  This is the part that should make shorts nervous. Instead of covering today, shorts actually added another few percent to their position on $AMPG. They're doubling down, not getting out. And here's the kicker: the cost to borrow just jumped from ~35% to ~70%. ✅ 48% gross margins (up from 33%) ✅ Debt-free, ~$18M+ cash ✅ ~$200M market cap (sub-$1B) ✅ Revenue grew 165% last year ✅ FY2026 guidance of $50M+ ✅ Only American 64T64R AI-RAN radio ✅ Deployed at Telus (Tier-1 carrier) ✅ Strategic Partner in DoD-funded Open6G hub (next to NVIDIA, Dell, Qualcomm) ✅ NASA, NVIDIA, Amazon, IBM, Boeing, Lockheed, Northrop, L3Harris as customers ✅ Cryogenic LNAs for quantum (IBM, Google PoC) ✅ Space/SATCOM exposure as the sector re-rates ✅ Founder-led, CEO hasn't sold a share ✅ Short float ~35%, borrow fee spiking Let me explain why that matters. The short fee is what it costs to borrow shares to short. It spikes when demand to short outstrips the shares available to lend. A jump from 35% to 70% tells you the borrowable pool is drying up, fewer and fewer shares left to short, and brokers charging a fortune for the ones that remain. So now the shorts are in a worse spot on two fronts. They're bleeding ~70% annualized just to hold the position open, and there's less room left to add. That's a setup that pressures them to cover, not relax. Adding into that, at that cost, while fundamentals improve? That's a tough hand to keep playing. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  @TELUS They don't recognize my email, password is incorrect and ask me to reset it. Have done that several times but it never seems to work I have an email today "Koodo Apple Stream" and was able to get in from my "save e-mail address and password but not when I type Koodo for access?

  Hey @TELUS @TELUSsupport Today I spent over 50 minutes on the phone just to add ONE channel to my TV package. It’s 2026. We have AI agents, autonomous vehicles, and instant digital banking. Yet a basic account change still requires nearly an hour with customer service. This isn’t a technology problem—it’s a customer experience problem. Do better. #TelecomMonopoly #LackOfCompetition Cc: @CRTCeng

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS They left my senior mom without a landline phone for 9 months because someone hit the box in her alley and they couldn’t be bothered to repair it. One day I was on hold for 4 hours to get through to a service agent. 🤬

  @gatorgar Think long-term. In 3 to 4 years you won't be getting your phone service from AT&t or Telus or Bell or Rogers or whatever you'll get it from starlink. The AI that you use will be in starlink satellites. The taxi you take will be a robo taxi from Tesla. Tesla robots will be mowing your lawn too

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS Yikes!! I just moved to Telus from Shaw/Rogers to get much lower rates and fibre-optic service.

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS @TELUSBusiness has charged me $220 to break my contract after 7 years and still haven’t cancelled my service or the fees. I haven’t been in my business space since April. I’m certainly going to reconsider my other business contract with them

  @JonFraserTF @TELUS The telecom business is in decline. They cannot easily raise prices given global trends and Cdn consumers seeing global pricing. I live rurally and pay the same rate as a customer in an urban area for lessor service as coverage is gone outside of town. Good luck with Bell!
