I'm sure they were not worried before this weekend when the price of Lumia with 2 year contract went from $99 to $49, that's why the PPS was down 85%, because they were not worried... sheesh...

is it me or is there an orchestrated manipulation media BS going on???

When isn't there manipulation going on in the stock market?

Given the fact Nokia is the second most shorted European stock right now, I'd expect those 13.2% float shorts to flex some manipulation muscle. Would you not?

Elop better flex his, on Thursday, or those very happy shorts will be even happier campers.

Short interest surged in the last month ahead of earnings to an all time high of 13.2% of shares, as the company has seen its share of the Smartphone market slashed and investors questioning how the company can respond to competition from dominant providers like Apple.

Speaking of manipulation, I checked out the short figures here in the US.

Seems to me, the short interest was actually quite "normal", two weeks ago. Lots of the shorts already covered, in March and April:

So, I'd say there is not much reason to get excited about the short position, either.

Back to waiting for my Nokia 808 to arrive today, and for Thursday's "Jerry Springer" Elop episode.

MKM Partners lowered their price target on shares of Nokia (NYSE: NOK) from $2.00 to $1.50 in a research note issued on Monday. The firm currently has a “sell” rating on the stock.

They must be looking at the same NOK charts I am.

But, NOK1V is slightly green now, and so is NOK in pre-market.

Not even a contest really. The Nokia 808 clearly beats all other existing phonecams into pulp.

5 Stocks to Buy If They Crash on Earnings - TheStreet
On weakness, I intend to aggressively buy INTC, followed by somewhat less aggressive purchases of MSFT and smaller, speculative shots at NOK. I would put 65% of a pot of money towards INTC, 30% towards MSFT and the remaining 5% towards NOK.
Makes sense to me. Might do something like that. Shall see...

Meanwhile, NOK is underwater again now, after an optimistic start out of the gate...

Yup. Doesn't look like the trend will change much, until maybe Thursday. Or it will then accelerate.

Also of note: RIMM hit a new 52wk low today.

Not a good Monday for these two supertankers...
