Not likely at all ....
Most people do ... it is simply the only thing left to hold on to with this company. All expectations have to be retired until the reason why Li continures to own stock is uncovered.
Problem = Li may never reveal his plans and expectations for the LF mystery. Until/if Li takes action we will continure to swirl in the black hole waiting for our doom or our wealth to surface.
I have quit HOPING for either because there are no other options.
You know, it is so bad that the recent 10Q came and went and I barely gave it a thought ... no FOMO, negative/ positive emotion or reaction of any type.
Perhaps this is what Li and Chung have in mind, or, this is what it looks like .... an old picture in the basement of a long lost relative ? Fading away slowly, awating the day when nobody will be around to identify who he/she was .... to what extent it is at all relevent is a mystery.
I'm beginning to believe and accept that their plans ( they must have plans, right ?) are foreign, even to them ... as a result, HOPE and FEAR and ANTICIPATION no longer exist in the world of LQMT. I have a few thousand dollars wasting away in LQMT and even in the face of all the above, I'm loath to sell.
Are we all insane, visionaries or simply lazy ?
I do believe that is the mystery surrounding the company ,,, Maybe deceiving in plain sight is their business plan. If that is the case "to what end" a rational person may ask ? it is at that point where my head gpes off the rails.
Could they and Li truely be in business in order to sell nothing and to profit nothing ?
What sense does that make ?????
I commend you for keeping the light lit in the window in the face of this crazy/insane company ... I'm repeating mysef and many others, but I think the mystery surrounding the oddity of LQMT continued existance is just as alluring as the HOPE and FOMO associated. How else can one explain the tolerence of investors who refuse to sell their shares in the face of such incompetence ????
Just what the hell does Li expect from the LF crowd of "do and produce nothings" ? If they busy themselves by simply writing SEC documents delaring that nothing positive is happening under their umbrella, could that somehow be at LI's orders to them ??? If Li is content with their malaise what is his motivation.
I will never concede that something is "brewing" while the stock value and the trading volume resembles a company on the verge of collapse. No need for you or anyone else for that matter to again speculate on what is going on ... I just wish the motivation for their behavior would be revealed before I kick the bucket. I am now well South of Watts' promised age of 75 and it would be a shame if I went a la Gorgol, not knowing a damm thing.
It is a total mystery and more totally insane that this company has not (and seemingly cannot) sign a contract with a company that can use this "transformative material" to make some sort of sale
That is pretty good ! Perhaps your best ...
Reminds me of the shell game, Three Card Monty, I grew up with on the streets of Brooklyn and Manhattan. Watch closely folks. See the prototypes? See the OH? See the huge investments from Apple and China? See all the cash? See the power grid upgrades, See the high volume parts machines? See the wait time from prototypes to finish reduced? Now under which card are the contracts under??????? Which card hides the whales????
Or do you only still see the potential, the expectations, the hype and the promise? THE FOMO?
Every year the same game is played and every year with the same outcome. Perhaps one year, one day the shareholders will have guessed correctly.
LQMT has become in essence the longest FOMO investment I have ever known. LQMT has cash, real IP, real trademarks and a huge investment from China, which was used to obtain both and another huge investment from Apple. Other than that, LQMT has only minuscule contracts from time to time and a lot of executive commentary to stir the pot of outsider’s interest and the share price.
Until then, can we at least have another real contract of any size. please. Aren’t we due for another wash rinse and repeat cycle? Or could the next one be the big one?
TC is living up to his MO .. I suspect that his ability to do so was the reason he was hired in the first place.
Why the hell has Li invested so much of his cash and (time?) in this company ????
In Tony's garage by one of his relatives ?
Hmmm ... 24 reviews. Cost of $100 per set = $2,400 revenue = Lunch and a round of golf at the club for TC and Li.
Not much to crow about ( not that anyone is crowing ).
God, I don't think these people are ever going to get off their asses and sell something. I've convinced myself that they are paid to write templated reports every so often revealing the truth of the matter = Nobody wants to buy anything from them !
A big YEP to that dose of wisdom that many will not ever accept until it is too late ( me included I'm afraid)
No they do not ... pissed them away a while ago amongst all the other nonesense. Low hanging fruit, In the midst, MSR's, electrical upgrades, March 22nd expectations and the like.
Their capacity (and ours) for providing (and enduring) all the BS is the only admirable thing about this whole episode in craziness.
Hopefully this exercise in futility is being chronicaled and will be issued in the future to warn off "get rich quick" people from from scams that look to be too good to be true,
Well, If I can concede one point to these guys they have pulled at least 2 rabbits out of the hat that I know of .... ( Apple in 2010 and Li in 2016 ). If one believes in date numerology they are due for their next trick this year.
If they keep on as is ... it would give them approximately 3 years or so before the roof caves in ...... I've surprised myself with my patience ( note to Prof Li ) and my ability not to divest myself of this dog ... as with all of you I HOPE ( but do not expect ) my foritiude is made profitable soon as I am indeed in my 76th year and time is a running out.
Thanks to Researchfyi for keeping it all real for so long.
Agreed ... either Li and Chung are working at only one thing or they are giving a hell of a performance at allowing LQMT USA to slide slowly under water into oblivion.
I'd sure like to believe that they have sometihng else in mind ... but, if they do, they are hiding their intentions very well.
Why do it in such a slow methodical way is well above my pay grade but I'd love to know before I kick the bucket. Maybe it is just to prove how gullible and starry eyed a few optomists are out there waiting to strike it rich. Or maybe Li had to pay off some silly bet.
Well, it seems they have several "partners" with whom they can bring on board to manufacture whatever "products" their hard working "MSR's" contract with .... I'll offer it again .... What the hell do these people in LF do besides collect cash to write reports indicating that nobody in the world wants to use their product to make anything
They are jokes, LQMT is a joke, TC is a joke and LI is the biggest joke of all ... they all will remain as such until they reveal what they have done and what they plan to do to make this a successful business enterprise in the USA.

ENGEL Liquidmetal®
n Engel machine that's been modified to handle the higher temperatures required for metal forming is gaining traction. Now in its third generation, the modified Engel machine is the result of a partnership between Liquidmetal Technologies and the plastics processing machinery maker.
Those familiar with the process say that plastics press operators have the knowledge base to take on metals.

"The control technology is the same," said Paul Hauck, executive VP for Liquidmetal Technologies. "If you are a polymer processor and know how to run the e-motion machine, you can walk up and successfully produce a liquid metal part."

As is the case during golf season I lose touch in all things to include LQMT. Can someone help me out with the following ?:
1) Is there cash on hand now down to $18M ?
2) How much do they have left in their investments ?
3) When will Li, Tony, et.al. spout off their BS in the next Quartely report ?
4) Why do I still have money I could use elsewhere tied up in this ongoing disappointment ?
Thanks !
Gotta tell ya ... I'm a youngen' at age 75 but been around long enough to be very, very negative on the March 22nd hype. To me TC and the California/China crew made misleading comments and if not illegal they certainly crossed a line of sorts.
I too have been here since the 2010 explosion and the non performance/implied performance by the past and present management team is appaling by any standards ... they have acted like NYC street hustlers rather than dignified business people. They all should be ashamed with the manner that they have behaved.
So, we are in the midst of waiting for the second quarter reports huh ? Appears to me that (even on this board) interest in the company/stock could not be lower than it is today. I'd bet that many have given up and sold their entire positions.
Who can blame them ? News always (100% of the time) is bogus, the company itself seems to be frozen and any offical intentions are glaringly absent. Why would any but a blind optomist or pessimist hold this stock ?
We are a few of people who practie insanity ... doing the same thing but expecting a different result. Without the serious intervention of LQMT management this is due to go under very soon.
Oh, so does that mean that another supposed revenue stream coming into our compay by way of the "Maze" is no longer viable ?
No matter, on to the next fairy tale ....
Looks like a lot of stops were activated ?
I'd guess the LQMT employees are immune to negative comments ... I say negative becasue there are no deserved positive one of any consequence.
People stil touting a sucessful company called Liquidmetal emerging in the USA are delusional.
Glad you brought up that "Huge Investment" of $64 by Li about 6 years ago. It is certainly is an action that has provided HOPE to many of our fellow investors but has clearly not been a path to anything other than HOPE.
I know I'm not the only one who has harbored initial dissapointmen andt later skeptism of this supposed catalyst that went POOF rather than BANG. In the end this is but one of the mysteries that surround LQMT. Why wouild a supposed honorable person like Li and his many highly touted respected predecessors not offer an explaination to people who have poured their hard earned money into their folly ?
We will probably never know what the real story behind this apparent scam but I sure as hell hope for one other thing ... If it truly is/was a planned extraction of money from we "little guys" I hope those who have perpetuated the hoax pay dearly in the end.
Perfect
Perfect
I think they are locked in a building with Paul Hauck and the MSR's he trained to do ?????
sounds like a theroy that might explain things I guess.
It will be a cruel irony if we never find out why LI stopped off in 2016 with $64M and never revealed why he did what he did.
That is very likely true but HOPE stands there tall and proud ... we all want to believe that we have hit tht stock market lottery.
Just like on TV we are the central characters in the plot and will end up rich beyond our wildest dreams.
The lure is irresistible to all we middlings.
Good advice ...
Keep thinkg that way and BK will arrive soon to end the misery.
It has become the way of the world ... I'm still waiting for a GE stove I ordered over a year ago ... nobody has any answers or knows anything about why it has taken so long.
Not even money talks any more.
A big new house, a new car or a new wife ?
Maybe all three.
I know it is not desiged to make another investment in LQMT-USA !
Yeah, retirement ...
Operative term = rumors
I guess it is also good to see that Li is being relieved of his wealth by the CCP forcing him to sell his investments in his revenue producing entities.
I have never in all my years here recalled any feedback from the company with regard to their "trade show" appearances. God only knows why they bother with such things.
Well, that is an interesting point and one that deserves some thought ...
Since LQMT is only in the business of selling HOPE and STOCKS it is certainly possible that once the FOMO crowd is thinned out they will do something similar to what you express.
A 100 to 1 revesrse split gets them into NASDAQ land where they can continue to BS there way into other FOMO's hearts. These people have striped all the innovators and inventors of all their valuables, are now in the process of eating away at all of the small investors cash and have to move on in some manner to survive.
What's more they are very good at what they do .... they find sources of cash to fund their efforts of eating away at the fabric of the company while producing NOTHING. Not bad work if you can get it and live with yourself afterward I'd say.
There is an old saying that goes "you dance with who brung you" if you know what I mean ...
Curb your expectations ! .... LQMT is like a number of politicians I knew (know). If they acknowledge you that is enough .... asking them to produce something or work at the same is way over the top !
I hear you back ... as each day goes by I grow more impatient while at the same time my FOMO grows exponentially.
I think it is called a Hobson's Choice !
