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.
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.
“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.
Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC luck.
The new ring relaunch starts next Wednesday.

"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.
Great post, FYI

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.

Just $4,000 has raised the share price 10%.
Meaning it’s possible not probable, another $8,000 of selling can send it below .04.
It’s why I state the share price means zip without high volume trading. It’s hard to gauge the true value, when a few dollars can manipulate the share price.
Without interest in the stock liquidity will not grow.
Without executives securing contracts one of it will matter. The one’s responsible for this are the one’s operating the company.
I could be wrong but I think contracts are the answer and until that day, blog updates would help.
Good luck to all in LQMT.

It’s not how low it can go. Rather odd that the share price would touch the 0.03’s just before a product relaunch.
Really ridiculous since they are related by their success or failure. The extreme low number of customers existing in LQMT’s portfolio depends heavily on the ring’s success to raise the pps of Liquidmetal.
And although LQMT can go to a penny a share as is a real possibility with this high risk dice roll. The cash assets for now and the yet to be reported income probably will keep the share price above the two’s for now.
If you don’t think the share price is going to go above a dime right now. IMO, buying in at a penny or two pennies or three pennies is not going to make much difference.
It will, only if LQMT increases their customer pipeline and not just their prototype pipeline of dreams to dazzle unsuspecting space cadets.
Perhaps the next great find will be real. Perhaps the ridiculous maze will become amazing, not just for anyone who is in the land of Oz, but all over LQMT’s real footprint.
Wish I too, were clean and sober from this abyss. Perhaps too, one day I will be.
It’s great to see a different point of view. It’s kind of like soap separating the oil from the water. It helps one to see a much clearer picture.
Especially when those points of views have boundaries and are focused on LQMT.
Good luck to you.

“Short term we can still go into the 0.03’s and unfortunately we may see that very soon.”
Researchfyi.
Today LQMT hit the 0.03’s.
In the same post mentioned, is my opinion that long term the share price can move higher within the next 6 months as well.
All depends on the integrity of what was stated by the ceo during the March 2024 no q&a call.
If one believes in the spin of the call, then they decide to roll the dice whether the sp is in the 0.02’s or the 0.05’s. Keep in mind the reality of the 10K, and the fact that LQMT will soon be into its 33rd consecutive month without a new contract announcement for product sales via an 8K form. And increases of income reported from the ring or the MIM orders were never explained and are yet to be explained.
As another astute poster pointed out, there were no fees reported in the past 6 months. The $$$ is recorded as income from product sales with no contractual agreement recorded in the 10Q’s.
Good luck to in LQMT.
Wish TC luck.

EVER READ “THE SECRET”? The idea is that the imprecise quantum wave function that is the future, which collapses into the specific reality which becomes the present, is impressionable. You can influence the specific reality that becomes the present by aligning yourself inwardly with certain details of a desired future.
Once I read a story about a guy with a red bracelet that reminded him of something. As I read it I stopped and remarked to myself about how neat that was. I thought about how Kabbalah believers wear red bracelets, how Madonna had one. I realized I liked the idea and could see it on myself as a potent reminder of life and power and meaning. Then I went on reading. Two days later at a nonprofit event I and many people donated. We were rewarded with our choice of several things including a red “friendship bracelet” that was precisely what I had envisioned. Needless to say I took it.
Ages ago in college I was designing my room in my fraternity house and painting it. In my mind I saw a green carpet that would look like grass. Bright green and vivid. I loved the thought and regretted that as a poor college kid I couldn’t go to the store and buy it. Later that week as I walked through the campus I took an uncommon route and right next to a university dumpster was a roll of bright green vivid carpet. It looked brand new but had a few spots of white paint on it like someone painted a wall without a drop cloth. A friend with a truck helped me get it home and I loved that carpet for years.
HERE’S WHAT IM PROPOSING, and this is a call for all hands on deck.
Let’s use the power we have. Let’s envision, and know and see Liquidmetal in glory! Stock price through the roof! Families and friends blessed! Abundance, vindication, the halcyon days here to stay!
We’ve tried everything else. My advice is for you not just to think about it but to align a deep and almost unconscious envisioning with LQMT to the moon. Ponder how amazing it is. Feel what a surprise, what a delight, what a comfort, what a thrill.
The universe is always on a precipice like a falling tree. It can be nudged in any direction by consciousness that already lives in a certain future. Let’s do this and create some wealth in our lives

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 low to mid 0.04’s. That can change with more delays in the prospect of increasing revenues from ring sales.
The week of 9-17-24 and thereafter are going to be big indicators in LQMT’s SP direction.
LQMT can break a dime within two more quarters.
This week’s trading range is kind of in sync with my thoughts. Not too far from the 0.03’s or the 0.05’s. Or a dime if you look out 4 to 6 months from now.
Excluding the ring, I’m looking for another announcement from TC between now and the end of the year about a new deal. This speculation is based on his words back in late march.
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.
Its looking much better for momentum to turn around the share price in 2025.

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.
Imo, Whatever trust or confidence shareholders have of TC, will probably end, if he can’t match the 2023 end of year outlook he talked about for 2024, with the actual performance of LQMT. Thus increasing shareholder value, by inking two more deals he alluded to, to accomplish that goal.
Smart investors want to see contracts and profitability. They want to see continuous growth in the sales of amorphous metal or any other material. It is important to show growth in sales.
In essence, is his rhetoric for real or just another typical 20 year LQMT spin speech of Kicking the Can down the road.
Right now in this post I am giving TC the benefit of the doubt. I better feel my forehead :)
Seeing cash burn cut to zero with
Minuscule revenues received annually is just as bad as using FOMO to invest or hold on.
IN OTHER WORDS…..
LQMT can cut the operating costs to zero. It doesn’t mean squat with piss poor increasing revenues.
I think all would rather see increasing operational costs and explosive upward trending sales!
No matter what my opinions are, I don’t believe TC purchased his shares to watch them tank or to temporarily pop the share price. He purchased the shares at the right time. The low share price was just a coincidence imo.
Good luck to all in LQMT.
Wish TC luck.

The FDA is notoriously slow...and corrupt. Newcomers have to pay their dues by beginning to play the game...once admitted to the club, they are set for life. Now should a certain person of Scotch fame whose uncle had a bad day in Dallas become head of the NIH or CDC or FDA then yes, the corrupted will be jumping ship like rats trying to get off a burning boat. Perhaps,,and I hope so, LQMT can grease the cracks in the side boards with liquid metal and remain afloat. Device makers so seem to get a better deal from the FDA than if they were producing a medicine. That's good.
So the preliminary production and sales run proved a huge market could be within grasp. As we have seen, the growing pains and hurdles have slowed the progress but not dampened the spirit.
It is spirit and hope that keeps one feeling truly alive. I don't see Movano like the walking dead stumbling and fumbling hollering "Morgan". At least not yet! However, this glimpse of hope has at least kept LQMT from completely entering the Twilight Zone.
There should be a huge surge in pps after Movano gets the green light and then LQMT should respond in similar fashion albeit less dramatic unless a huge unexpected order arrives. Now that would ring in the new year quite nicely.

There may have been some issues of claims vs actual results as customers also experienced. You grease a palm, you get approval and integrity issues costs someone’s life, there will be a whole lotta splainen to do in court for millions. End result. Bye bye ring and increasing revenues without a new rabbit pulled out of LQMT’s hat.
It’s better to wait and make sure the hardware and the software satisfy the FDA, then to have them rush through a device with some glitches that someone may depend on to live.
You better have it right when you are asking for medical approval for a product like this to be used for continuous monitoring. It’s not like a blood pressure cuff one off. It’s not just about women once you seek medical approval for any device.
Presenting data of a technology is one thing. Incorporating that technology for sales and profit has far more serious drawbacks, especially if the product doesn’t test well under various circumstances.
As much as we want approval like yesterday. Let’s wait this out. The ring company apparently has some serious questions and concerns to answer to. I don’t think the delay was politically motivated. I hope they resolve the concerns quickly. Otherwise from what I am reading, their climb up to success just got steeper as competition are offering a better product according to analysts without FDA approval.
I would like to think that the motivation from analysts were biased. But let’s face it. So far has the ring put out a product that backed up there hype? The first rollout says no. I hope for all who invested in the ring and in LQMT that the second rollout is the ticket!
Good luck to you,
I do agree with your view, many times it would appear grease is what got some products approved. But remember many got unapproved as well. The latter more painful when banned.

I see a lot of potential misunderstandings here.
1) Movano got swamped with orders last year and couldn’t begin to fill them fast enough. Therefore they have hired a turnkey manufacturer that will also manage shipping. They have stockpiled parts but will of course begin very slowly, which means without PR. Once their feet are under them they will ramp with PRs heading toward Christmas. Makes a ton of sense to me.
2) It appears the FDA clearance may be for an entirely different product than the Evie ring. EvieMed will be for men and women and will be a unique product. God help us if it’s not Liquidmetal (could go either way in my mind since the design will be different to differentiate the men/women ring from the girls only one.
3) All Evie rings sold have supposedly been right on the cusp of getting the FDA designation, so existing ones should work.
4) It’s true that lots of people were disappointed with the Evie rings vs. Oura and others, including the data of their Apple Watches. Part of this was Evie’s fault for making people think their devices were Uber accurate. I think they needed a lot more data and quite a number of software updates. Keep in mind Movano was sinking in the stock market, had limited cash, was 1-2 years behind their projections and desperately needed to get their product out there. It led them to put the ring in the market before it was fully baked. The massive investments and partnerships into Movano over the last 6 months justify their strategy of doing something, anything, to get rolling. The new approach this fall is with massive capitalization and a long and clear path forward with heavy hitters. Bottom line: the mistakes of last year should be behind them.

Back in the day at the end of the year 2022, way before the ring was on anyone’s radar here, Forbes did a brief story on the ring. It was upbeat about the prospects for the future as told by the CEO of the ring company.
Even Forbes understood what the new ring company was trying to do in challenging the competition.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewwilliams/2022/12/28/movano-announces-evie-smart-ring-made-for-women/
Fast forward to today and unfortunately the ring company did not make it to Forbes best of smart rings list of the top rings to buy. The article came out just four days ago.
All of the rings are made with titanium. So it is not the metal that determines the advantage right now although that too would make a great selling point once the real issues of software are settled.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbes-personal-shopper/article/best-smart-rings/
There are other reputable analytical sites as well, who do not show the ring making the top five ring list with no mention at all about the new ring.
The post I have written was never ever intended to be negative in anyway, otherwise I would have included the reputable websites not listing the new ring at all.
The post was open minded to show points of view pro and con. Which in my humble opinion I think I achieved. It’s called reality and it is supported by the share prices of both companies as well.
Only those who cannot discern the difference between a negative post, a positive post and a post pointing out reality will always have their panties in a snit and negatively comment.
Smell the coffee, see the sunshine. Stop looking for the dark gray clouds all of the time.
In my posts, there are mentions many times regarding the potential of LQMT inching up slowly based on increasing ring sales. Those are my points of views, my opinions, they are positive.
Good luck to all in LQMT.

Another week passes and LQMT’s share price is down 13.644% from 0.0535 cents to 0.0462 cents on extremely weak trading volumes and little interest. The same when LQMT moves up or down.
The share price languishes in a coma. There is a theory based on real connections to another company’s ability to expand sales and income to LQMT. Thus reversing the long term downward trend in LQMT’s share price. There is also the yet to be announced terms of the MIM order for a medical instrument. The terms of ring revenues also, have yet to be explained.
As another poster mentioned. It just might shed light on the maze theory by joshuaeyu in which monies received by yian from a product being directly ordered by a company other than LQMT, results in LQMT receiving $$$$ added into their bottom line, from the manufacturing partner and not directly from the customer placing the order. That would be huge if that were to be the case with the ring company. Just might account for why no purchase order agreements or 8K’s of a contract were inked or let linked publicly to the ring company. I can’t say the same about the MIM situation, since LQMT indicated they received an order for a medical instrument directly. Unless of course, I misinterpreted the blog statement.
LQMT is now into its 32nd consecutive month without a new contract announcement for the order of parts.
LQMT has reported three consecutive quarterly increases in revenues. Although not enough to attract the attention of other investors. At least it is headed in a positive direction. Just remember one small contract does not make a company. The proof of that are not found in anything I state, but in the actual share price and trading volumes.
IMO it looks like the growth can continue and the share price can keep going higher long term. Keep in mind LQMT has to have increasing revenues and they need more customers to do it. “
Short term we can still go into the 0.03’s.
For now, LQMT’s share price is holding in the low pennies. Climbing slowly from the low to mid 0.04’s. And again barely reaching on anemic volumes the low 0.05’s. In line of what lies ahead.
