Nokia could start picling away at the iphone and Android regaining its market share.
Nokia‘s (NOK) “Lumia 900,” the smartphone developed with Microsoft (MSFT), and which went on sale a few weeks ago exclusively at AT&T (T), is “selling at a run rate in excess of 1 million units for Q2, 2012,” writes Jamie Townsend with Town Hall Investment Research today in a note to clients.
That’s a good thing, he writes.
“In our view, this would significantly exceed AT&T’s and street estimates for the 900 and indicate that the Nokia/Microsoft alliance is showing early signs of success.”
Writing that Lumia’s “share momentum” will be “a very gradual progress at best,” and that Nokia’s Q1 report last week showed “very little in the way of encouragement that the company is on the verge of a recovery,” nevertheless, Townsend is sticking by a Buy recommendation he assigned on March 30th.
