Foldable iPhone and AI bets spark retail chatter around Apple, Nvidia, Oracle, Nokia, SpaceX

Retail traders focused on AAPL, NVDA, ORCL, NOK and SPCX last week as Apple unveiled the foldable iPhone Duo (starting at $1,999) and raised prices on Pro models, Nvidia reportedly considering up to $10 billion for Anthropic’s IPO, Oracle lifted its AI-cloud outlook with over $30 billion in new AI deals, Nokia rolled out Cognitive Operations for AI-heavy use cases, and SpaceX outlined ambitions to reach as much as 10 GW of terrestrial AI capacity by 2027. The week saw gains for AAPL, NVDA and NOK, while SPCX and ORCL declined, with year-to-date performance showing strong runners like AAPL/NVDA/NOK and laggards including SPCX/ORCL.

Feature-Phone Comeback: Real Trend or Nostalgia-Driven Fad?

Nokia adds an AI button to retro feature phones, sparking online skepticism

Nokia’s four new Nokia 210/215/235/200 4G feature phones add an AI button powered by Sikey AI to handle basic tasks like calls, flashlight, alarms, camera, and simple Q&As, with the AI service free for about 180 days. Availability and price are not yet announced. Critics on Reddit call the move “dumb” and “useless” for a device aimed at simplicity, though the phones retain legacy features (headphone jack, microSD, FM radio) and offer basic messaging/video via Xpress Chat.

Nvidia’s AI Push Elevates CoreWeave and Nokia as Potential Winners

The Motley Fool highlights Nvidia-backed plays CoreWeave and Nokia as potential beneficiaries of Nvidia’s AI surge. CoreWeave, a neocloud provider, reports strong revenue growth and a huge $99 billion backlog fueled by Nvidia tech and its Vera Rubin platform, but carries roughly $25 billion in debt and a rich valuation. Nokia is integrating Nvidia ARC-Pro processors into its 5G equipment to enable AI inference and CUDA support, and is involved in data-center upgrades with customers like T-Mobile and Orange, with modest 2025–2026 revenue growth but a notable year‑long stock rally. The piece frames these stocks as Nvidia‑driven opportunities while noting valuation and balance‑sheet risks, and it points readers to broader Fool Stock Advisor recommendations.)

Nokia Emerges as the Disciplined AI Infrastructure Bet Amid SpaceX Hype

Nokia (NOK) is pitched as a disciplined AI/infrastructure play with 49% YoY AI/cloud growth and €1B in orders, boosted by Nvidia funding and an AI Networking Lab, offering a lower valuation (~$82B) versus SpaceX’s ~$2T IPO hype; the piece argues NOK provides real revenue momentum and upside, while noting risks if AI/cloud spending slows or margins don’t materialize.

Nokia Emerges as the Quiet AI-Networking Stock to Watch

Cisco dominates headlines with a big FY26 AI infra order, but Nokia offers a sharper, under-the-radar AI-networking thesis built on real optical-networking assets, a strategic NVIDIA investment, and a leaner, cash-generative structure; investors might prefer Nokia on pullbacks to chasing the crowded Cisco rally, though the stock’s high forward multiple and upcoming Q2 results pose risks.

Nokia’s AI Infrastructure Rally Driven by Nvidia Backing

Nokia stock has more than doubled this year after Nvidia invested $1 billion for about a 3% stake to co-develop AI‑RAN with Nokia’s telecom hardware, backed by strong Q1 2026 results, a surge in AI and cloud orders, and raised full‑year guidance; the company is expanding capacity and opening an AI Networking Innovation Lab, with next catalysts including Q2 earnings and field trials, though AI spending cycles and the stock’s rally pose risks.

Germany Blocks Direct ASUS and Acer PC Sales Over Nokia Video-Codec Patents

A Munich Regional Court ruled that ASUS and Acer cannot directly sell PCs in Germany due to Nokia’s patent claims on HEVC/H.265 video encoding, ordering removal of their German online listings and allowing sales only via other OEMs or existing stock. The injunction focuses on the OEMs’ sales channels rather than retailers and hinges on licensing compliance under FRAND rules; the duration of the ban is not yet determined and may be revisited in follow-up court action.
