  Mad how every cork gay is friends with every other cork gay and if you didn't work at Apple or Eli Lilly or Telus you're never going to be friends with any of them.

  @BCLionsDen @DarshanVancity @Rogers I've been with Telus forever. On jobsites out of town people recommend Rogers. Too many dead spots. Also cable and internet was horrible with Telus. Connection wasn't strong enough to watch TV with glitching out. Telus support is no help, they'll try to cover the problem.

  Is the telecom sector about to trigger a massive investment supercycle? Nokia ($NOK) just dropped a bombshell by launching the industry’s first AI-native RAN platform, but this isn't just another isolated corporate press release. Yesterday's Q2 2026 earnings from Ericsson ($ERIC) and rapid shifts from major network operators confirm that the global telecom infrastructure Capex is undergoing a historic transformation. The smart money is quietly connecting some highly lucrative, asymmetric dots. 👇 1. What is AI-RAN & Why Does It Matter? Traditional Radio Access Networks (RAN) rely on incredibly expensive, rigid, proprietary hardware. AI-RAN virtualizes this entire architecture into software. Cell towers essentially become agile, edge-computing micro-datacenters. The hardware doesn't just route your calls; it processes AI workloads on the fly. The mastermind behind this is NVIDIA ($NVDA) and the AI-RAN Alliance (which unites NVIDIA, Nokia, Ericsson, SoftBank, and T-Mobile). Their goal? Push GPU-accelerated computing into every base station. Nokia claims this software-led, accelerated shift will boost spectral efficiency by 20% immediately, with a roadmap to >100% by 2028. For debt-laden operators, this means doubling network capacity without buying more multi-billion-dollar spectrum or replacing physical towers. 2. From Slides to Capex: What Ericsson's Q2 Earnings Just Confirmed We are officially moving past the "proof of concept" phase. Just yesterday, during Ericsson’s Q2 earnings call, outgoing CEO Börje Ekholm explicitly stated: "The next phase of AI is going to benefit our industry quite substantially... especially as physical AI develops." To fund this massive transition and offset inflationary hardware parts, Ericsson is actively raising prices on legacy contracts, paving the way for AI-RAN standard deployments. Global tier-1 carriers are already jumping in: > SK Telecom $SKM (South Korea) is launching a massive national AI-RAN pilot to test real-world physical AI applications (like automated factory robots and drone sensing). > T-Mobile US has partnered with NVIDIA, Ericsson, and Nokia to launch a Joint AI-RAN Innovation Center to standardize this tech in the US. > Telus (Canada) is deploying AI-powered network controllers to optimize spectral efficiency and slash tower power consumption. 3. The Derivative Play: AmpliTech ($AMPG) Nokia, Ericsson, and NVIDIA are massive, slow-moving ships. To find true market asymmetry, smart money looks for niche, highly-certified hardware enablers. To run software-heavy, GPU-driven AI-RAN, you still need highly advanced, open-standard (O-RAN) hardware on the ground to handle the high-frequency radio waves. Enter AmpliTech Group ($AMPG), a US-designed micro-cap manufacturing high-performance 64T64R Massive MIMO radios. In his latest discussions with Maxim Group (following up on my yesterday's post), the CEO highlighted a major strategic pivot that flipped the script for shareholders: > ATM Canceled: Completely terminating their dilutive at-the-market equity sales facility. > $10M Buyback: Launching a massive $10M stock repurchase program funded entirely by cash on hand, signaling to Wall Street that management believes the stock is heavily undervalued. > Strong Fundamentals: This move is backed by stellar Q1 results - revenue surged 48.6% YoY to $5.35M, while gross margins skyrocketed to 48% (up from 33% last year). As one of the very few US-designed, O-RAN certified hardware providers with a clean balance sheet, they are uniquely positioned to capture domestic infrastructure contracts as US telcos upgrade to GPU-accelerated AI-RAN architecture. Summary When giants like NVIDIA, Nokia, Ericsson, SK Telecom, and Telus validate a trend, the hardware supply chain wins first. AI-RAN is setting up to be one of the most under-the-radar infrastructure plays of late 2026. Are you sticking to legacy giants, or hunting for asymmetric risk-reward in the micro-cap space?

  @TELUS On July 9, 2026 at 21:50 hrs your idiot driver behind the wheel of V242400, license plate CRG 7671 exited his left lane and cut me off while I was driving on the right lane at NB Centre St and 3 Ave SW in Calgary! Very safe and professional…

  @TELUSsupport @TELUS do you want to fix the cable issues today? Or shall we wait until the game is over and I’ve missed it? How hard it is to supply a steady service for people who are paying for it? Get a grip!

  - Confirms $AMZN as a customer for SATCOM - Confirms $IBM and $GOOG as customers for AmpliTech's cryogenic LNAs for quantum computing R&D - TELUS LOI of $40 million already exceeded - New purchase orders from new major MNOs to be announced Insanely bullish.

  $AMPG's CEO just confirmed $AMZN as a customer, alongside CPI and Viasat. Not only that. He mentions $SPCX too. Where? An on-camera interview with Maxim Group's senior analyst. Almost nobody has watched it yet. He's asked where AmpliTech sits in satellite. And the CEO answers with a customer list, verbatim: "Companies like Viasat, Amazon, CPI, all those guys are our customers". Ground stations. Per him, pretty much all the high-end ones. Amazon's logo has been on AMPG's customer wall for a while. What's new is the CEO binding it to the ground-station segment, out loud, on the record. THE MECHANISM almost everyone misses The next 30 seconds of the same answer: "In the past, this was not absolutely necessary". Analog signals forgave mediocre front ends. TV got through anyway. Now everything is digital data. And bits don't forgive: every dB of noise is throughput you lose. Translation: AmpliTech didn't chase this market. The market's physics drifted toward the one thing this company has built since day one: the lowest-noise front end. THE MULTIPLIER A ground station isn't one antenna. It's an antenna farm: arrays of dishes, because arrays buy you range. Now run the CEO's own market math: LEOs launching, MEOs launching, SpaceX launching, Amazon launching. Every constellation needs gateways. Every gateway is a farm. Every dish in every farm needs a front end that lives or dies on noise figure. Constellations compete with each other. Farms just multiply. That's the pick-and-shovel position: you don't need to pick the winning constellation. You sell to every farm. And one precision that matters: SpaceX is named as a market force launching satellites. It is NOT on the customer list. The list is Viasat, Amazon and CPI. THE PEDIGREE This isn't a new lane for $AMPG. It's the founding one. Low-noise amplifiers are the company's original DNA, designed and built in the US for decades. Quantum is the lottery ticket. Satcom is the day job. And the day job just caught a demand supercycle. On terminals: high-speed Ku and Ka band, the CEO's words, "we're in the thick of that". THE PATTERN Same interview: Telus, named. IBM and Google, named. Now Viasat, Amazon and CPI, placed in context. The anonymous era of this story is ending one name at a time. "Lowest noise figures in the industry" is the company's claim, on the record. SpaceX: named as a market, not as a customer. Satcom rides on constellation capex continuing. Cycles wobble. The front end is the toll booth of the ground segment. AMPG was collecting at that booth before the road got crowded. Now count the cars. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  @TELUSsupport @TELUS if there is a known issue with @SamsungMobile phones not receiving calls, pls issue a statement rather than leave customers with no resolution.

  @TELUS @TELUSsupport is asking for a driver's license and pin that were set up in the 90's before they'll cancel service and say there's no way around it, wtaf? All this for a client moved overseas and not able to use the service! They'll take money for no service!
