Nokia Corp is trading 5.5% down at $13.79 as short-term traders lock in gains following a sharp rally sparked by geopolitical catalysts.
- The recent uptrend was driven by reports that U.S. officials are pressuring NATO allies to remove Huawei equipment from critical infrastructure, which is expected to boost Nokia's network business.
- Market analysts suggest the Huawei-related catalyst is now fully priced in, leading to selling pressure amid a broader decline in the technology sector.
- Despite the current price volatility and profit-taking, the company's underlying fundamentals remain unchanged.
