I still scratch my head on how/why Li didn't negotiate for 50%+...

Something there..

...LQMT only has 200 shareholders of record.

That does not mean that only 200 individual persons own shares in LQMT. There are many hundreds, more likely a few thousands, of people who actually own shares in LQMT. The shareholder of record is often a brokerage house or a bank. They hold shares in the name of the beneficial owners (people like you and me), who are the ultimate owners of a stock. Publicly traded securities are commonly registered in the name of a broker (the shareholder of record) for two reasons: convince and safe keeping.

People are buying shares in companies solely on the basis of potential, rather than revenues, when they understand what it is that the company is trying to sell, and understands the potential market of said companies. LQMT's product is a hard sell to materials engineers. It's a much harder sell to the general investing crowd.

Members of this message board are incredibly well versed on the technological benefits of amorphous metals. We understand the product, so we can envision its market potential. But we are a small, select group. It's a mistake to think that the general public is ignoring LQMT's potential because they don't like the technology. They don't understand it, even if they've heard about it. That's why it will take either big jump up in revenues, or the announcement of a contract from a marquee company, to get this stock moving up in high gear.

This is why we languish at ten cents:

So far Li and company still has not performed.

We still live on FOMO and Blogs, and a couple posters DD on this board that has not led to any real fruit.

This stock is still a long shot, but it looks like we might be getting closer.

“No promises, but dam are we getting close”

That’s the hype we live off of.

Doesn’t mean Lugee isn’t doing everything he can.

I will be selling a good portion of my shares if I don’t see something this year.
