On July 28, Nokia Oyj fell 5.03% in regular trading, trading at $8.69/share, with turnover of $277 million. The decline represents a continuation of heavy selling pressure following the company's better-than-expected Q2 earnings release on July 23.
Nokia reported Q2 adjusted comparable operating profit of EUR 434 million, up 18% year-over-year and significantly above the market consensus of EUR 382 million. AI and cloud business order intake reached EUR 2.8 billion with sales more than doubling year-over-year. The company also raised its full-year comparable operating profit guidance to a range of EUR 2.1 billion to EUR 2.6 billion. Despite these strong results, the stock has experienced a classic sell-the-news pattern, declining from approximately $10.28 near the earnings release to current levels. The stock has now broken below prior support at $9.3, suggesting selling pressure has yet to fully abate. A recently disclosed manager's transaction notification has further weighed on short-term sentiment.
