I've bought low and sold high in this stock once before...trying to repeat history...
Nokia (NOK)
Positives:
Well-funded ~6% dividend yield.
Low 11 forward P/E.
Plus $10 billion(!) cash-minus-debt on balance sheet.
Essentially a (well-compensated) hardware supplier of Microsoft.
Negatives:
Thin margins and returns on assets/equity.
Slow/shrinking growth.
Best hopes of finishing third in a crowded smartphone field.
Here's my current portfolio. As always, I believe in all of these stocks - until I sell them.
