Now that we seem to agree that USB-C "electronic" connector can be great business (triple digit millions) for LQMT.

Next debate within this board might be following:

Does USB-C connector (or any other electronic-mechanical devices) fall within the umbrella of Consumer Electronics?

I remembered the heated discussion in this board about project Titan when it was much more than just "autonomous driving".

Yeah, it's been a while now and it appears that "retail" investors are holding strong and waiting patiently for whatever comes down the road.

Most folks on this board seem to know that the material is indeed useful in some capacity but clearly it has not been made "marketable" or else it would have long since used in any number of applications. Since everything comes down to dollars and cents it seems logical to conclude that LI has to convince buyers that it is cheaper and "better" than the material they are now utilizing to make whatever they sell. Getting companies to re-tool in that manner has to be a difficult task, so much so that Mr. Hauck and his sales reps (remember all those people who were "trained" a couple of years ago ?) have not yet made much progress.

Like others posting here, I'm waiting and hoping that LI is indeed trying to make some breakthroughs and did not purchase almost 50% of the company for some other reason(s). I haven't a clue what those reasons could be but I'm sure they exist nonetheless.

I sense that not many of us are going to sell until the plug is pulled one way or the other so perhaps our cash is safe for a while. However, there will be a point where selling pressure will surface and we shall be tested to either cash in for a good profit or sell on a fear that Li will not succeed. I HOPE that in the next year or so the picture will be a little more clear but right now even the most optimistic amongst us have to be concerned waiting for something to occur.
