Selling 1000 at $1.00
Didn't someone say he was adding and was up to about 6.8million
Excellent!
Excellent!

Yes, I got the same impression, like it was targeted to all the positive posters on this board. Basically, saying your time is now.
Good post. Thank you.
The ear buds look like Liquidmetal as well. Hard to be sure of any material without words to back it up, but Liquidmetal has a look to it, at least to me. Let's hope.
Yes, exactly. Well said and honest, especially the hoax of "trickledown". Thank you
Yes, I agree. That's the bottom line. Well said in a nutshell. Thank you.
Wow. Sure sounds good in translation. Geely?
I agree completely.
Another thought for those who find themselves in this situation; you can convert LQMT stock in an IRA to a Roth IRA, called a backdoor conversion. You don't have to be working to create your Roth IRA and do this backdoor conversion. You'd pay taxes on the value of the stock that you transfer, but you would get the advantages of the ROTH when LQMT appreciates, and of course to our heirs since the ROTH accrues to them as well. Just a thought for people who find themselves in my situation with LQMT.
Just for edification, the IRS has eliminated the required distribution in IRAs for 2020. So far only one year. And of course you can always not take out the RDA, but you'd pay 50% taxes on that amount. My LQMT is in an IRA, and sometimes it makes sense to just pay the taxes.
Nonsense.
Ditto...keeps me in, not selling, and patiently(AlmostThere) waiting.
Material is revolutionary. Check.
Thank you for your response.
Thank you for your sacrifice. Like when you buy the snowblower and no more snow. You know its got to go up now that you've sold.
Well said. Thank you.
Would this be the rivet business someone posted weeks ago?
Seems good, but who can tell? Does anyone feel they have an understanding of this post?
My broker says May 12-18.

Doesn't what DGYT (Dongguan Yian Technology) is doing in China with these manufacturing subsidiaries or manufacturing investments, exactly what LQMT USA just did with it's new alliance? Liquidmetal Technologies and Eutectix Enter into Manufacturing Partnership.
WHY shouldn't this be our future with the money we have left? It would seem like a Win/Win for LQMT USA and any manufacturer entering into an agreement with us. How many metal manufacturers are in the US and eager to open new lines of business and technology...and to bring manufacturing back to the US to boot?

To me, this excerpt from the DGYT agreement in China to their new manufacturing partner says it all...this is our future LQMT USA!!!!! My only concern would be that we'll be purchasing equipment from our Chinese partner DGYT, and Ponzi Scheme came to mind, but I'm not that familiar with the basis for Ponzi schemes...maybe this wouldn't apply or we needn't worry for many, many years of profiting.
"(2) On the one hand, this related party transaction increased the liquid metal equipment production capacity of the joint-stock company Ningde Sanxiang Liquid Metal Technology Co., Ltd., and gradually introduced liquid metal technology and mass-produced liquid metal products. The increasing demand for the development scale of the metal industry extends the company's liquid metal industry chain, promotes the development of the liquid metal industry, and enhances the company's overall competitiveness, in line with the company's development strategy. The related party transaction was conducted on the basis of fairness, reasonableness, and consensus between the two parties, without harming the interests of the company and other shareholders, especially small and medium shareholders.

Yes, this was the point of my post a week or two ago, highlighting #2 reason. An American Maze. Perfect.
Thank you.
Anyone know of a Lenovo presentation or product introduction today at noon? Is their Edge 5G already out? I had a note on my calendar that Lenovo was presenting today some new product that had been suggested might contain Liquidmetal. Thank you.
Quote from doublet83:
Can citizens of the People's Republic of China directly invest in US stocks? Guy at interactive brokers says he's 100% sure that they can. However, I've heard conflicting information about this.
The problem isn't if the person is a citizen of the PRC (PEOPLE'S REPUBLIC OF CHINA). The US certainly doesn't care. And the PRC doesn't care whether you have overseas assets.
The difficulty would be getting RMB(CHINESE CURRENCY) assets out of mainland China. Converting RMB assets into any other currency, technically, requires approval. For small amounts, you can tell the bank just about any reason, and no one will take a second look. If you're wiring millions of RMB out of China into a foreign account, you may be required to show documentation verifying the reason why. And if it's for foreign investment, SAFE approval may be required:

(And later repatriating foreign assets back into China might also be difficult for similar reasons.)
From what I see, this information may have come from what auto manufacturers were doing early on through 2006, maybe up until 2009. Hypereutectic and the name Eutectix??? Ford and Eutectix???
Hypereutectic piston
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigationJump to search
A hypereutectic piston is an internal combustion engine piston cast using a hypereutectic alloy–that is, a metallic alloy which has a composition beyond the eutectic point. Hypereutectic pistons are made of an aluminum alloy which has much more silicon present than is soluble in aluminum at the operating temperature. Hypereutectic aluminum has a lower coefficient of thermal expansion, which allows engine designers to specify much tighter tolerances.
The most common material used for automotive pistons is aluminum due to its light weight, low cost, and acceptable strength. Although other elements may be present in smaller amounts, the alloying element of concern in aluminum for pistons is silicon. The point at which silicon is fully and exactly soluble in aluminum at operating temperatures is around 12%. Either more or less silicon than this will result in two separate phases in the solidified crystal structure of the metal. This is very common. When significantly more silicon is added to the aluminum than 12%, the properties of the aluminum change in a way that is useful for the purposes of pistons for combustion engines. However, at a blend of 25% silicon, there is a significant reduction of strength in the metal, so hypereutectic pistons commonly use a level of silicon between 16% and 19%. Special moulds, casting, and cooling techniques are required to obtain uniformly dispersed silicon particles throughout the piston material.
Hypereutectic pistons are stronger than more common cast aluminum pistons and used in many high performance applications. They are not as strong as forged pistons, but are much lower cost due to being cast.
Exactly, Pay

Eagle47, if you see an advantage to what you're trying to push, then by all means, go right ahead. Let's hope all the speculative happy talk doesn't get in the way of your conversations you envision. I'll look forward to reading the discussion, the edification if you will.
You're funny Eagle47, you can't help yourself. You give us information, good, about what the market looks like currently, and then, bad, add your little negativity. Just sell or stop typing after your initial fact. Leave the interpretation to the reader.
Thank you for what you do, PayMEmf. It's always a pleasure to see what new things you've uncovered. Thank you again for doing what we all should do, and then taking the time to tell us all.
No, I understand. We could all use some information on a regular basis. It seems natural to get some, unless something is amiss. That is what is worrisome, and we all know that. Covid-19 updates are at least something.
Smiling. Thanks, Pay! Now that's what I'm talking about. LOL!
So many people here painting a bleak picture for Liquidmetal Technologies USA. If there's that sentiment, one would start to wonder why someone has any shares, firstly, and secondly, why they'd worry about me and my pie-in-the-sky, optimistic view of the company and continue to tell me divest, Rick, divest. Please, just go away all you naysayers. Your negative words and obvious attitude are not helpful and one would start to question your motivation. I know that's just my pie-in-sky optimism showing again, but honestly, why does our board support people that are just trying to "help" us by suggesting we get rid of our shares? I love to read posts every day, but those of you that aren't really helpful, except to warn us of our folly, please just go away. Maybe the moderators of this board need to do their job for the rest of us. Maybe someone create a board labelled The Folly of LQMT just for them. I mean negative stuff should be allowed here, but make it a factual occurrence to warn us. Maybe moderators can start banning those that post negative things with no facts...honestly, who needs them?
