Nokia stock (NYSE: NOK) has seen an impressive rise of 7% over the past week and currently trades at over $6 per share. This rally was driven by strong Q2 2021 earnings released last week, where revenue rose to $6.3 billion, compared to $6 billion for the same period last year. Further, gross margins rose to 41% from 38.1% and operating margins shot up to 9.1% from 3.3%, as the company was able to control expenses. This saw net income rise to $416 million, up from $117 million for the same period last year.

After the recent rally, will Nokia stock continue its upward trajectory over the coming weeks, or is a correction in the stock more likely? According to the Trefis Machine Learning Engine, which identifies trends in a company’s stock price data for the last ten years, returns for Nokia stock average close to 1.8% in the next one-month (21 trading days) period after experiencing a 7.2% rise over the previous one week (five trading days) period.

Some Fun Scenarios, FAQs & Making Sense of Nokia Stock Movements:

Question 1: Is the average return for Nokia stock higher after a drop?

Answer:

Consider two situations,

Case 1: NOK stock drops by -5% or more in a week

Case 2: NOK stock rises by 5% or more in a week

Is the average return for NOK stock higher over the subsequent month after Case 1 or Case 2?

Nokia stock fares better after Case 1, with an average return of 1.7% over the next month (21 trading days) under Case 1 (where the stock has just suffered a 5% loss over the previous week), versus, an average return of 1.3% for Case 2.

In comparison, the S&P 500 has an average return of 3.1% over the next 21 trading days under Case 1, and an average return of just 0.5% for Case 2 as detailed in our dashboard that details the average return for the S&P 500 after a fall or rise.
