Read MoreHide Full Article
In the latest trading session, Nokia (NOK - Free Report) closed at $5.57, marking a +1.46% move from the previous day. This change outpaced the S&P 500's 1.22% loss on the day. At the same time, the Dow lost 0.19%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq lost 0.53%.
Heading into today, shares of the technology company had lost 13.41% over the past month, lagging the Computer and Technology sector's loss of 11.78% and the S&P 500's loss of 6.58% in that time.
Nokia will be looking to display strength as it nears its next earnings release, which is expected to be February 3, 2022. On that day, Nokia is projected to report earnings of $0.12 per share, which would represent a year-over-year decline of 29.41%. Our most recent consensus estimate is calling for quarterly revenue of $7.4 billion, down 5.55% from the year-ago period.
Any recent changes to analyst estimates for Nokia should also be noted by investors. These revisions typically reflect the latest short-term business trends, which can change frequently. As such, positive estimate revisions reflect analyst optimism about the company's business and profitability.
Based on our research, we believe these estimate revisions are directly related to near-team stock moves. We developed the Zacks Rank to capitalize on this phenomenon. Our system takes these estimate changes into account and delivers a clear, actionable rating model.
