Nokia is transitioning from a legacy telecom vendor into an AI infrastructure and 6G platform company, currently priced as a telecom equipment maker (33x forward PE) but deserving Arista-like multiples (54x+) given its AI-RAN partnerships with NVIDIA, government defence contracts, and positioning as a Western 5G/6G alternative to banned Huawei. AI-embedded radio towers enable microsecond latency improvements critical for autonomous vehicles, remote surgery, and factory automation.

Nokia is transitioning from a legacy telecom hardware company to an AI and defence infrastructure player. Current PE of 26 sits between telecom comparables (Ericsson at 17) and optical infrastructure comparables (Arista at 54), positioning Nokia for a valuation rewrite to ~$26.8 if it successfully establishes itself as an AI infrastructure and defence supplier, with further upside from emerging AI-RAN revenue streams.
Author has made significant gains on NOK (up 30x) and intends to hold for further upside toward a 100x return, indicating strong conviction in the stock's continued appreciation.
NOK has caught up to its 2012 valuation when it sold its phone company; the author views the stock as entering a re-evaluation and growth phase with upside ahead. Position includes 650K shares (accumulated since February with 30% purchased today) and 15-strike leap calls rolled from 10-strike calls, representing conviction that the market will assign a higher valuation going forward.
The author recommends Nokia as part of the BANG GANG alternative to silver, grouping it with GME, AMC, and BlackBerry as the legitimate squeeze plays.
End of results.
