Nokia Jumps Most Since 2008 as Lumia Sales Top Estimates - Businessweek
Nokia Oyj (NOK1V) jumped the most in 4 1/2 years after sales of its flagship smartphone exceeded analysts? estimates, signaling the former global handset leader is making progress with a plan to stem revenue and market-share declines.
