The market places today for new materials are now exposed to and very well aware of amorphous metal/ bulk metal glass. The struggle to adapt the new material does take time for many reasons. Existing Inventories, orders, testing of a new product, convincing the target areas to a new manufacturing process etc. LQMT has much experience with failures. But the demand for a better product and the ability to produce that product will start a new future and a new history for LQMT. If LQMT cannot sell water in a desert or ice cream and candy to a child.... Then we/they are at a point when all can say we are in trouble, we/they are in deep donkey dust. Despite of themselves, the markets are now ready for Liquidmetal from all sources. Is LQMT ready to deliver?
They are beginning to build momentum. Insiders do not appear to be backing up what they blog/post and so there is a sound basis to doubt. Lack of sales, lack volume, lack of legitimate PR. But if you see the insiders of LQMT or clients that they are doing business with scoop up shares, then all will be very happy we rolled the dice between.06 and .36.
As of yet there are no big CE products screaming LM. There are other markets testing and using LM. What are the CE manufactures seeing that we are not? If it is a secret, it does not make sense. The bigger question is why is Apple taking so long? Their sales of certain products are down 30%. Due to price and competition from bells and whistles and not from hardware. Its not about LM. So why invest over $500 million and more in a new material if you are not using it to an advantage? So then it is not a question of if. Its a question of when. Hence we have the hype, speculation and interest also based on a sound basis. The Apple patents and investments.
So all here post valid points of views, not in the form of pro and con, but in the form of progress or no progress. Reality shows little progress and its reflected in the pps and volume. Reality is the result of how the company is doing, no matter what we believe. It is a snapshot of now and not of the past nor of the future. It is for some a snapshot of no to a little progress and for some a little to a lot of progress.
No matter what we post or believe or expect the pps is where LQMT is at. Just note the pps is in a better place then .06, and there is a sound basis for that too.
Have a great weekend.
