Another week passes part 2, and LQMT’s share price is down 4.0982% from 0.0499 cents to 0.047855 cents on extremely weak trading volumes and little interest. The same when LQMT moves up or down.
A few years ago…
LQMT received an order for a number of parts in the thousands, which they were not able to manufacture on their own to meet the demand.
LQMT was in the process of what outsiders were led to believe, to be upgrading their electrical power grid to facilitate expansion to increase domestic manufacturing for high volume parts.
Not only do they (LQMT) stop improving the opportunity to meet that demand domestically. All manufacturing is shut down. People are laid off. (It should have been a clue.) We were too busy listening to LQMT spin. Touting a new manufacturer. The existing equipment is in mothballs and the high volume 60,000 thousand part order for a dental product is fulfilled by China over three years ago.
And then that’s it! Crickets! Zero, zilch, nada. The whole purpose and necessity for high volume parts to be ordered and shifting manufacturing to a more capable source abroad falls apart as there is to date not another necessity to manufacture high volume part orders under contract.
In hindsight, I could see (and maybe others will agree) shifting domestic manufacturing to a source abroad would make a lot of sense if it were an interim strategy, until the power upgrade was in place and additional equipment ordered to facilitate LQMT’s own domestic high volume manufacturing capabilities. What the hell did LL have to lose? But to shut it down completely and lose out on the potential to satisfy a high volume manufacturing part contract from any company prohibited or desires not to do business with China, begs the inclination that the shift truly was a scam.
Like Watts Watt has pointed out from time to time and has stated in a past post. Has LQMT put money into your pockets or have they sucked it out?
Back in the day. Some posters have stated in there replies to me you can’t have it both ways. I don’t. I see the realities for real potential and then I see the realities of what LQMT has produced and what they say they are doing and both potential and rhetoric are absolutely in direct conflict with their results year after year.
And I don’t mean with just revenues up and down. I’m talking about what Watts Watt pointed out. The value of every outsiders investment is factually worth less in LQMT! Our hard earned money, our hard earned wealth is in fact being sucked out!
I can’t say, but I don’t think anyone else felt LQMT, was a scam. BB stock gurus were screaming and the www were all buzzing Apple, Apple, Apple, or much earlier, Samsung, Sandisk, when they first invested before LL entered this debacle of wait until next year. But I can say it sure does feel like a scam today. Created by the decisions of LL not to have shifted high volume parts manufacturing back to a state here in the USA more favorable to manufacturing businesses, where mega companies would feel more comfortable with a second source to fulfill high volume part orders. That would have been a more sound strategy, a more sound decision. Unfortunately that decision never took place, and screams out the definite appearance of scam.
So, no matter what anyone believes in, as far as LQMT is concerned. All know the mantra, even if they don’t post it. !!!WAIT UNTIL NEXT YEAR!!!
If there is anyone (and I’m sure there is at least one) who still does not know why I do not post in a giddy positive manner. It is because I post on what has occurred factually, and what is factually, and not with, the what if can be BS making up all sorts of speculative excuses to hold.
Based on what some of the posted opinions are, I’m beginning to think FOMO is no longer the reason for holding. I’m beginning to think many are just looking to get their money out or eke out a little green between 25 and 40 cents. There is less feeling of missing out and more feeling to get out.
When was the last time you read of a major contract announcement lifting up the value of your hard earned money? I’ll make it easy for everyone. You can go back to the IPO if you think it makes a difference.
No matter what your LQMT views are. The time for contracts was twenty years ago! And here we are today with both long term investors and short term investor's still saying the same thing. Contracts!
Why are there no contracts of any size consistently being announced to put money in our pockets instead of sucking the money and wealth out?
LQMT is either trying as hard as they can to sell or as many point out it is a scam. I can’t tell how hard LQMT is working or not by way of their strategy not to communicate via PR’s or biweekly through executive blog commentary, since I don’t see any of either one monthly as well.
But I can see the clear correlation of why many would view LQMT as a scam, in lieu of LQMT’s silence and actual results both long term and short term by failing to increase the value of money invested.
LQMT. Like being invested in an American company, in name only.
Even the la la land maze is made in China. If only those dots and dashes were real money directly feeding LQMT, we all would own a marina a launch pad and a railroad and the world would be a better place. :)
I try to present a balanced view based on the facts not on the emotions of anyone hyping or bashing LQMT. I believe I nailed it correctly. This board has had it correct past and present from potential to expectations to hope to FOMO.
Good luck to everyone in LQMT.
Sorry for the rant. But it did happen.

Another week passes, part 1, and LQMT’s share price is down 0.040982% from 0.0499 cents to 0.047855 cents on extremely weak trading volumes and little interest. The same when LQMT moves up or down.
The share price languishes in a coma. Whether it hits the 0.02’s, 0.03’s, 0.04’s or 0.05’s it is still a good entry point for this dice roll, if you like high risk, huge losses and no reward historically. This stock could be for you.
LQMT is now into its 33rd consecutive month without a new 8K contract announcement for the order of parts.
LQMT has reported three consecutive quarterly increases in revenues. Much or all of the new revenues comes from undisclosed agreement terms. These new revenues are apparently not enough to attract the attention of other investors to add liquidity daily.
“Short term we can still go into the 0.03’s again. Although not good for the MM’s looking to make a score.
LQMT can also break a dime within two more quarters as well if TC’s integrity for new deals comes to fruition. Thus setting up another possible wash rinse and repeat cycle, rather than establishing a new long term trend. I say this in lieu of LQMT’s consistent historical record of not improving on the fundamentals of the company.
For those still not understanding the above opinions, it’s simple. You look at your investments in LQMT and then you look at your wallet!
For now, LQMT’s share price is holding in the low pennies. Climbing slowly from the upper 0.03’s and touching the nickel’s again.
Perhaps in 2025 or 2026 LQMT might succeed and if they ever do make it in 2024, all in it will be very thankful and glad that they did.
I try to present a balanced view based on the facts not on the emotions of anyone hyping or bashing LQMT. I believe I nailed it correctly. This board has had it correct past and present from potential to expectations to hope to FOMO.
Will this be the year revenues increase consistently? Only the 3rd and 4th Q’s will tell. 2 down and 2 to go. So far it looks good.
I would rather see a weekly LQMT blog update on any progress from the company, than to post another week passes post. I’m sure everyone else would agree.
Aside from the cash assets and liquid assets and any other revenues stated on the quarterly or annual 10K report. Aside from the blog pictures of products and prototypes. And aside from the 21 or so door to door/cold call sales force…Does anyone and I mean anyone, really know what LQMT, is doing to build up shareholder value?
Before anyone or no one replies let me say this first. “I didn’t think so.”
I say this not to be disrespectful. But just to warn anyone who might be emotionally tempted to invest before doing their own DD, the next time you hear anyone telling you this is your last chance to buy in or it’s going up like yesterday or it’s the opportunity of a lifetime. Ask them to read this post. Then ask them to read the replies.
For two decades LQMT has been the opportunity of a lifetime and I do mean a lifetime around the www and many message boards.
For two decades LQMT has left the train station, the rocket launch pad and the marina.
For over a decade, investors who hype and pump and follow great finds to a point, where no other view is tolerable, refuse to see the fact that there is absolutely no correlation between their own views and the share price or shareholder value of their investment. Not for just days or months or years. But for over a decade.
For people who believe in ghosts, delusions, market gurus, hypers, pumpers, those snookered and even annual end of year one way call commentary from a ceo, where control of the company rests in the hands of a citizen governed by China and the ccp. Respectively, this stock is for you.
It’s sort of like the ceo, telling you don’t invest on what I say. Read the 10k and due your own DD.
I’m totally surprised LQMT, has never appeared on any of the many television shows who claim to be investigating paranormal activity.
Where almost many investors still see apparitions of the share price in time breaking between $1, $2, $5, $10, $15 or higher.
Where market gurus and reputable high tech analysts years ago can see the material in millions of products.
Where a company sold its IP CE rights in perpetuity to a super mega cap to reduce the possibility from profiting off of CE part sales.
Where a professor holds about 46% of the company’s stock in Hong Kong, once worth over $178 million dollars and now valued a little over $20 million dollars. A loss in value of about $158 million dollars.
Where the CEO as recent as last year, made an insider purchase of about a million shares and former executives still have stock options to buy and sell.
Where hundreds of prototypes are engineered and only 2, 3, or maybe 4 major customers exist as stated on the 10K.
Where new Partnerships are publicly announced only to fall into an abyss of oblivion and disappear, without another word mentioned by any executive still standing or sitting or sleeping.
Yes, this stock is for you.
$84 million in cash received. $20 million for CE ip. And about $64 million to take over control. And what do we as outside shareholders have left from that cash? And worse, has the value over those years gone up or down? Have the executives decreased or increased shareholders concerns or value?
Personally, not that my opinions are worth much. I think all would sell 75% to a 100% of their stock if LQMT ever were to hit 50 cents.
Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC luck.
Yes, the next time someone shouts hurry, hurry, over here the opportunity of a lifetime. Make sure you tell them to read this post and the replies too. Do your own DD before investing.

I have for a long time just wondered about where the few key players dwell, and what they do every day. Are they even real? I don't think they are crushing it by brainstorming at headquarters. EAGLE famously wondered about this all the time. Never did get an answer. In college, I remember students putting tape recorders on their desks and going to the beach, until the professors got wise and put tape players on their desks to give the lectures, and joined them., Today, with AI, no telling what is going on at Valencia. If anything.

Another week passes and LQMT’s share price is down 2.729% from 0.0513 cents to 0.0499 cents on extremely weak trading volumes and little interest. The same when LQMT moves up or down.
The share price languishes in a coma. Whether it hits the 0.02’s, 0.03’s, 0.04’s or 0.05’s it is still a good entry point for this dice roll.
LQMT is now into its 33rd consecutive month without a new 8K contract announcement for the order of parts.
There was a point in time where LQMT did the R&D, filed for a portfolio of patents and contracted out manufacturing. Now they do very little of either one. R&D was their only reason they were able to survive from going bankrupt imo. That protection too, now like they’re here today and gone tomorrow partnerships without any management commentary has evaporated.
It’s really simple: very little R&D = very little innovation = very little and even less to offer going forward.
One would think LQMT, bagged a whale before they would even consider cutting R&D! Not LQMT!
One would think they succeeded to be prosperous before cutting R&D! Not LQMT!
Once you cut R&D, you head in a direction towards obsolescence. Your competition becomes the future. Not a good picture going forward long term.
Once the brain goes. So too, does the body. Compare the 10k’s past and present if you need proof.
Yes, LL not only has put the kibosh on LQMT’s new open house and reduced the company to a landlord in LF CA. He has also accomplished sucking the wind out of their brains imo.
Who has the brains now, Yian? Or LQMT? Still don’t know?
Ok, I get it. Then look at it another way.
Over the past 8 years where have all of the so called posted great finds originated from? LQMT? Or China? Still don’t know? You’re kidding, right?”
Ok, I know it’s a tough one. Then realistically ask yourself, who has the greater potential to succeed? Yian? Or LQMT?
Still having a difficult time choosing?
Alright, regarding all of those theories you may have read about on this board and elsewhere. What is the basis for LQMT earning big bucks and fees and where do you think they originate from? LQMT? or China?
Think! The great maze wall of China!
Why? Because who else is doing the manufacturing! And the claimed selling to the whales?
If you don’t like the answers to all of the above, just don’t know or don't want to believe, you can thank both LQMT and LL. No matter what www you post on.
To be more accurate, you can really thank LL. He wears both hats. He is the revolving door you have to go through whether you enter or leave.
I don’t know about anyone else, but when I first learned of LL’s involvement and coming into LQMT, I thought, like most who post here or used to, that LL was throwing (us) LQMT a lifeline and not a harpoon!
I thought he was sending out a lifeboat and not a fishing net.
Instead of being the success spoken of with a great future. IMO, we have become the trophy on the wall, which has made yian, the company with the potential for a successful future.
And now all one ever reads is; I hope he throws us a bone. Well right now the only bones I see from abroad are our own scales.
It’s not all doom and gloom. There is the potential to have a breakthrough in medical auto industrial etc. but without domestic high volume manufacturing. Who holds the real purse strings? Who holds the chips, the dice, the cards, the chairs and the tables? LL. China.
Unless LQMT can find a way to find a domestic high volume manufacturer. IMO, it will always be very difficult to impossible to find a customer demanding high volume part contracts from LQMT, in auto medical and industrial.
To sum it up: For now, LQMT’s share price is holding in the low pennies. Climbing slowly from the upper 0.03’s and into the nickel’s again.
LQMT can break a dime within two more quarters.
Perhaps in 2025 or 2026 LQMT might succeed and if they ever do make it in 2024, all in it will be very thankful and glad that they did.

“So many prototypes so few customers.”
IMO, “When you say goodbye to R&D, you’re not exactly saying hello to the future.”
As always, my opinions, are always worth less than the price of a LQMT share. In fact they will always be worth less than the price of a LQMT share. But they would be worth a heck of a lot more if LQMT announced new contracts. :)
Good luck to all in LQMT.

Will someone with a few more marbles than I, explain to anyone who may have a few less marbles than I, why LQMT cannot collect a fee from a product made in China, sold in China and used in China? Especially hinges used for cell phones.
Thank you.
Hope, great finds, maze dots & dashes, theories and lollipops all sound great, but unfortunately are not very good strategies for almost a four decade old company to succeed.
I have a novel idea 💡! How about contracts!
Wow, what an original concept. Think I’m kidding. It’s been almost 3 years since any outside shareholder has seen one.
Obviously, hope and la la land dreams are factually just not working. I know, just look at the SP.

Very simple…
LQMT, after reading how superior your material is as stated on your www, and filled documents as you believe or testify to. With all of your pinions/gears and other pics of prototypes….
How about making a fricken manual can opener under your own Liquidmetal brand name, contract to sell them all across existing venues in America and your entire footprint and go head on and blow the competition away. It’s not a huge market, but one that should not be too difficult to enter into. You can then contract high volume parts and product for your own gain without watering down fees.
It will also give you consumer marketing exposure as well as commercial marketing exposure. You can next apply the same materials to simple battery powered electrical can openers.
You mean to say none of those sales reps approached the top ten manufacturers yet to show them the advantage of an amorphous metal can opener?
I could be wrong, but maybe the reasons for failure lie not with the material. :)
Without contracts and increasing revenues, please watch your step. The next step down could be 0.03 cents. Back on September 10th, it dipped to 0.0388 cents.
Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC and the sales reps luck.

Propaganda is not unique to just China. All have been subjected to propaganda from birth in many other countries as well. From television commercials, from educators, from dietitians, from employers, from political parties, from ideology and on and on and on. It’s rooted in power, hate and greed. Sort of sociopathic behavior. Until they find a cure for that type of behavior it will thrive and destroy civilization as we know it. It starts off small then festers. It becomes the fabric of our way of living. It seeks to control every aspect in life and has no room for peace. It usually leads to war and destruction.
And in many cases out of ignorance, to investing and holding onto a poor investment way too long.
For example: I can and often do focus on the realities of the failures of LQMT to succeed. I have what to excuse myself, to defend myself for holding on?
It sounds more palatable for all to say FOMO, when the real reason is just pure stupidity. Many at first invest out of ignorance, believing in what they hear and not what they know. We invest out of propaganda and hold on out of stupidity. While others seek to claim they are a genius.
Good luck to all who think they know better. The share price is still the same. It’s not a mirage. It’s not propaganda. And buying on dips and selling on small pops to lower the average loss per share is not propaganda. It’s a very sound strategy. A sound strategy for making a poor decision based on propaganda many many years ago.
Good luck to you.

Another week passes and LQMT’s share price is up 16.6% from 0.044 cents to 0.0513 cents on extremely weak trading volumes and little interest. The same when LQMT moves up or down.
The share price languishes in a coma. Whether it hits the 0.02’s, 0.03’s, 0.04’s or 0.05’s it is still a good entry point for this dice roll.
LQMT is now into its 32nd consecutive month without a new 8K contract announcement for the order of parts. Soon to enter 33 months next week.
The fact that LQMT’s plans, never panned out, forced outsiders to bear the burden of losses and not just financially on paper as in looking ahead.
Their failures makes it much more difficult for the share price to climb by limiting the areas of exploitation to sell products in the largest product area for success to date, and that area is in the field of CE.
Their failures also, caused LQMT to limit the areas where they can sell, to make any revenues regardless of any market endeavors geographically.
Not only has the company shrunk in size from micro cap to insignificant cap, their global world of potential wealth has also shrunk in an effort to survive. See the Eontec agreement. Thus eliminating any sales from China, the largest footprint they gave up. And if that agreement was terminated does anyone think China would allow LQMT to sell in China in a more favorable way? If the other TC over at apple has to genuflect to sell in China. You think little tc at LQMT would be treated any different?
Looking at the bigger picture as far as LL is concerned and the dismal performance of his impact on LQMT. It is irrelevant whether LL has to abide by the rule of Chinese law or not regarding foreign investment in LQMT, and it’s irrelevant if anyone doesn’t understand the reach of the ccp, as I don’t see China’s amorphous metal trading companies having success either in the world of bulk metal glass. The companies in the so called maze are also doing piss poor to succeed. Their stocks are down too. Take a good look at their share prices long term. Like LQMT, they are south of the border.
There was a point in time where LQMT did the R&D, filed for a portfolio of patents and contracted out manufacturing. Now they do very little of either one. R&D was their only reason they were able to survive from bankruptcy. That protection too, now like their here today gone tomorrow partnerships without any management commentary has evaporated.
Once the brain goes. So too, does the body. Compare the 10k’s past and present if you need proof.
Now all they have left imo, is the cash burn to extend time to succeed or go under. If they sell anything left of their IP right’s then its lights out. Or should I say light out.
They have cut operational costs to prolong the cash burn. The impacts on that over the past five years have not resulted in increasing shareholder value. Not because it’s a bad idea to cut expenses. But, only when it results in cutting back the potential to grow consistently I think is a very bad idea.
Recording a million dollars in sales for the year is not going to rocket up the share price even if costs to do it are reduced to zero dollars. Not with 900 million shares authorized.
Growing in sales for one year too, does not make a company, especially when the sales are still minuscule. It looks good, it is good, but not enough to get the share price to a dollar or more where shareholders want it to go. Getting to a dime or a quarter might be enough for all to sell. But not enough to claim success.
It’s not all doom and gloom. There is the potential to have a breakthrough in medical auto industrial etc.
LQMT has reported three consecutive quarterly increases in revenues. Although, not enough to attract the attention of other investors to add liquidity daily.
What I stated last week about LQMT reaching the 0.03’s that has come to pass this week…
“Short term we can still go into the 0.03’s and unfortunately we may see that very soon. “
For now, LQMT’s share price is holding in the low pennies. Climbing slowly from the upper 0.03’s and into the nickel’s again.
LQMT can break a dime within two more quarters.
Perhaps in 2025 or 2026 LQMT might succeed and if they ever do make it in 2024, all in it will be very thankful and glad that they did.
I try to present a balanced view based on the facts not on the emotions of anyone hyping or bashing LQMT. I believe I nailed it correctly. This board has had it correct past and present from potential to expectations to hope to FOMO.

“So many prototypes so few customers.”
“When you say goodbye to R&D, you’re not exactly saying hello to the future.” Especially when one has to prostitute the company by selling their R&D to avoid bankruptcy and then depends on others to obtain new results of research and development. In effect you have less IP of value.
Pay attention to the 10K.

"LQMT needs to reap the profits per parts after the manufacturing costs." So simple, so true. So hard to do. Furthermore, those underlying agreements that define how LQMT gets paid, were agreements LL negotiated with himself, and can be cancelled, modified, or just ignored accordingly.

Not someone sold! But someone or somones as in more than one may have sold. (Excuse the grammar.)
Between 12:30pm and 3:06pm there were 17 unanswered sell trades. Not one buy.. that’s what knocked it off of the 0.05’s.
Nevertheless the volumes are still not where they should be and indicate nothing. Except why sell at all? It was not to knock off the price of a few hundred thousand shares just bought to move it up to a nickel. Heck if I thought it was something big, i would have bought a million more shares. Not to see it go a few pennies higher.
Meaning there may be some people who want to roll the dice for many speculative reasons. The relaunch, the MIM order or perhaps a new customer or just a decent get in share price. When I see volumes of 10’s of millions, I’ll know something is cooking. But not this dribble.
On the bright side, that rawhide post was the best one I’ve read in a long while. Describes LL, his hired hands and the outside shareholders to a tee.
Good luck to all in LQMT.
