Nothing new since yesterday there.
I think CTO departure will further dent the stocks.
Almost real time price, bid volumes, order depth and list of latest trades.

People should not read too much into market capitalisation, its just one of many variables to determine the real value of a company.

Finally, I find someone here who can differentiate between market cap and firm value.

Glad to know you.

No surprise here.
Maybe you would like to take a look at the google's stock as well?

Yeah. I mean so. Market share is not the most important factor to judge about the company's value.

Elop is acutally a genius.

A real businessman doesn't sell a single phone once in a while - one by one. He sells the whole company at once. Smart!

Well, he's not wrong, in the sense that Nokia has hitched their wagon WP. If WP fails, then Nokia does too. So of course Nokia wants it to succeed. Success will mean that other hardware makers will want to use it too.

The best possible result here is that Nokia gets to be just another Microsoft OEM. Hopefully the biggest. They are shooting to be the Dell of phones. Which I guess is better than being bankrupt, but it isn't exactly an exciting future either. They will have to live on small profit margins and pretty much jettison any hope of doing serious R&D.

He is still working for Microsoft it seems tough...

I still don't get why WP7 is so much better for Nokia than Android would have been.

Why not join the bigger Android community than the without-Nokia-already-dead WP7 community with all this talk about being reduced to an OEM?

Yep, just like he sold the entire company to Adobe months after he assumed duty as a CEO of Macromedia.

He's a real expert in betraying...I meant selling his company.

Finally an article that states that the worst might be over for NOK shareholders. Some good numbers there.

http://seekingalpha.com/article/2741...y?source=yahoo

The author is long NOK, so he either sees the rosy side or puts his money where his mouth is.
