Will UXIN hit $3's?
And LQMT notes
Good morning,
I like UXIN to bounce between $3 and $4 in the coming weeks. I’m in this from Friday and looking to add today.
LQMT same plan, goal on the bulk of my position is $.10+, ideally $.30-$.40. Here’s my latest notes on why I like it long-term.
Here are my notes on why I’ve been trading around a core long-term LQMT stock for years. There’s no guarantee I’ll get the big payday I’m looking for but when it comes to looking for a monster trade, there just aren’t many $60 million companies out there with direct connections to Apple and Tesla.
The metal alloys owned by Liquidmetal were developed by a research team at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and are harder and lighter than aluminum and titanium. In August of 2010, Apple paid Liquidmetal $20 million and entered into an exclusive agreement to license the use of Liquidmetal’s alloys. Shares of LQMT went from as low as $.08 that summer to $1.74.
Late in 2015, Charlie Kuehmann left Apple to join Tesla. Liquidmetal and Charlie worked together for years at Crucible which is jointly owned by Apple and Liquidmetal.
In 2016 Liquidmetal and Eontec entered into a “parallel license agreement” (PLA) that Lugee Li, the owner of Eontec, purchased from Liquidmetal for $63 million. The agreement is more than 3X what Apple paid Liquidmetal ($20 million) in 2010. It states Eontec and Liquidmetal will (exclusive of consumer electronics) share patents, R&D, and split territories. Li and Eontec have worked for years with Tesla on the door Model X door latch.
At the end of 2020 Liquidmetal changed the wording regarding consumer electronics on their 10-K: for years it read “we will not pursue the application of our bulk Liquidmetal alloys in the consumer electronics field.” Now the wording changes to read “We will continue to identify and pursue opportunities in the consumer electronics field that do not violate our license agreement with Apple.” For many years prior the 10-K read “will not pursue”. Apple makes it clear that Apple has exclusive rights for all consumer electronics products. So, what wouldn’t violate the Apple license agreement regarding consumer electronics? Answer, an Apple product.
Tony Chung is named CEO in 2021 and his stock options are tied to an uplisting to the Nasdaq / NYSE exchange or $1 lock-up.
Then, in January 2022, Yihao, which is part of Eontec, signed a 5 year, non-exclusive, “Manufacture Supply Agreement” with Liquidmetal.
Late in 2023 Chung filed a Form 4 with the SEC in which he accumulated 939,100 shares between $.049-.$064. In this time frame Liquidmetal appears to have received $100,000 for a pinion gear prototype which I speculate could lead to a whale contract. The Evie Ring is announced using Liquidmetal, which sells very well on Black Friday and is up for FDA approval. And Apple’s flagship iPhone 15 was upgraded from aluminum to titanium because titanium is lighter and stronger. One can only speculate what’s next?!
