This week’s front page cover article of Barron’s is focused on Nokia with the title saying “A better bet than Apple.” Now of course this is a magazine for people in the financial markets who aren’t necessarily technophiles, but they know a solid company when they see it. Cited for the ability to make 1 million phones everyday, having 21% margins on average for all their devices and the fact that the Nokia N95, E65 and 6300 were responsible for 20% of all handset sales might show Americans that Apple isn’t really all that. With 37% market share some people, including I, say that the only direction to go is down; Barron’s has another opinion and it’s comforting to hear that.
Now I don’t have access to the full article, but if anyone does could you please send it to me? Thanks.
