks consolidating at 26 after breaking through the 25 cent barrier.
Then Monday/Tuesday at 27, Spike volume on Wednesday at 28, Slowing volume on Thursday at 29.
Void of any news lqmt will consolidate at 28.
This little rally might be running out of steam for now.
IMHO.
He has 405 million reasons to "transfer orders to the domestic"
Also if lqmt is one of the recipients of Apple's $1 billion investment, it will be for U.S. based manufacturing of Apple parts, that will be on-top of what Li transfers to lqmt.
Win-Win.
Gtat had no manufacturing experience, a very corrupt CEO and they where just furnace sellers.
BUT Prof Li does have manufacturing experience, he founded Eontec, he made his own BMG machines, he had Dr. Atakan Peker formulate BMG thats 10x cheaper, he is not a scam having invested more than $60million of his own money into lqmt, and he already has these customers.
I don't think Apple can find anyone better than Li/LQMT to invest in when it comes to BMG manufacturing, it keeps CIP IP in-house away from competitors.
Divesting its suppliers is always one of Apple's primary objectives.
Bingo !! That old 'Wash Rinse Repeat' mantra has left the lqmt traders sitting on the platform watching the lqmt train pulling further and further away. Its going to be a Long Hot Dry Lifetime for those who cashed out under 25 cents.
Karma has teeth.
Apple likes to diversify their suppliers so i don't think Apple will want to help Foxconn or any other excising supplier get any bigger and more powerful. That leaves Prof. Li as the best candidate and keeps CIP IP away from any competition.
