On July 6, Nokia rose 3.07% in pre-market trading, trading at $12.48/share, with turnover of $1.516 million. The rebound was driven by a dual catalyst of an investment bank target price upgrade and a new commercial order.
Bank of America recently raised its target price on Nokia from 14.4 euros to 15.6 euros, representing an approximately 8.3% increase and sending a positive signal on the company's outlook. Simultaneously, Belgium's Orange selected Nokia to upgrade its optical network infrastructure to secure 5G leadership and ensure quantum-resistant security and AI-grade network capabilities. The new order further validates Nokia's competitive edge in optical networking.
Nokia had previously experienced a cumulative pullback of over 15% due to FMR LLC reducing its voting rights below 5% and prior gains being taken off the table. The current combination of the upgraded target price and fresh order catalysts has prompted a recovery in market sentiment ahead of the company's next earnings report expected on July 23.
