  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?

  Oh, dear. Is there a massive internet outage in Canada? Cogeco, Bell, Rogers, Telus, Teksavvy and more are reporting problems. Check Downdetector. Everything seems to have started around 2pm EDT:

  The most overlooked part of the Maxim interview isn't Telus $T.TO ordering more than expected and wanting more and more configs. It's what Fawad said about SCALING. Because he casually answered the number one bear question about $AMPG. And almost nobody noticed it. THE BEAR QUESTION. "How does a company that counted ~47 employees in its last annual report deliver Tier-1 carrier volumes?" Fair question. Every micro-cap hardware story lives or dies on it. Now listen to the CEO answer it, unprompted. THE MATH HE VOLUNTEERED. "You're talking about tens of thousands of radios that are going to be used by any single MNO at a time". That's his own sizing of ONE carrier win. Thousands of radios per month or per year. He's not scared of that number. He designed the company around it. THE MODEL. LNAs and defense-grade radios: designed and built in the US. Commercial radio volume: contract manufacturers, structured so AMPG can, his words, "scale up when the demand goes high, and we can scale down when the demand goes low". And the punchline, verbatim: "we don't create a tremendous amount of overhead, and we're cost-effective enough to provide a very large quantity in relatively little time". Translation: capacity is RENTED, not owned. No factories to build before the revenue shows up. No factory overhead bleeding through down-cycles. POs land, capacity scales up. POs pause, costs scale down. The giants carry factories through winters. AMPG carries designs. THE SECOND SCALING LAYER almost everyone missed. Every MNO runs different spectrum. That used to be the moat protecting incumbents: a custom radio per carrier, years per win. AMPG spent its R&D budget killing that moat: "Each MNO has a different frequency... but the beauty of our product is that it's configurable". And then the sentence that IS the thesis: "As soon as that adoption happens, it's just going to spread". One carrier win isn't a contract. It's a template. THE THIRD LAYER: where this goes. Asset-light capacity + revenue scaling = operating leverage. The CEO connected the dots himself: "Revenue has been increasing. Next stage is profitability". That's not hopium sequencing. That's the mechanical consequence of the model, if the revenue holds. AND IT'S ALREADY BEEN STRESS-TESTED. This isn't a whiteboard. This model has already put 2,000+ radios into a Tier-1 network. It's shipping daily against orders that EXCEED the $40M LOI. And it absorbed a real shock this year: war-related logistics interruptions, disclosed by the CEO himself. Status: back on track. A capacity model that survives a war disruption during its first scaling year got tested by reality, not by PowerPoint. Everyone watched the Telus reveal. The quiet part was the CEO explaining how a micro-cap absorbs a Tier-1's demand without building a single factory. Market cap: micro. Capacity: elastic. That's not an accident. That's the design. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡

  The local Telus office wouldnt even interview me. The other job starts in late July when I was supposed to take place in a talent competition. As always ive been really surprised by how things are working out, but every time recognizing more and more ways to prevent similar problems. Even better is posting online so other people can know similar information

  Has anyone’s data not been working with Telus lately? We switched back from Virgin because virgin was garbage, and now I’m having issues with Telus again. 🙄

  @Durmo2010 @TELUSsupport Telus support is non existent. I had too many terrible experiences with their so called support.

  @FinnStockinger Interestingly, Telus is one of the first telecoms to establish a quantum network.

  Yes. I watched a client, who became a friend and then helped us start our business in 2003, get decimated by TELUS when they started cutting off the residuals to privately owned stores. They finally just gave up because the "new" make the sale structure with no residuals was insane. I'm sorry to say it, but I _KNEW_ that's where the BPOS then O365 then M365 then Azure residual/remuneration structures would go. All of those big signing bonuses in the beginning are gone now. Large hosting houses were decimated selling M365 a shell of their former selves good people out the door. Why? The answer is obvious, and known by us, but for over libations. ;-) This particular Cloud First IT Company is doing what any company like it needs to do to survive: SELL SELL SELL! Most Cloud First customers, not clients, have no interest in the managed support fees. They'll happily open a ticket and strangle the neck of the Cloud First IT Company when M365, AWS, G00g Cloud, or other goes offline. What an ugly position to be in. :-( Thanks, but no thanks.
