IS LIQUIDMETAL CEO PROFESSOR LUGEE LI FOR REAL?

As promised in my last report, this report presents a summary of a culmination of two weeks of research, snooping into database, and applying tested business strategies and tactics to my thinking about the Liquidmetal business model and likelihood of success. Importantly, I’ve satisfied myself with answers to two mysterious questions surrounding Liquidmetal.

One: why would a scientist and businessman from Hong Kong come to the United States and drop $62 million of his own money into a company with almost no revenue and a $5.6 million annual cash-burn rate?

And, two: what evidence suggests this Hong Kong businessman is not another unrealistic investor on a mission of folly?

I mean, is this man, professor/scientist, principal stockholder and CEO of Liquidmetal, professor Lugee Li, embarking on what is destined to become merely an expense hobby of his, resulting in “investors” morphing into de facto ‘angel investors’ of his cause? Or, is professor Li setting a table for a massive banquet, as he has done with his first company: Eontec, Liquidmetal Technologies sister enterprise---and profitable, 24-year-old enterprise, worth $1.51 billion.

Well, that’s the deal. Either professor Li is another shameless stock promoter, like an Andy Marsh of Plug Power (ticker: PLUG), who gladly states on Plug Power’s website that his “top priority is to serve as Plug Power’s chief promoter,” or is professor Li a man who speaks softly but carries a big stick? He sure is quiet, and I’d like to see how big his stick is.

So, there you have it. One day, professor Li of Hong Kong flies into the U.S., plops $62 million on the table and buys complete control of Liquidmetal Technologies, a company of which, whose only real assets are a vault-full of patents, no real revenue, and no plant of much capacity---only intellectual property.

But after taking control of the company in Dec. 2016, professor Li quickly built a state-of-the-art plant of significant capacity, and launched an ‘open house’ to the public as if he debuted a novel and ‘hip’ coffee shop.

So, I scratched my head earlier this year until now, and wondered why my expectations of more action in LQMT hasn’t materialized, yet. Patience, of course, is how I’ve made some of my biggest ‘scores’. But, I seriously dug into my research skill set to answer the two nagging questions we all have. So, what does this businessman from Hong Kong see others don’t see? And why was Li so anxious to plop a whopping-fat bag a cash on the proverbial roulette wheel of this amorphous metals technologies market?

A streetwise observer of the Liquidmetal story must, therefore, conclude that the likelihood of a rigged wheel in professor Li’s favor must be high. And we must conclude professor Li knows the wheel is rigged.

Folks, it’s pretty straight forward. And I’ve never seen anything like this, and never in this way. And I intend to prove in this report that professor Lugee Li has rigged the wheel. I’ve crossed every ‘T’ and dotted each ‘I’ during my investigative research, and have arguably uncovered the details of this $62 million ‘whodunnit’.

And it’s big! It must be. Right? The only alternative conclusion that must be drawn is, that Li is just another pie-in-the-sky scientist (a la Andy March and his battery scam) who also suffers from a terrible gambling habit.

So, allow my to demonstrate, that professor Li is no gambler. In essence, what Li has done is akin to a chess grandmaster winning a complex game by forcing a ‘zugzwang’, whereby the professor’s opponent must legally move a piece into the trap of the professor’s mating net.

‘SILENCE’ AT LIQUIDMETAL BROKEN THIS YEAR

Okay, let’s start with Entrepreneurship 101: Who is Li’s target customer?

Answer: Innovative producers.

We’ve seen Apple and Tesla, arguably the two most iconic and innovative companies of the 21st century, are already Liquidmetal customers at the initial stage of this amorphous metals technologies revolution. Presently, Liquidmetal sister-company Eontec makes amorphous metal door-lock cases for Tesla. And periodically, Apple pays for updated and limited patent rights developed by Liquidmetal.

So far, revenue from both customers doesn’t pay the bills. Big deal. Right? Is the puny stream of revenue from these two companies the full extent of the relationship between Liquidmetal and both Apple and Tesla?

Hardly.

These relationships are only in the honeymoon phase ( the ‘beta run’ phase of the mass production protocol). But now that the honeymoon period is passing, and now I clearly see why the relationships are likely to ‘get real’. And it’s the Tesla relationship with Liquidmetal, specifically, where I see Tesla CEO Elon Musk and professor Li no longer able to contain the industry secrets that these two men have been holding from investors of both TSLA and LQMT for so long.

I expect the long silence from Liquidmetal will be broken this year, along with the range-bound share price of LQMT, as Elon Musk’s reputation for intimating what’s next for Tesla ushers into mainstream financial media at some time during the second-half of this calendar year. By then, Liquidmetal cannot contain the leaks originating from the company about its role in Musk’s next act.

Last week, we’ve already seen big volume in LQMT without announcements or ‘article mention’. So, something is rumbling within the walls of Rancho Santa Margarita, California, an I surmised what the rumblings are all about.

WHAT WILL BE THE CATALYST FOR A LQMT BREAKOUT?

The LQMT price breakout will come via the unveiling of Tesla’s next innovation (or leak of a coming announcement). A that time, the finger as to where Tesla will be getting it technology/parts will be pointed at a handful of supplier, with Liquidmetal Technologies as one of them. That’s when the stampede into LQMT will commence in earnest. And, if anyone remembers the frenzy of buying that took place during the marijuana stock craze of 2013, the price pattern of LQMT may well look like the price patterns of ‘pot stocks’ in that year of emancipation of a wildly popular substance.

Bear with me on this report. Much of what needs to be aired in this report about Liquidmetal is about Tesla, from where the catalyst for LQMT investors will come. But, after I’m done laying out my discoveries and analysis, you’ll immediately see the connection to Liquidmetal investors and the implications of that connection.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk has hinted of extraordinary claims ascribed to his plans for Tesla Glass. When speaking to Wall Street analysts in late-2016, Musk said, “Tesla has created a glass technology group --- with some really phenomenal people,” a group which was later revealed as “Tesla Glass,” a division of Tesla, Inc.

And ever since Musk’s announcement of Tesla Glass, many articles have been published, speculating about the capabilities of Musk’s ideas. In other words, what’s so great about Tesla Glass, aside from its cool looks on rooftops? With an exception of a handful of Musk’s lieutenants and Musk, himself, no one knows the full scope of the planned innovations and the ‘wow’ to come of Tesla Glass.

But, here’s what Musk stated in a tweet that provided me with that tiny glimpse I needed into where Musk is taking Tesla Glass, and how Liquidmetal Technologies/Eontec likely plays a key role in Musk’s dream of leading the world with his space-age technologies. In Musk’s mind (and I have little reservations of stating this), he believes he’s destined to go down in history as the most innovative visionary of futuristic consumer products since Steve Jobs of Apple fame. Therefore, I expect incredible innovations coming out of Tesla Glass.

THE ‘TWEET’ THAT DROVE ME TO MY BET ON LQMT

Okay, here’s the tweet by Musk of Oct. 28, 2016 which gave me more than enough to work with toward the unraveling of the technology ‘secret’ behind future Tesla Glass projects:

“Solar glass tiles can also incorporate heating elements, like rear defroster on a car, to clear roof of snow and keep generating energy,” Musk entitled his tweet.
