  This is the most important framing of $AMPG I've seen, and it's the distinction almost everyone misses. And, obviously, comes from a guy called "calm". Let me build on it, because once you see the full picture, it's hard to unsee. Everyone wants to call today a short squeeze. But the point here is sharper: a squeeze fades, a re-rating doesn't. If today was purely shorts covering, it's mechanical. They buy back, the pressure releases, and it bleeds out over the next few days. Nothing fundamental changed. But if today was the market starting to recognize the actual business, that's a completely different animal. That's a beginning, not a ******. And the reason I lean toward the second is simple: look at what the shorts are actually betting against. For months their thesis was that AMPG wouldn't execute, that revenue wouldn't show up, that it keeps drifting lower. The problem is the opposite kept happening, and the last earnings call made that impossible to ignore. Let me walk through it. Start with the core. AMPG is the only American company commercializing the 64T64R Massive MIMO AI-RAN radio, the physical layer open AI-RAN runs on. Already deployed at Telus, a Tier-1 carrier. Right beside Samsung. 2 out of 5 radios from TELUS. 48% gross margins, up from 33%. Debt-free. That alone breaks the "won't execute" thesis. Then the call got louder. COO Jorge Flores on Telus (detective): "We continue to receive orders against that LOI as well". And on the quarter: "We are projecting Q2 to be definitely much higher than Q1." Q1 was already $5.35M, up 48.6%. So the ramp the bears said wouldn't materialize is not only materializing, it's accelerating. Then CEO Fawad Maqbool dropped the part nobody's pricing. On new carriers: "We've had very productive discussions with major MNOs, and it's more likely they'll go straight to POs, no LOIs. We'll be announcing those in the next quarter or so." . Major operators, plural, potentially skipping the letter-of-intent stage and going straight to firm purchase orders. That's a stronger commitment than how Telus even started. And then he pointed abroad: "Our success being the largest O-RAN deployment in America is helping us reach further into Europe and other areas of the world.". That's not empty talk. AMPG already signed a 5-year supplier agreement with Fujitsu Spain covering Europe, Africa and the Middle East. The international runway is already open. Also, working closely with UK funded hub, being the only american one there. Now stack the optionality on top, the parts you don't even pay for at this valuation. Quantum: AMPG makes the cryogenic amplifiers that superconducting quantum computers need for qubit readout, and has shipped proof-of-concept units to names like IBM and Google. Honest framing: optionality, not revenue yet, and it serves the superconducting branch specifically. But it's real, patented, and American. Space: back in December 2024, AMPG shipped prototype amplifiers to an unnamed "Fortune 50 satellite systems provider" building a LEO constellation, tens of thousands of units expected. The only Fortune 50 building its own LEO network is Amazon, with Project Kuiper. Then Amazon showed up on AMPG's customer wall. Honest framing again: the wall confirms Amazon is a customer, not specifically that it's the LEO buyer, that link is my deduction. But the breadcrumbs stack cleanly, and with SpaceX now public, the entire space sector just got validated. So put it all together. This isn't a meme pump. It's a company that has spent months stacking catalysts: a flagship carrier deployment, accelerating revenue, expanding margins, new carriers near firm POs, a European channel opening, and free optionality in quantum and space. With customers like: 🔹 NVIDIA 🔹 Amazon 🔹 IBM 🔹 Boeing 🔹 Lockheed Martin 🔹 Northrop Grumman 🔹 L3Harris 🔹 NASA Eventually the market stops ignoring that. That's why the shorts are in real trouble. They're not fighting momentum anymore. They're short against improving fundamentals on multiple fronts at once, and time now works against them. Every quarter of execution makes their thesis weaker, not stronger. Honest caveat: a re-rating isn't guaranteed, and one green day doesn't confirm it. The CEO's PO and Europe comments are forward-looking, his words, not signed deals yet, so watch for the actual PRs. The real test is whether this holds and builds, or fades like a pure cover. But the framing is right. A squeeze is a moment. A re-rating is a trend. Shorts betting against a falling story is one trade. Shorts betting against a company that's actually getting better, across telecom, defense, space and quantum, is a completely different and far more dangerous one. I think we might be watching the second one begin. Still sub $1B. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  @garymasonglobe @TELUS Telus doesn't want your busiess. I use @heybabbl - local, way cheaper, no contracts, service without call centers

  @Darrenthiel2 @jodyvance @TELUS The main issue of course is the Triopoly in Canada (plus Videotron a bit) and the excuse of "expensive to service vast Canadian geography." 50% truth. But the main reason is the lack of sufficient competition.

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS I switched to @FreedomMobile for home and mobile last year. Cut my bill in half and don't pay roaming fees. The service has been the same as Rogers I had before. Highly recommend

  I hope the $ASTS boys like dilution because you're going to need a lot of it to fund your ambitions. While ASTS has a small lead on broadband connectivity their real advantage is spectrum access via carrier exclusivity and they've locked up nearly 60 mobile network operator partners covering over 3 billion subscribers AT&T, Verizon, Vodafone, Rakuten, Telus, Bell, etc. SpaceX operates more than 9,000 satellites around 60% of everything in orbit. ASTS has roughly 9 including recent launches, and is trying to accelerate to about one launch a month to hit 2026 targets. Analysts are skeptical it can sustain this. Each BlueBird Block 2 is a 6,100 kg spacecraft, far more complex and expensive per unit than a Starlink satellite and AST can't launch anything close to the pace of Musk. SpaceX owns the rockets while ASTS has to buy rides on Falcon 9, New Glenn, etc. SpaceX's hardware iteration speed is, as one analysis put it, a real and durable advantage, and if their next gen satellites deliver on data performance, the competitive gap narrows while the constellation scale gap stays insurmountable. SpaceX already took the biggest carrier prize in the US being T-Mobile. So the carrier moat cuts both ways. SpaceX obviously has access to vast capital after IPO, with Starlink generating ~$10.4 billion of revenue in 2025. ASTS is pre-real-revenue at scale ($70.9 million in 2025) and funding itself with convertible debt and dilution. Do the bulls have an answer to this?

  He's right, but letting Cohere and Telus grift taxpayers isn't going to fix it

  @TELUS @DanielHill71510 Your “reduced service levels” are the reason you are losing customers. Just saying.

  @guyfelicella @TELUS *he messaged. It’s all AI and off shore, now. No direct route to inside support. I’ve spent weeks, perhaps months, of my time on hold/waiting for technical support/technicians/troubleshooting. It’s never consistently delivered the services I’ve paid for. It’s brutal

  Was it too late to buy $AXTI or $SIVE at $30, after they'd already run 600%? The answer is obvious: no, it wasn't. The people who stayed out "because it had already gone up too much" missed most of the move. Lately people ask me "Is it too late to buy $AMPG"? I haven't sold a single share. And that alone answers the question. Because if I truly believed it was too late to buy, what I'd really be telling you is that it's time to sell. They're the same sentence with a different face. "Too late to buy" and "time to sell" mean exactly the same thing. And I'm not selling. So I can't tell you it's too late without my own actions calling me a liar. Here's what people get backwards. "Late" and "early" feel like they're about the price. About the chart. About whether you caught the move or missed it. They're not. Not for a company at this stage. It comes down to one thing only: whether you trust what the company actually is. Think about AXTI and SIVE. The people who sold or never entered "because it had already run 600%" were staring at the chart, not the business. The ones who held or bought were looking at the thesis. If you trusted the company, $30 was just a stop on a much longer road. If you didn't, you thought it was late, and you'd have thought it was late at any price. Because that's the trap: if you don't trust the company, it was late at $3, it's late at $8, and it'll still feel late at $20. The chart was never your real question. Your real question was always whether you believed in it, just disguised as "timing". So instead of asking me about timing, ask yourself whether you believe the thesis. Let me tell you why I do. This is the only American company commercializing the 64T64R AI-RAN radio, the physical hardware the open AI-RAN future runs on. It's already deployed at Telus, a Tier-1 carrier. It's a Strategic Partner in the DoD-funded Open6G hub, in the top tier next to NVIDIA, Dell and Qualcomm, with its radio already tested alongside NVIDIA's Aerial software. That's not a meme. That's a real position in a layer the US is actively trying to re-shore for national security. Underneath that sits a real business: 48% gross margins, debt-free, revenue growing fast, defense primes and NASA on the customer wall. And stacked on top, for free, genuine optionality in quantum and in space. The kind of upside you don't even pay for at this valuation. I won't insult you by pretending it's risk-free. It isn't. There's customer concentration, there's dilution, there's execution risk. I've said all of it openly. A company is never a sure thing. But "is it too late" was never the question that matters. The question that matters is this: do you understand this company well enough to hold it through the noise, the FUD, the red days, and the people screaming that you're late? Because that conviction is the only thing that decides whether you actually capture the story or get shaken out halfway. So here's my honest answer, the one I can stand behind: It's late if you don't trust the company. It's early if you do. And the only person who can answer which one you are is you. Do the work. Read the filings. Build your own conviction, or don't. But don't outsource it to a chart, and don't outsource it to me. I just know which side I'm on. And I haven't sold a share. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡
