Technical Analysis

Nokia is trading 2.3% below its 20-day simple moving average (SMA), but remains 14% above its 100-day SMA, a setup that typically signals a short-term pullback inside a still-constructive longer-term trend.

Shares are up 51.04% over the past 12 months and are positioned closer to their 52-week highs than lows within the $4.00 to $8.82 range.

The RSI is at 50.28, which sits in neutral territory and suggests neither buyers nor sellers have clear control right now. Meanwhile, MACD is at 0.1734 and remains below its signal line at 0.2411, reinforcing that bullish momentum has cooled in the near term.

RSI near 50 alongside a bearish MACD points to momentum leaning bearish, even though the broader trend structure is still supported by longer-term moving averages.
