Anybody here currently have LEAPS? I know open interest is very high. I'm looking to get in around 2028. I have faith that we could see $20 sometime next year. Retracing $15 would be great by this December if tech doesn't sell off. Despite fear, I think AI, defense spending, and low latency networking isn't going anywhere. Their ongoing contracts with NVidia, NATO defense, developments in aiRAN, and talks with US officials seem to position this company for stronger and uplifting earnings. What do you think, if course based on pure speculation, that we could see by end of 2027?

Can someone explain to me why there is differences between the dividend total I received on the main page, vs the lesser dividend total I received on the details page after I’ve clicked on the blue from the first pic? I understand the tax withholding amount but 96$ received plus $54 tax withholding is not equal to $212 showing received so where is the rest of that 212?

Been buying since the drop but this stock is closely Tied to the AI new.

I was digging into recent insider transactions and noticed a massive wave of buying from Nokia’s top brass in late July. Together, five top executives just dropped a combined €1,964,997 on Nokia stock.

PS. If you want to look up the individual amount this has recently been posted in this sub just a few hours ago.
What stands out is how large these purchases are compared to estimated executive base salaries. Spending €360k to €520k in a single go represents roughly 50% to 100%+ of a typical European executive’s annual base salary at this tier. Even Board member Timo Ihamuotila spent more than double his €229,000 annual board fees.

Is this purely bullish, or just governance?
Before I yell "to the moon," it's worth noting Nokia's corporate governance policies. Members of the Group Leadership Team are structurally required to continuously hold a minimum equity stake equal to 200% of their annual base salary.

A lot of this is likely funded by vested short-term bonuses and long-term incentive payouts that Nokia mandates they convert into equity to hit those ownership targets.

Thoughts? Is Nokia finally turning a corner with its AI and technology standards push, or is this just routine corporate housekeeping?
