Liquidmetal Technologies Inc (LQMT)

[Researchfyi]

Another week passes and LQMT remains flat at .0856 cents. Once again, A stock with anemic trading volumes, very little liquidity and very little interest are always subject to wide trading ranges up and down daily. Add to this, little to no communications via blog posts or PR’s of progress and minuscule contracts. This type of operations and trading activity sometimes leads to paranoiac explanations and expectations.

Unfortunately for everyone who own shares in LQMT as outsiders. This type of trading activity has been going on for a very long time, periodically interrupted by major changes in operations, executive departures and infrequent minuscule contracts not having a significant impact on LQMT’s bottom line. (See recent 10Q.) All of which have not resulted in any pattern of increasing shareholder value.

Where outsiders were led to believe that LQMT was ready for high volume parts contracts a few years ago by executive commentary, (the reasons for laying off staff, shutting down domestic manufacturing at LF CA., and outsourcing manufacturing to China,) it’s now apparent Imho, it was all a ruse. This opinion is backed up by existing contracts of no high volume parts being manufactured for customers and zero future positive guidance in the last two 10Q’s and YOY growth missing in the last 10K. Also missing in a PR from the recent 10Q are any positive forward worded commentary from any executive of LQMT.

The bottom line as stated last week: There seems to be more focus on speculative opinions, then on the real consequences of the upcoming 10Q.

In essence a loss of focus on LQMT. All of which can be directly connected to the achievements of management, IMHO.

Could be time to think about a different investment strategy both long and short. LQMT still has cash to operate whether anyone has faith or no faith in any or all executives to succeed. Outside of what all do not know, there should be no reason to panic. No new reasons to buy, add or sell. Just a reasons to consider new strategies.

Good luck to all in LQMT.
Not even the Apple hype has a positive effect any longer for some time now. In fact the Apple hype is having a negative affect this time around. Just follow the actual data year over year and not the opinionated ones.
