Analyst Price Target Changes: Nokia Oyj's consensus analyst price target has increased from €5.29 to €5.39 per share, reflecting improved sentiment due to anticipated revenue growth and strong quarterly results, particularly in AI-linked opportunities.
Bullish and Bearish Perspectives: While several analysts have upgraded their ratings on Nokia, citing optimism around AI and network services, others remain cautious due to valuation concerns and limited near-term upside, leading to a mixed outlook.
Strategic Investments and Partnerships: Nokia has announced a $4 billion investment in R&D and manufacturing in the U.S. focused on AI technologies, and has secured a significant £2 billion deal with VodafoneThree to upgrade network infrastructure in the UK.
Market Dynamics and Regulatory Changes: The European Commission's potential ban on Huawei equipment and Germany's move to remove Huawei from 5G networks could enhance Nokia's competitive position in Europe, benefiting from the policy shift.
