On July 17, Nokia declined 4.09% in regular trading, trading at approximately $10.11/share, with turnover of $2.41 billion. The stock has now accumulated a weekly loss of roughly 19.5%.
The decline was driven by multiple converging headwinds. The communication equipment sector remained broadly under pressure, with peers Arista Networks falling 2.51%, Ciena down 2.69%, and Applied Optoelectronics declining 1.81%, amplifying the drag through sector linkage. Nokia is scheduled to release its second-quarter and half-year financial report on July 23, with market participants adopting a cautious wait-and-see stance ahead of the key data release. Additionally, Nordea Bank previously cut its target price on Nokia from 15.7 EUR to 14.8 EUR per share, weighing on investor confidence. The company's earlier transfer of over 43.55 million treasury shares continues to exert selling pressure, while short-term profit-taking following a July 9 rally driven by the NVIDIA AI-RAN partnership announcement remains undigested.
