That was as clear as mud :). Good reason for a beer...
--you take THEIR settlements
or go to trial and lose.
all i’m saying is either way they win.
win settlement rate is actually over 99%
i was being optimistic;)--
YEP. There is the magic of the FEDS.
They have the resources to pound you poor.
Their ability to get a guilty plea from Bond is 'child's play'.
They NEED the occasional 'Whipping Boy' to get some publicity on how they BURIED some bad player. Seems that Jason Bond is the new Whipping Boy! LOVING it!
-The reality is $.08 and not profitable. Doesn’t look too good for us...-
Agreed. IMO we best face it. This sick cow is not going to produce milk. It is the HIGH HOPE which is keeping investors here.. I am pretty much even at $.09. (-$900 loss) on 60k shares and have a couple weeks to figure out if I sell as a Tax Loss, or let it ride simply out of curiosity. Curiosity will likely win out.
Seems to me that this has been a USA-CHINA Tech Transfer and NOTHING more.
Happy Holiday Season to everyone..
Yes it does feel like investors have been taken for a ride... I believe this was a technology transfer to the Chinese Gov. The Chinese do this all the time in little ways. They steal whatever Tech they feel would benefit the State. Li will do whatever the Chinese State tells him to do. -JMHO
--Who knows, maybe this is just another form of Hell that awaits the foolish investor--
Yes. It could be a nightmare! One of the many layers of hell which we go through to find out true selves.. This is all predetermined. Apparently some are destined to win and other to loose. -wink-
Li does not pump and real news be relevant to the serious investor that believes in going long. I would be very satisfied with 10 bucks in 8 to 10 years.
I agree that 5-8 years is a realistic assumption.
Welcome aboard 3minBandit.
Your statement seems strong. But around here, 'Talk is very Cheap'.
Let's see what you have.
Not sure if this has been posted.
*Liquidmetal Technologies (OTC:LQMT) reported $421 thousand in sales this quarter. This is a 66.40 percent increase over sales of $253 thousand the same period last year.
So give it another 2 years and we might actually have something.
My cost is about 10 cents. So I would delighted to get $2.00 at this point. :)
--Three weeks from now, you'll understand--
I sure hope so... :). Times awaiting!
The large O/S is really the only thing concerning to me here. I believe they start the release of news on a regular basis after the selling of shares is complete. I really want to see more descriptive financials. 1B+ revenues , this should be profitable. I know the private sector doesn't care what the EPS is. They don't want to show profits for tax reasons. Now being a publicly traded company, that is what most investors look at first and those numbers better be good!
I figure were talking big data and data mining using propriety software... Seems large investing firms would be interested.
--I dumped 2/3 of mine at a loss. Still have the rest. It's highly speculative. Knew this going in. Thought the debut would hit $12 at least, though--
Yep. I got boinked as well. I was hoping to sell at $12 also.
Just Licking my wounds.... :(
I am still Holding the shares But this could change...
Thanks for the message...
I'm with you we still have a prayer $20 stock easy
I believe so.
I got spanked.
I am holding $11.00 shares with egg on my face..
Plain and Simple.. I got it wrong.
Attention: Almost There
Yes. It is double from the recent BOTTON. But many paid $0.80.
What was your FIRST purchase price? Mine was around $0.80. So THAT is really the number long term holders need to beat if they are still holding those original shares.
In my case, I SOLD the $0.80's as a tax loss at year end. Then I waited 30 days and rebought a position at $0.08. So I am now in the positive on the new shares.
However... Anyone who is still holding their original $0.80 cent shares are still underwater until they reach the $0.80 price.
--$AAPL | Possible Long Setup in #Apple --
Yes. Agreed. I am thinking $120. $140 NEXT YEAR.
--Did you sell the double or are you holding?--
I am currently holding at +42.77%
I am just waiting. The APPLE event was void of any mention of LQMT mid-frame so I am as frustrated with the position and the lack of news.
As far as selling? IDK: Part of me wants to cash in and forget this position all together. But the other side says Apple MID frame next year. So IDK.
Have a double in LQMT.
I sold my former position last year as a tax loss to offset some Apple gains and then rebought LQMT as a 'new' LARGE position on the low-low price which has since doubled in value. Really more fortuitous than than I had hoped for.
--This is about believing in this material if you hold--
I am a believer in the material, and believe that with 5G we will see this move precipitously.
After selling my 'old ' beat-op position at a small loss, and then writing it off on last years Taxes. I then rebought 60k of shares at $0.0999. I feel that I am am sitting pretty and in tall cotton.
I feel positive thus far but this has certainly been an Episode of: "As The Stomach Turns'.
Good Luck to you all.. I enjoy reading others opinions.
Yes. I realize some folks are still holding their original shares.. I wrote off my previous LQMT losses at tax time last year, then started a NEW position at 7-cents and started slowly added shares.
I am totally pleased with the current up-swing.. Perhaps this could be the start of something we have all been waiting for. Want bothers me is the lack of Li's communication and disclosures. But he did say he was not a talker. On that he has been consistent. I am not going to get too giddy over this but it seems to be what we have waited for.
Good Luck to everyone...
--At some point, LQMT gets bought. imo--
It was bought. By Professor Li. I doubt he is going to sell it now. JMO
It has been a more than a few years and several iterations. It has always has sounded great too.
But $HOW me the Money... :)
Very Clever response and presentation. :)
IMO: There has to a silver lining somewhere in all this. NDA's are in place. The Fruit Company is my first 'guess'. Li is working for Apple. Not a stretch IMO.
-The Chinese have been raiding US techs on a regular basis, which is the center of the current bad relations. What happened at LQMT falls easily
within that pattern. I very much doubt if the CCP will be our benefactor.
And the silence....the exact opposite of transparency....goes with the territory
China wanted the technology. They got it. I cant really see past that at this point.
-Even what you heard Lugee Li to say is hearsay or bullcrap until it is consummated in the financials. THAT IS THE FACT, MADRE.[/I]-
Yep. It needs to be real as investors are tiring of the noise and bluster. Right now LQMT is a an enigma wrapped up in bluster and hyperbole. It is past time. WE want to see the $$$.
-That truck looks hideous....-
---------
To each their own.. I think they are pretty cool and they will grow on you unless your old as a can of Spam. I thought I read somewhere that they were producing, or going to produce door latches out of Liquid Metal. These door latches are primarily for the Tesla Model w/ Gull Wing doors.
This could be old news.
Yea I hear that. LQMT has been toilet in my portfolio too. I wash off the losses using my yearly AAPL sales/gains. Thank you APPLE.
Humm... If true I now wonder what new interation are we heading into?
I got in LQMT because I saw the articles about Apple (in 2012) buying the rights for the materials use. I think I started buying shares at $ .44. It then POPPED to $1.00 and I was hooked. It appears that the biggest reason for the majority of us was the Apple hype along with the GT Glass deal. It just seemed like the perfect match for the Apple Watch at the time. NOT!
I recall soon after I bought LQMT shares in around 2012 it popped to 1.00 on volume buying. Only to take a HUGE dump shortly there after and we have NEVER seen a rally since. From memory: We Popped and we started getting that fuzzy feeling as GT Glass was going to build a manufacturing plant and all the other stories seems to be falling into place.. Then like a clam closing it was NOT. Next Professor Li steps up and pretty much rescues our hope.. We have been Patient and Hopeful for 8-yrs. I will be using my LQMT position as a total loss on next years Income Taxes. This is MY only 'stinking' position at present and it is like the poster child for the ol' Whoopee-Do.
I was just curious what others were thinking.. Thank to everyone for sharing, and you're responses.
Good Health and Best Luck to all.

It has never been clear what LQMT investors can expect from Li and where exactly we are in the loop.
For all at the mentions of Li's honor.. and how he will treat investors right at some point in time.. Well I am skeptical.
We seem to have been through a lot of unknowns for many years. Apple refreshing its license is where I place my recent HOPE.
Well, I can relate to that. I have a few dead dogs I continue to feed too. The one reason I am in LQMT is because of the soon to appear 5g spectrum rollout. 5G is fast but has it own quirks such and the case materials. I would like to hear why others are still in LQMT. Addiction to pain does NOT count!
I do believe there are many like minded people who would probably sell if it were not for the optimism voiced on this board daily. Think of what the mindset would be without their shot of FOMO every so often.[/I]
Yep. It seems that hope breaths eternal here. Hard to fathom that this will ever really pay out at this point. BUT who knows. Just a curiosity for me at this point in time.
I am kinda wondering why long time holders (myself included) are STILL in LQMT.
After several years of hope... What have we got?
Just saying...
It has been Dead money for HOW many years now?
I continue to hold shares. But I see LQMT as a Lottery Ticket.
Is there anything else that makes sense?
I
With all respect. Why are so many of you still championing Li?
What has he done for investors which reflects on the stock price? Nothing.
He says. "Trust me, I don't talk I do". So how is this working out for we investors thus far?
Just keeping it real....
he doesn’t own the shares.
he is part of the communist party.
we are not partners.
Lukin Coffee is more applicable to this stock.
Exactly~! Commie Party owns us and our future in LQMT.
Perfect Flim-Flam scam via the Chinese Communist Party and its anointed ones. We will get less than squat and the technology is transferred to the Chinese.
Kiss it goodbye!
Yes, it has been a never-ending cluster Fk. I continue to hold my position more out of stubbornness and curiosity than anything based in reality and fact.
