Nokia - Goede resultaten Q2 2005 te verwachten ?

The buzz in industry circles is that business has been better than expected, particularly for Nokia (NOK) and Motorola (MOT), the world's top two cellphone makers. In the days leading up to both companies' quarterly results (Motorola reports on July 19, Nokia on the 21st), analysts are making increasingly optimistic comments on the quarter. The good word is that Motorola's unit volumes have been stronger in Western Europe, North America and various developing markets, according to analysts. Meanwhile, Nokia's sales appear to be ringing strongly in Europe and Asia, and some market watchers have speculated that the company will raise guidance ahead of its quarterly report.
