I give a Liquidmetal MBA a likelihood of 10%. I give a Liquidmetal iPad a likelihood of 15%. FWIW I give a Fall 2022 Liquidmetal iPhone a likelihood of 15%. I give a Fall 2022 Liquidmetal Apple Watch a likelihood of 50%.

I certaainly do not want to disrespect you or your predictions but I've been telling myself crap like this for over 10 years now thinking that the pot of golf is right around the corner. It is why I am a feeble bag holder of too many shares of this failed company. As such I continuously fail to sell shares when the "getting is good".
This has all evolved into a place where getting out is not even worth the bother. $.08 - $.10 cents a share is not profitable to anyone here or out there unless they did not pay for their pieces of nothingness.
The time and money lost in that endeavor is frightfully only the tip of the iceberg of their litiney of other ventures that had the same consequences.
And doing a hell of a job at that !!!!
Want proof ? .. we are now firmly ensconced in the $.08's
Time to buy !!! Get all you can because we are almost there .. only 20 years or so left unless LQMT goes under in the next 5 ...
Message to all ... go back on this message board for at least 5 years to verify what you are feeling today ... if you want a real eye opener, go back to the day when Apple took it's bite ....
If LQMT was not a scam in the beginning it is now ..... too many false starts and failed strategies will have that effect on anyone or anything.
From today’s perspective I look back at Li’s departure and I think he was maybe burned out. After five years: no income to speak of, no contracts to speak of, a metric ton of dead ends. Perhaps he was talking to his old friend Tony or perhaps Tony called him and said, "Give me a chance. I’ll work my ass off. If there’s a contract to be found, let me try and get it." And Li said, “I got nothing. Be my guest."
So which is it? Did Li step away because Liquidmetal success is a fait accompli? Or because it’s a shit show and he was tired of banging his head against a wall? Only time will tell, but 9 months in it looks like Tony’s wheels are spinning. That’s not at all what I expected when he came on the scene.

Yeah, I feel your pain and have been in the midst of it for approximately 10 years now. It is not a good feeling and incites a number of negaitve theories that remain unknown with the exception of what is truely known. The share price is in shambles and the company is excels in practicing it's abiliy to sell nothing,
Either Li is using LQMT for some kind of weird scheme or he has been had like all the rest of us. TC is clearly a loser who cannot connect with the right entity to bring our "transformative technology" to market while others are making excessive profits right in his face.
In the first few minutes of todays session we are nearly into the $.07's and bleeding cash profusely. I believe the FOMO is still strong in many of us and it is there where LQMT has indeed succeeded over the years. I'd guess it will remain that way until the pigs at the trough have emptied it for good.
I find the chronical of this failure of more benefit than reading the misleading DD's that do not POOR (provide opportunity or revenue).
That is a straight on absolutely correct statement and I'd suspect represents the situation for 99% of the shareholders ... Li included ? maybe ?
Li has motives and they are at the root of the BIG MYSTERY. Mind you, the answer to the mystery is not guarenteed to make money for all us FOMOer's
My holding on to LQMT shares for so long boarders on insanity.
Ha ha ha, I just wrote a simiar post to address the issue and should have not wasted my time ... you did it better.
LQMT clearly has no stratefy and no energy to create one.
They mystery remains however, why have people played with them in continuous follies ? Why is this pathetic performance been rewarded with conintued life ?
The only answer I can come up with is that nobody of consequence really cares anymore. The smart ones have sucked whatever benefits were available from our witless leaders who run the "company" and this transformative material will be manufactuered and sold by entities who work bringing the material to market.
In the meantime the vultures are cleaning up the roadkill. TC, LI and the rest of them are content to feed on whatever meat is left on the bone. This is all at the care of we bag holders content to live on HOPE and fantasy which will never be rewarded.
If the news is redundant it is becasue the company is stagnent .... thew question to be explored is WHY LQMT cannot seem to land a customer.
The next and most important question is why they continue to be satisfied with their performance over such a long period of time.
There have been theories galore over the prior 10-11 years with none of them amounting to anything. WHY ?
Yes, we can choose to look forward and ignore the past .... however many battles and widows have been made over people who unaccept reality. LQMT needs a miracle to happen and that is not likely to happen even after Apple and LI threw them a lifeline.
Nothing more than a lottery ticket at this time.
Unfortunately, I never got an answer to that question or any of the other mysteries that surround this conundrum of a company.
Is that the equivalent of a scam ?
It went into that little known black hole known as the "death of all LQMT hopes and dreams" .. a place frequented by a few whose savings have been dimished by substantial losses in persuit of mind blowing wealth.
These folks also gamble incessently on long shots that are of the nature of 1 in 100 million if you know what I mean.
And this relates to LQMT how ?
at this stage in LQMT development.
__________________________________________________-
The stage of development of LQMT is located in deaths waiting room hoping to be reborn .... not a good strategy for success.
Gorgol had it correct when he sold at $.30c.
I guess one could conclude that the pathetic history and lack of performance of a company is no assurance that it will continue down such a path in the future.
Unfortunately in order to buy into such a conclusion requires one needs to embrace a series of theories that have failed in a likewise manner.
There are very few who have succeeded in securing wealth while practicing a strategy of this nature.
I'll say it once again, LQMT has a strategy of some sort that is so obscure as to boarder on mystery .... why they behave in such a manner fosters the HOPE and interest of a few who believe that the world is flat and other such absurb notions.
How dare you speak of facts, truths and the events that are proven to be real !
Once again, well thought out and written .... along with a few others who have since stopped posting you have documented the LQMT saga in a most through manner to date. Not much more can be written until the mysteries are revealed ... we all know what they are but nobody is talking.
Maybe we can interest 60 Minutes to touch base with the principals ... Kang, Steipp, Li, Chung and all the rest .... what the heck has been going on with this company ?Why is it not dead in the water ? , Why are they not selling their shares before the collapse ? What was the Apple deal all about ? , etc. etc.
I do not know if we are entitled to know or understand the numerous issues or if it is just as simple as everyone involved are either dumb or incompetent, all of us shareholders alike. I'm repeating myself but this all is so intriguing and one of the reasons we outsiders hold our shares and do not sell.
Drives me nuts !
I wish I had the time and tenacity to go back and find the posts that promised that LQMT would come to fruition during the first quarter of 2022.
Tony predicted that the $.30c LQMT stock in 2015 would be profitable in 2017.
And now he is the CEO.
What a joke !
Looks like with the new sales force and added partnerships, that the market penetrations will be seen vertically and horizontally. New markets, expanded markets, new territories. Looks like a green future to me. It is worth more than a starter to me now. Ups and downs, advances and setbacks, all a part of developing a business.

Clearly someone was not around when Paul wasted money and time training MSR's who quickly lost any enthusiasm trying to sell hypothetical gold to worms.
Well, I must respectfully disagree .... reads like a lot of blather to me beginning right away with the "working more efficiently from home" nonsense.
In LQMT's case working from home amounts to little more than improving ones golf handicap.
I just signed in and for the umteenth time passed the "Maze" ..... Seems that whomever took the significant time required to construct this OZ like curtain wased a lot of his/her life to figure out a fantasy.
After what I have witnessed over the prior 11-12 years it is hard to believe they have any rabbits left.
Yes, the whole market has sold off and continues to sell ... people accumulating cash waiting for the blood to run cold and red in the streets.
We all know that in the long run the stock market will go up so ... yeah ... I get the whole buy and hold thing for legit stock in legit and profitable companies.
Not sure that LQMT fits all those profiles. I sense the share price will fall as folks sell LQMT now, put their cash into better companies and then buy back in when it hits the $.06's.
I HOPE we are not looking at a Dow 20,000 type long term correction, but, the way my luck as been running I would not be surprised
Yeah, if we only knew then ( i.e. a coulpe of months ago) what we know now we'd have a few more dollars to buy back at the $.07 - $.08 level.
Just never seems to be the correct time to buy or sell.
Educated and unethical as related to the common shareholder is no virtue.
Wow ... and think about all the other milestones predicted that you did not identify ... what was the name of the facility that was going to partner with them a year or so ago ? began with an "E" I think.
It almost reads like a long term scam of some sort or at the very least a strategy that is based upon fickleness.
As many times before I'm frustrated and confused about what to do ... maybe I'll buy a couple of hundred thousand shares at $.08c and sell them the next time it goes to $.12c on the next promise and HOPE.
Thanks again for keeping it real and honest here on the board.
I do HOPE you are correct but contrary to Li's advice to be patient I am inpatient. At my age everything is urgent.
I can't take it with me but I sure as heck want to get rid of it all before I go .... LQMT may very well accomodate me in that regard.
Good luck to us all ...
I'll grant you most of that.
This thing is all based on HOPE, math wise and otherwise.
OVERNIGHT ???? It's been at least 30 YEARS !
The longer I'm in this thing the more of a joke it becomes ....
Not so glad he is sharing his share price with us.
I think I'll take some of that action ... who knows maybe this 80 to 1 shot will come in here as well as in Kentucky.
For sure good buddy ! we are almost in the 8's
Yeah, How about that share price of $.0917 !
That train has left the station !
Agreed ,,, if and when this all comes to a conclusion it is likely that folks will look at the shareholders and ask them what they were thinking.
As a matter of fact my very knowledgeable sons have been asking me the same thing for a few years now and I have run out of answers.
It's always darkest before the dawn is not working any more at this point as is:
1) Expect nothing and you will never be disappointed and,
2) Have patience.
Yeah, the train that left the station and didn't make it a mile down the road ..
I wonder if that will cover TC's expense account ?
Excellent point(s) that saved me the bother of composing the same kind of post. It is all smoke and mirrors .. LQMT is not in the business of selling anything !
WHY are they still a company ?????????
I think those tees may have gone the route of the tire air valves which I believed to be one of the low hanging fruits Steipp was talking about.
I was wrong once again.
