Market Focus09-18 15:23

On September 18, Nokia Oyj rose 3.11% overnight, trading at $10.93/share, with turnover of $2.9728 million. The gains extend the prior session's rally driven by a deepened partnership with Microsoft and a fresh bullish analyst initiation.

Nokia announced an expanded collaboration with Microsoft to integrate its Nokia Data Suite with the Microsoft Fabric platform, creating a unified, AI-driven data foundation for multi-vendor network automation. The solution enables telecom operators to access trusted network data in minutes rather than weeks, with AI agents performing automated root-cause analysis and closed-loop operations. Initial applications include VoNR autonomous network assurance, starting with radio access network and fault management domains.

On the same day, B. Riley initiated coverage of Nokia with a Buy rating and a $15 price target, significantly above the analyst consensus mean target of $13.10. This adds to existing bullish coverage, including JPMorgan's maintained Buy rating with a $21 target. Additionally, Nokia's AI-RAN technology commercialization continues to accelerate globally on NVIDIA platforms, with over 20% spectrum efficiency improvements reported, providing further fundamental support.
