You left off LQMT as being a charitable donation to management all of these years. All investors have been left with is a tax write-off.
Liquidmetal, since the day of the IPO has been a divestment.
If you had started out as a billionaire with all in this stock, you would now be a millionaire.
Most sane people do not choose to become a millionaire this way.
Today is great news. Let's take it for what it is. Let's not spoil it with excessive hyperbolism.
The date is wrong. LQMT Coatings was given to John Kang by Tom Steipp after Steipp was named President in August of 2010.
It was the only profitable part of Liquidmetal. It was the original Liquidmetal Company started by William Johnson, Gerry Croopnick and another guy named Scruggs. This was the original business, the oilfield business, from which later development of BMG's became derived. Both Croopnick and Scruggs have died. Johnson is the sole surviving ORIGINAL PARTNER in this venture. It had been financed by Mrs Hewitt heiress and granddaughter of the John Deere Company.
this new team of executives came in after Victory Capital bought out the company. Kang is a minority shareholder along with Ricardo Salas.
You got mooned alright.
Cleveland Cliffs is headed back to a bottom around USD 15.00
The automobile market, CLF's biggest customers, is still tanking with no end in sight.
Remember, LL has two top-notch lawyers, TC and IB, and unbeatable team of legal-expertise, who can readily take on anything that Apple throws at them.
I'm assuming someone he knows broke down the Ultra Watch and discovered this is the material the watch is made of?
The last "source" to trust.
Tomorrow you will receive an advance release, confirming that LQMT Valencia is no longer receiving any revenue except for rent from the MadHatters.
Doubled my position, today, in the 1.90's
The most newsworthy event possible is that Lugee Li has fired all executives and employees of LQMT Valencia Circle. Maybe MadHackers will buy the Company.
Homeless? Investing all you got in LQMT is a sure fire way to homelessness.
Rivets require SHEAR STRENGTH. Liquidmetal shear strength not so great.
Yesterday's tomorrow is here and now today!
Big friggin disappointment. No roentgens at all.
Too bad one set of xrays today does not predict the future.
On the other hand, the rear view mirror has been most reliable.
Lucky to hold a plug nickel.
non-sequitur IMHO.
Don't worry, when the stock price takes off, it will only be after the next dilution reducing value another 90 percent.
LOL!
And, by the way, Lugee Li was the last sucker born under the PT Barnum reign at LQMT. And, with his command of English, I highly doubt he would be able to pass the LQMT Valencia Miracle on to anyone but another idiot.
His performance from 44 cents down to nickels and dimes just doesn't hack it, not even in the PENNY WORLD.
The so-called MM's are made up entirely of LQMT holders who are shorting against the box.
The Gap which is going to be created with the Apple car built by Foxconn in Lordstown:

The greatest success of Lugee Li has been running the stock down from 44 cents per share to a dime.
This is his great claim to fame.
It's nigh five years since he claimed profitability was just around the corner.
Damn, that sure was a big corner.
Indeed, so many investors have been caught up in this marvelous material, to the extent they are no longer called invested, but rather, divested of all of their cash. Most here have lost 90 percent of their original investment, when the stock was listed on NASDAQ. Of course, many have cost averaged down to virtually ZERO.
My call of USD 2.00 being the bottom for RIDE is still holding strong. I continue to hold this view. In a short time, we will not be discussing bottoms. Rather, we will be too busy to even discuss the tops, which will be way out of hand.
Mark my words: We will be totally there, not just almost, but totally there. Anything less will be a total misrepresentation.
I find it very refreshing NOT to have EXCITING PUMPS that only end up in the Kitty septic tank.
Well, yes, you are missing something:
This process has absolutely NOTHING to DO with bulk metallic glass or amorphous metals.
The key is to understanding, the dead give away is the "molten salt" or "liquid Metal" (read, like Gallium or mercury, etc.) true liquid metals.
Liquidmetal is NOT a liquid metal in its natural state.
Sorry to disappoint, but just like to keep the FACTS STRAIGHT.
Stuff like this belongs on the other board which is full of Stock Twits and the like.
It will continue to move in that direction. Why wouldn’t you sell, all the way up until the Apple conference ?
We all know that there will be a tremendous downside DURING the CONFERENCE.
The butcher shop is on fire. Time to beat it!
Mistakes are made every day. Dai joobu desu.
We already have maze interpreters who know nothing about the Chinese people or language. Why would we need a scientist?
This is the take I have on this clause:
Agree. I only see a nothun burger.
Yes, indeed. Spot on.
Just remember, if you say right, there will say left;
if you say, yes, then there will chime in with a no;
Shang Fang is the name of there's game.
To be true to my beliefs, I have to endorse what you say.
Not hyperventilation, perhaps, but the snore factor is unmistakable.
I repeat my earlier post. Bottom has hit.
Bottom has been hit, thank you and thank you for your cheap shares you sold. But they don't come close to the shares I bought at USD 1.40.
Time for another double when first purchaser is announced.
No way. if you only knew how all of the Chinese who lived in Vietnam for several generations were given the boot and exiled from Vietnam.
The Vietnamese hate the Chinese.
So good to hear from you. Most vendors like Apple are leaving the seen in China, mainly due to potential restrictions of major buying countries on being dependent upon China.
Lugee Li would do best to start manufacturing OUTSIDE of CHINA because his ultimate restraints are going to be the political ones. Lugee should manufacture, alternatively, say, in Vietnam because right now he is under too much pressure from the CCP.
He needs to escape the CCP and move as much money as he can OUT of CHINA.
His preventing production in the USA has crippled his potential sales. He needs to have at least one reliable supplier OUTSIDE of CHINA to meet the REDUNDANCY requirements of most Western purchasers.
Take care. I thought for sure, that over 20 years of being in LQMT that I would have recovered my investment by now.
Sadly, I will never see my dollars again.
Just remember that in business, Con artists attract con artists.
And con artists create and maintain penny stocks. Lugee Li is no less a con artist than John Kang.

Great Read and it doesn't bode well for Lugee Li
CHENG TING-FANG and LAULY LI, Nikkei Asia tech correspondentsAugust 17, 2022 11:04 JST
TAIPEI -- Apple is in talks to make Apple Watches and MacBooks in Vietnam for the first time, marking a further win for the Southeast Asian country as the U.S. tech giant looks to diversify production away from China.
Apple suppliers Luxshare Precision Industry and Foxconn have started test production of the Apple Watch in northern Vietnam with the aim of producing the device outside of China for the very first time, three people with direct knowledge of the matter told Nikkei Asia.
Vietnam is already Apple's most important production hub outside of China, producing a wide range of flagship products for the American company, including iPad tablets and AirPods earphones.
The Apple Watch is even more sophisticated, according to industry experts, who say that squeezing so many components into such a small case requires a high degree of technological skill. Producing the device would be a win for Vietnam as the country attempts to further upgrade its tech manufacturing sector.
Apple has also continued to shift iPad production to Vietnam after COVID-related lockdowns in Shanghai caused massive supply chain disruptions. BYD of China was the first to assist with this shift, though sources told Nikkei Asia that Foxconn, too, is now helping build more iPads in the Southeast Asian nation. Apple is also in talks with suppliers to build test production lines for its HomePod smart speakers in Vietnam, the people said.
On the MacBook front, Apple has asked suppliers to set up a test production line in Vietnam, two sources said. However, progress in moving mass production to the country has been slow, partly due to pandemic-related disruptions but also because notebook computer production involves a larger supply chain, multiple sources said. That network is currently centered on China and very cost-competitive, they added.
"AirPods, Apple Watch, HomePod and more ... Apple has big plans in Vietnam, apart from iPhone manufacturing," one of the people with direct knowledge of the situation said. "The components for MacBooks have become more modularized than in the past, which makes it easier to produce the laptops outside of China. But how to make it cost-competitive is another challenge."
Apple's diversification to Vietnam started with AirPods, which went into mass production there in 2020. The earphones were among the first Apple products whose assembly was shifted out of China after a trade war between Washington and Beijing broke out under former U.S. President Donald Trump.
The move signaled a change of approach for Apple, which had depended on China for almost all of its production needs for decades.
For Vietnam, Apple's shift -- and the U.S.-China tensions more broadly -- have been a boon. The number of Apple suppliers with facilities in the country has increased to at least 22 from 14 in 2018, according to Nikkei Asia's analysis of Apple's latest available suppliers list and interviews with sources. Many other major electronics manufacturers like Google, Dell and Amazon have also set up production in Vietnam to diversify beyond China, Nikkei Asia has previously reported.
Eddie Han, a senior analyst with Isaiah Research, told Nikkei Asia that electronics makers are trying to strike a balance amid Washington-Beijing tensions.
"Geographically, we find major international electronics brands such as Apple and Samsung trying to lower dependence on making products inside China. But on the other hand, these international players have adopted more China-based suppliers such as Luxshare and BYD for Apple, and Huaqin for Samsung to build more of their products," Han said. "Those are moves to balance the geopolitical impacts."
"China's role as the world's most important factory has been challenged since the trade war and then later its energy and zero-COVID policies," Han said. "That really makes Vietnam, which is close to China, an ideal destination for many electronics makers as the nation gradually grows its supply chain ecosystem."
Apple, Foxconn and Luxshare did not respond to Nikkei Asia's request for comment.
Looks like you have done well. Congratulations. Because of all your credible posts in the past, I believe your narrative completely.
Jack be nimble,
Jack be quick;
Jack jump over
The candlestick!
Good luck. Think you waited a bit too long, don't you, to sell off half of your holdings. Why not have done that at 3.70? Please clarify.
