Nokia forecast calms investors after loss

China Daily | Updated: 2009-04-17 07:59

The world's top cell phone maker Nokia calmed jittery investors yesterday by reaffirming its forecast for the handset market and saying visibility was improving, sending its shares higher.

January-March sales fell 27 percent as the economic downturn sapped demand for new phones, with the firm reporting a historic 12-million-euro loss before taxes, its first-ever quarterly pretax loss.

The cell phone market is facing its toughest year ever in 2009, with Nokia repeating its forecast for market volumes to fall around 10 percent.
