$3.50 here we come! :)
I don't understand why no one iHub talking about the Amazon / Globalstar deal?! Isn't this kind of a big deal? "Amazon officially announced this morning it will acquire Globalstar (GSAT) for $11.6 billion." Not to mention the FCC is finally ripping up that 1990s "volume cap." They recognize that modern satellites have advanced software and directional antennas that can easily avoid interfering with older satellites without needing a blanket restriction on their power.
By eliminating this 30-year-old rule, the FCC is allowing modern LEO satellites to finally "turn the dial up" to full power, making high-speed, direct-to-device 5G from space a reality.
It is my understanding that this FCC ruling makes GCT Semiconductor the only true hybrid chip that can seamlessly process the full speed and frequency of these unrestricted satellite signals. I would appreciate your thoughts on this please!
Good for you. I'm glad you have money like that to risk. Not everyone has that luxury to gamble on what appears to be a bunch of bumbling, manipulative baboons. I hope that works out for you.
The technology is amazing but it sure is starting to look like a big freaking scam. Somebody told me when I sold not to sell on emotion. LMAO 🤣 I'm out at 15% above the current price. I only see it moving downward slowly too. These guys have lost all confidence from me. I'd look at it like this... If something happens I will be one of the first to know and I can buy in at a quarter even and make money. However, I think holding our breath and waiting for Tony Chung and the rest of the scammers and cheats to do something seems extremely counterproductive.
This is why I had to run and pull what little money I have out of this POS. If I think with my logical mind there is no other logic than the fact that we are screwed if we're depending on the team at Liquidmetal Lake Forest.
It will be amazing if we see $4.00. I think it's very possible we will see much higher than that though. I'm just tired of holding my breath for things, but I believe this company has what it takes.
You're welcome. I don't lie and cheat like the management of this company. I truly sold my shares. You didn't get them for under .12 .125 cents though. And if you consider that cheap okay. Good luck to you.
I think this is the first time I was maybe one out of three people that caused a stock to tank. I have lost all respect for these people. There is no reason that they cannot be forthcoming other than the fact that it's all about them and f*** the shareholder. I took a loss today and I took it because there's no way on earth I was going to hold on to this until my son someday your dad's a f***ing moron that trusted these people. Tony Chung sat there and told me at the shareholder meeting about his daughter who supposedly had some problems at birth. Your daughter didn't have 17 major surgeries you POS and you could give a crap less about any of your shareholders.
Thank you. Those are probably mine.
Nope. I dumped. I hate liars and cheats and that is what it appears we are dealing with. I can no longer make decisions based on hope.
Likewise... I'm so pissed at myself for believing there might be a chance management had some integrity.

I believe we all should care. Unless you know something you're not telling us. The fact that LI basically manipulated the stock price all while playing cat and mouse with his shares should be a red flag to all of us. To me that is not character, that is war and I'm not into the CEOs of the company I'm invested in going to war with it's shareholders.
I had to dump my shares. After almost 15-years of this and after Tony Chung hanging up on the call yesterday and not addressing why Li is playing the games he is, I'm out.
The fact that those shares are just missing in action is what bothers me the most. I don't care if he said he gave them to his dog that would be better than hanging up on us all.
Can you tell us why he did what he did then? I cannot think of any other reason but to be in control and leave us hanging holding the bag again.
I honestly can't at this point think of much more than he want's to control everything.
Thank you for looking out for every one all these years. You were right and I was wrong and I admit it. I hate myself for ever trusting these fools again. I wish you the best of luck sir!
At this point it feels like TC and the board are just doing the bare minimum to keep themselves out of jail. I'm so pissed at myself for every trusting these people again.
Please help me clarify. I am losing all trust in these people.
If the four LLCs that 'bought' Professor Li’s shares were dissolved without ever paying their promissory notes, and now all those shares are back in Hong Kong under his control, wasn't this whole process just a way to shuffle the deck while keeping the shares in the same hands? How can the board claim this was a transparent transaction for the benefit of the shareholders?

I've lost all faith in these clowns until they can prove otherwise. At this point I'm in Las Vegas and I have to plan on getting f*****
And tell proven otherwise, you were right and I was wrong and I admit it.
It sure doesn't look good for Liquidmetal USA. Everything in that 10K says that professor Lee has everything to gain and nothing to lose and liquid metal lake Forest investors have everything to lose and if he feels like it We might get paid someday. There is nothing that Tony Chung or any one of those directors are doing in my opinion to protect our interest.
This is the one I think I'm most confident about. Applied Medical is also a prospective customer.
510(k) Premarket Notification
I want to preface this by saying I’m definitely no professional when it comes to the technicalities of FDA approval. This looks like to me like it could be something significant. Is there anyone here who knows more about the 510(k) process than me who can chime in?
About a year ago, Tony Chung mentioned that Liquidmetal was producing surgical jaws out of stainless steel as basically prototypes. Now, with the meeting coming up in a couple of weeks, I'm seeing some breadcrumbs that suggest we might be moving past the prototype phase.
I’ve always speculated that Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) was the partner behind those prototypes. If the goal was to eventually replace stainless steel with Bulk Metallic Glass (BMG) for better precision and elasticity, would a 510(k) filing be the next logical step to prove "substantial equivalence" while upgrading the material?
I posted a hint about this yesterday and nobody bit, but the timing feels too coincidental to ignore. Is the groundwork for a pivot into medical devices finally being laid?
It is highly uncommon for a landlord to want an early out clause. In the world of commercial real estate, a landlord’s primary goal is long-term, predictable cash flow.
I’ve have to ask myself if I’m just seeing what I want to see, but when you look at the capacity of the 40 machines in Hangzhou and cross-reference that with the surgical jaw volume required by the big players I've been studying since at least 2017, the math stops being a theory and starts looking like a massive reality.
I'm going to go take a nap and I will be back... lol...
Call me maybe... LOL...
Volume at 5%: If we estimate 25 million procedures globally, and assume an average of 2 jaw-based tools per surgery, that is 50 million parts per year.
5% of that market = 2.5 million parts per year.
What this would mean for Liquidmetal (LQMT): For a company that reported roughly $900,000 in total revenue for 2024, the shift to high-volume medical manufacturing is a "company-maker":
Revenue Impact: Even at a conservative "MIM price" (Metal Injection Molding) of $5.00 to $10.00 per part (which is low for surgical-grade stainless steel components), 2.5 million parts would generate $12.5 million to $25 million in annual revenue.
The Growth Factor: That would be a 1,300% to 2,700% increase over their 2024 revenue from just one product line.
Research, why did you have to get my wheels spinning and me digging again? I thought I was content just watching the ticker, but your recent posts sent me back down the rabbit hole. At this point I really wish I was able to buy more shares. It's crazy how one finding can change a persons perspective completely. Remember I sold all of my shares. I made a decision to run and never look back. Then one night recently I was sitting on the couch and my damn brain asked my wife "I wonder what is happening in the world of Liquidmetal?" Damn brain!!
I’ve been digging into the laparoscopic device market for over a decade now—long before the recent hype. I’ve always felt that the "surgical jaw" was the "holy grail" application for this tech because of the precision and strength required for minimally invasive procedures.
This morning I found some information that suggests this might finally be coming to fruition. Like maybe now?!
We all remember Tony Chung speaking about those stainless steel surgical jaws roughly a year ago (March 2025). He mentioned a "satisfied customer" and the transition from prototyping to a MIM (Metal Injection Molding) order.
A few questions for you and the board:
Has anyone else connected the dots on which medical device giant might be the "satisfied customer"? I think I have and damnit I wish I could double down. Again, damn brain!!
With the 2025 year-end earnings call coming up in 2 days (March 12th), do we expect a formal update on the production scaling for these jaws?
Is it possible the revenue from these laparoscopic components is what's funding the new Hangzhou facility expansion?
I’ve been patient for decades on this specific application. It feels like we are closer than ever to seeing it reflect on the bottom line.
Before I share who I think got approval from the FDA to use Liquidmeatl (BMG), I would like to hear the boards thoughts on who they think the customer is.
Hint: The smoking gun is a decision date of 02/24/2026.
Okay, I'm a bull again!!
Please tell me if I’m wrong here. I genuinely respect someone who can point out where I’m off base, and I’d value that feedback.
I didn't intend to post again, but your insights are too thought-provoking to ignore. I’ll admit my outlook has been quite negative over the past few years, but after researching the new plant, I’ve had a change of heart. It appears to me that if there is integrity and fairness on all sides, Liquidmetal Lake Forest stands to profit from any U.S.-originated contract—including Apple.
However, the disappearance of those four LLCs from a small house in Florida is concerning. If this was a maneuver designed to evade shareholders, the executives could be facing significant legal exposure. I am NOT by any means implying that is what’s happening, but others on the board have suggested that if those shares have moved out of Professor Li's hands, we could be looking at a scam. I find that difficult to believe; the team at Lake Forest has far too much to lose to simply point the finger at China if things go sideways. In my view, if those entities were intentionally obscured, "for gain" we’re looking at more than just financial liability—we’re talking potential SEC criminal charges. I could be wrong, but I don't think this is the case or I wouldn't even be vested in the company at all. I walked once, I would walk again.
To me, a blatant scam just doesn't sound like the most logical move for Liquidmetal Lake Forest or China. If these shares were moved or obscured, I suspect it was a strategic maneuver to create trust within a much larger entity. I truly hope we see a fair outcome and that the past behaviors of this company don't dictate our future. What do you think?
Again, it appears to me that "if" there is integrity and a hint of fairness on all sides, Liquidmetal Lake Forest stands to profit from any contract originated in the U.S.—including Apple. I truly hope we see a fair outcome and the company's past performance doesn't define where we're headed from here. However, with the four LLCs from a small house in Florida going missing it is concerning to me.
The Loophole: While Apple has a "fully-paid" license for the IP, they do not have a "fully-paid" license for manufacturing.
The Revenue Path: If Apple decides they want the hinge made using Liquidmetal's specific machines and processes at the new Hangzhou plant, I "believe" they would issue a Purchase Order. Because the "customer" (Apple) is a US entity, the contract originates with Liquidmetal Lake Forest.
The Profit: Lake Forest would book the revenue from Apple, pay the Hangzhou plant for the labor and materials, and keep the "markup" as profit.
I would really appreciate your thoughts on this.
In my opinion this isn't even a rumor anymore. It's a fact liquid metal is going to be in those hinges. However, the big question lies will liquid metal lake Forest and it shareholders ever see a penny. We can only hope.
I'm almost certain I know where those shares went. They left a little house in Florida and went into some very powerful hands and I sure as hell hope that we all benefit as well is those powerful hands that hold them.
I just hope it's for the good of everyone and not just the executives and partners. If not, we're screwed.
I have one lol... He's amazing!
There would be no one left to trust if this goes down the negative path. It would be in the hands of China and Japan. There are some very big players involved here and it could go either way. I'm done speculating. There is no way to actually know if we're going to get screwed or win big. I believe I know what the plan is, whether we see a penny of that is up to integrity and nothing more.
Thank you. 😊 However, I'm not a new face. I've been around for about 15 years. I think I know what's going on, I just hope that it's for the benefit of everyone and not just for the management like it was during the Kang era. I wish you the very best of luck!
After my posts yesterday, I’ve had to step back and look at the broader map here and be more objective. In truth, I’ve had to kill my own cognitive dissonance out of pure self-preservation. While I have questioned the Liquidmetal team several times and held to my initial judgment that they possess the integrity to do right by the shareholders, I can no longer ignore that I see this trajectory in two very different lights.
I have seen the strategic moves of this 2026 cycle in these two very different lights. There is the brilliant global expansion we all hope for, and then there is the structural 'stealth phase' that often leaves the retail stakeholder behind. My initial judgment was that this team's character is the bedrock of this company—I truly hope the coming days prove me right and the skeptics on this board wrong.

This has Japan written all over it.
Look at the Matter Hackers lease. You might find it interesting that there's a 2-year clause in there 5-year lease that says LQMT can terminate the lease early if necessary. You never know, I might be overthinking things...
That's my last break crumb. I think...
I wish amazing things for everyone, especially Watts!
