LQMT and the realities of a very serious recession. A poster today posted views on the state of our economies today with a snapshot of where the economy is and his position on LQMT, and although businesses that may connect with LQMT in the future will be affected, I agree with the posters view to hold onto LQMT in the event of a recession or in the event there is no recession. Not as a hedge. But due to the fact that LQMT’s present share price are not dependent on these mega cap companies where no contracts exist in the first place. Thus a decrease in mega cap stock values have no impact on LQMT short term. It will affect LQMT by possibly delaying a contract. The key here is simply this. Is there an economical benefit to use LQMT’s IP or not! Will the use of a superior material increase or decrease profits?
With inflation the way it is and where it’s going and inaction by the treasury for over six months now to tame it, may very well lead to something more serious then “short term volatility.” It may lead to another recession and long term stagnation experienced between 2008 through 2015.
When asked about these casinos (the stock markets) I always remind people, the elevator does not always go up. You have to know which floor to get off. Otherwise emotional investing kicks in and the elevator cables begin to vibrate and fail.
Follow your gut instinct. Is there more upside or downside? Are global worries increasing or decreasing? Will the price of energy suck all discretionary spending out of the economy? Is that good for the stock markets?
Is inflation the only problem affecting the price of goods sold? The failures of measuring crime and it’s impact to force businesses to close stores, to raise prices to recover losses alone, will suck the wind out of the economy here let alone energy prices and inflation and global fears.
If it were just inflation I would agree on a possible short term correction. But it’s not. There are many other factors here in play and I do not think that what is in play here will permit the powers in play to build more floors on top of the existing ones for this elevator to keep on going up at the pace of 2016 through 2021. That’s why the elevator has stalled at the top of existing levels. Both businesses and the powers in play are grasping for imaginary solutions from their bag of tricks to avoid looking at the real causes and affects to find real solutions
It always happens when (to be polite) idiots are in charge and its not about any one particular political party. As one of this country’s best known former comedian’s Bob Hope, once said; "No one party can fool all of the people all of the time. That's why we have two parties."
That’s why the roller coaster ride slowed down. The children on the ride are not sure if the roller coaster is going higher it’s there first ride. The adults know better from experience.
Notice while the markets have pulled back, YTD LQMT has not. The same reasons for buying LQMT stock have not changed due to any recession. I have held onto LQMT through two serious recessions. Another one will have no bearing on LQMT imo. Not until LQMT has contracts with companies affected by an economic downturn will LQMT be affected. In other words LQMT is already at the bottom rung. It never rocketed up when the markets climbed upwards through two bull markets nor rocketed down due to and throughout two bear markets. Why? Because once again LQMT has no contracts with mega caps and little revenues from a mid cap. They are probably more prone to a late rent payment being more of a liability.
Sometimes the obvious is overlooked. LQMT never got on the up elevator in the first place. The last time they were on the top floor, they used the back stairway and paid a hefty price for it. Not to mention they were sent down to the basement and only came up for three cigarette breaks. The last one in 2017.
Think wisely with this dice roll and with the rest of your portfolio.
Hang in there.
Good luck to all in LQMT.
