NOK profit warning is coming again (Bernstein)
"Nokia still has problems and may well announce a profit warning or at least missed expectations for the third quarter" says Analysis House Bernstein, writes Dow Jones Newswires.
(Bernstein: Nokia's problems are far from over, even though the new Lumia 920 - and 820-Lumia phones releases help to create faith in the company's Windows-to its success. Nokia has been forced to cut according to Bernstein's earlier Lumia models, such as the Lumia 610's price in order to sell them. This in turn is eroding profitability and possibly that Nokia maintain their goals in July-September.)
Nokia will publish its third quarter results on 18 October 2012.

NOK 10 % UP
(Google translation from the original swedish text: Nokia was trading up 10 percent in Monday morning trading after Samsung's setback in patent litigation in the U.S. against Apple on Friday evening. Samsung dropped in turn 7.5 percent in Seoul, HTC fell 1.9 percent in Taiwan, and Apple went up 1.6 percent in Germany.
What has happened in the morning is that investors have moved some weight from Samsung to Nokia, said Nordea analyst Sami Sarkamies to Direkt.
The judgment, which Samsung was guilty of infringing on Apple's patents, and sentenced to a fine of more than $ 1 billion, is expected to be positive for Nokia and Microsoft.
In the short term, if Samsung gets a sales ban, we may benefit from less competition in the U.S. market for a period at the end of the year, says Sami Sarkamies.
On September 20, the court will discuss Apple's request to ban Samsung sell the products that make patent infringement.
The injunction will have an effect on older Samsung phones. Even before a potential sale ban Samsung will have made modifications to avoid patentintrången, making sales ban probably will not have any effect on the Samsung next year, says Sami Sarkamies.
He also points out that the main thing for Nokia is to have enough attractive products to attract consumers more than a Androidprodukt which this judgment do not change.
The judgment is not final. It is a first step in a legal process that will last for years, according to analysts. Samsung has stated that the company, if it does not receive the judgment annulled, will appeal.
Apple operates similar litigation against other manufacturers who base their phones on Google's Android operating system, where the next target is HTC.
I commented on Friday's ruling against Samsung with the most cases do not relate to the core of the Android software.
Sami Sarkamies also believes that the patents in Friday's judgment in increasingly about the physical design that Samsung than on Android.

Stocklemon Reports on Smart-Tek Solutions, Inc. (OTCBB:STTK)
The avian bird flu has created a new kind of epidemic that is widespread throughout North America. But it’s not a medical epidemic — rather it is a financial epidemic. As Stocklemon focuses on Smart-Tek Solutions (STTK), we believe that investors should not give their wallet the flu, but rather flip this company a bird.
Apparent outstanding shares: 73,253,016 shares
Stock price today: 1.74
Market cap at today’s price: $130 million
Stock price two weeks ago: 30c
Stock price six weeks ago: 16c
Cash in Bank- Overdraft of $136,136 (yes that means negative)
What the Company Really Does
Smart-Tek Solutions Inc. purports to be a provider of security services and systems in the Vancouver area. Its website shows many lovely photos of the glass-enclosed high-rises that grace the Vancouver skyline, where it claims to be “a major provider of goods and services in the security technology” sector.
Yet, its most recently filed quarterly report shows gross revenues of just $756,811. Its balance sheet tells the tale of a company with many problems. The company currently has only $800k in assets and $1.66 million in liabilities including a Bank Overdraft of $136,136. Needless to say they have a going concern from their auditor.
Now all of a sudden, one brilliant day last November, the company hatched the idea of going into the avian flu business. Not just the regular old ho-hum avian flu business, mind you, but the avian flu business in China !
Never before have we heard of this business from the company. Neither did they spend ONE DOLLAR on research and development. Now a company with a $136,000 bank overdraft is going to put an RFID tag on every chicken in China.
This should come as no surprise — before the company was called Smart-Tek, it was called Royce Biomedical, Inc. (OTCBB:RYBO) who used spam to promote selling drug diagnostic kits in China (needless to say nothing came of that claim either.)
Nokia Has An Interesting Patent On A Flexible Device ("mobile phone")like watch
Nokia Has An Interesting Patent On A Flexible Device
Nokia has filed a very very interesting patent titled “User Interface, Device And Method For A Physically Flexible Device”.
Is has something to do with the Morph-consept and has been developed together with the Cambridge university nanoresearchers.
I suppose that this will be totally something new!
If you’re wondering what’s so special about a flexible display, after all. Well, in this patent, the device shall perform different tasks depending on the way it’s bent. For example, if you bend it in a such a way that it resembles a beer can, then it could perform a search for a bar or pub in the neighborhood; if you bend it to resemble a bowl, it’ll search for a restaurant or bar; if you bend it the other way, resembling a roof, it’ll search for a hotel or something along those lines.

Happy investing
Last time I visited this group and send a message was in 2007. It was a WARNING: The price of this company was about 2 - 2,5 and the long trend was very clearly down.
The only thing I wrote to all of you was (if I remember right):
"the trend is your frend".
I don´t know what has happened with this company after that
but it seems that you have lost much of time (the most valuable asset you have) and your life-energy with this company and totally useless discussion. It seems to me that "Stocktiger" is not writing anymore. He was very active at taht time. Is he still alive?
It means: the trend is your friend!
CLEAR!!!
look at this weekly chart. It is clear!!!
"Current lack of financial information from ATOLL"
They have 50 % ownership and 4,5 MUSD in ATOLL.Is this MATERIAL?
According to US regulations SHOULD they tell something to NNRI owners how ATOLL has gone (June 30.2007) or not? They know or at least THEY SHOULD KNOW how ATOLL goes! And so should know NNRI investors too.
"Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NNRF, Inc. and the following wholly owned subsidiaries after May 23, 2006: Nucon, Inc., Abucco Technologies Inc. (Abucco), Stafford Energy Canada Inc. (“Stafford Canada”) and Nucon-RUS from the dates of their acquisition or formation. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Due to the Company not being able to influence significant control over its investment in ATOLL, the Company accounts for this investment at its cost."
"The carrying amount of the investment in ATOLL at June 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006 was $4,566,250 and $1,166,250, respectively. The carrying amount of the investment in ATOLL is deemed to be the fair value because it is not practicable to determine the fair value of the investment due to current lack of financial information from ATOLL"
I am not a consultant or owner (at this moment) of NNRI )

E.ON about to enter Russian electricity market
E.ON selected as best bidder
Modern, efficient generation fleet
New power plants planned for growth regions
E.ON is on the verge of successfully entering the Russian electricity market, one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing energy markets. According to a statement issued by the evaluation commission of RAO UES, the Russian state-owned company, E.ON submitted the best bid for the 47-percent stake in OGK-4, that has being offered by RAO UES. OGK-4 is one of six operators of large-scale generating facilities currently being privatized by RAO UES. The board of directors of OGK-4 has set the purchase price for the upcoming capital increase of about 23 percent. This pruchase price is equivalent to the price E.ON offered for the OGK-4 shares. E.ON also intents to submit a binding offer for this capital increase in order to acquire a roughly 70-percent stake in OGK-4. E.ON would then pay an overall purchase price of 146.5 billion RUB (4.1 billion EUR). Under Russian securities law, after officially acquiring the stake E.ON must make a public tender offer to OGK-4’s minority shareholders.
“The acquisition of OGK-4 would be an another important step into the Russia electricity market, which offers enormous growth potential due to the sharp increase in industrial demand and the need for substantial investments,” E.ON CEO Wulf H. Bernotat explains. “In addition, OGK-4 has a very attractive generation fleet. Its power plants are relatively new and technologically up to date, have a high utilization factor and low fuel consumption. They therefore rank among the best and most efficient in Russia. Moreover, they’re located in high-growth regions. Consequently, we expect this investment to create significant value. It would represent a big step forward in the €60 billion growth offensive we launched this year. OGK-4 is well positioned for the further liberalization of Russia’s electricity market. We want to actively support OGK-4’s management as it continues to position the company and implement its substantial program to build new power plants.”
OGK-4 currently operates four gas-fired power plants and one coal-fired plant with an aggregate installed capacity of approximately 8.6 gigawatts, which is equal to roughly 6 percent of Russia’s thermal generating capacity. The high gas component (about 80 percent) of the company’s fuel mix is typical of all Russian operators of large-scale power plants. About 83 percent of the company’s generating capacity is in the Europe/Urals region in which load growth is expected to be particularly strong due to increasing demand from basic and heavy industry. By 2011, OGK-4 plans to build additional, technologically advanced power plants with a total capacity of 2.4 gigawatts at its existing facilities. For E.ON, OGK-4 represents another important platform for organic growth in the Russian market.
Russia’s electricity market is one of the world’s largest and fastest growing, with an annual growth rate of 5 percent. E.ON’s long-term objective is to establish a strong position in Russia’s fast-growing industrial regions in the Urals, western Siberia, Volga, and central Russia.
It is estimated that Russia’s electricity industry will require investments of more than $120 billion between 2006 and 2010. This will involve not only the modernization of power stations and transmission systems but also the construction of new generation capacity to meet Russia’s growing demand for electricity. RAO UES, Russia’s state-owned holding company for its electricity interests, and the Russian government have therefore taken steps to liberalize the country’s electricity market. These steps include the introduction of a largely deregulated wholesale power market and the privatization of six large power companies, such as OGK-4, currently in RAO UES’s portfolio.
E.ON & Russia

“The final report of the testing of these technologies is being presented at a seminar at the Fachhockschule Hannover, in Hannover, Germany on September 18, 2007.

There will also be a roundtable discussion between NNRF’s shielding managers and the E.ON personnel in attendance to discuss the applications and installations of the materials at their nuclear power plants. “

E.ON vor dem Einstieg in den russischen Strommarkt
• E.ON als bester Bieter ausgewählt
• Moderner, leistungsfähiger Kraftwerkspark
• Neue Kraftwerke in Wachstumsregionen geplant
E.ON steht kurz vor dem erfolgreichen Einstieg in den russischen Strommarkt, der zu den größten und wachstumsstärksten Energiemärkten der Welt gehört. Im Bieterverfahren um OGK-4, einem von sechs Großkraftwerksunternehmen in Russland, die derzeit von der staatlichen Gesellschaft RAO UES privatisiert werden, hat E.ON laut Erklärung der Bewertungskommission der RAO UES das beste Gebot für das von RAO UES zum Verkauf gestellte 47 Prozent Aktienpaket der OGK-4 abgegeben. Der Direktorenrat der OGK-4 hat den Bezugs¬preis für die bevorstehende Kapitalerhöhung von rund 23 Prozent beschlossen. Dieser Bezugspreis entspricht dem Preis, den E.ON für die Aktien der RAO geboten hat. E.ON beabsichtigt, im Rahmen der Kapitalerhöhung ebenfalls ein verbindliches Angebot abzugeben, um insgesamt einen rund 70-prozentigen-Anteil an OGK-4 zu erwerben. Insgesamt würde E.ON voraussichtlich dann einen Kaufpreis von 146,5 Mrd RUB (4,1 Mrd €) zahlen. Nach Vollzug des Erwerbs dieser Anteile müsste E.ON nach russischem Kapitalmarktrecht ein öffentliches Übernahmeangebot an die außen stehenden Minderheitsaktionäre der OGK-4 machen.
„Der Erwerb der OGK-4 wäre für E.ON ein wesentlicher weiterer Schritt in den russischen Strommarkt, der durch eine industriell stark steigende Nachfrage und einen hohen Investitionsbedarf enormes Wachstumspotential bietet“, erklärt E.ON-Chef Wulf H. Bernotat. „OGK-4 verfügt zudem über einen äußerst attraktiven Kraftwerkspark. Die Kraftwerke sind relativ jung, modern und haben eine hohe Auslastung. Sie zählen damit zu den besten und leistungsfähigsten in Russland und liegen zudem in den wachstumsstärksten Regionen, so dass wir von einem deutlich wertschaffenden Investment ausgehen können. Unsere in diesem Jahr gestartete, 60 Mrd € schwere Wachstumsoffensive ist damit einen großen Schritt weiter vorangekommen. OGK-4 hat eine gute Ausgangsposition bei der weiteren Liberalisierung des russischen Strommarktes. Wir wollen das Management von OGK-4 bei der weiteren Positionierung sowie bei der Umsetzung des geplanten umfangreichen Neubauprogramms aktiv unterstützen.“
OGK-4 betreibt heute vier Gaskraftwerke und ein Kohlekraftwerk mit einer installierten Kapazität von insgesamt rund 8,6 Gigawatt. Das entspricht in etwa sechs Prozent der russischen thermischen Stromerzeugung. Die Gesellschaft verfügt über einen für alle russischen Großkraftwerksgesellschaften typischen Brennstoffmix mit einem hohen Gasanteil von rund 80 Prozent. Rund 83 Prozent der Gesamtkapazität befinden sich in der Region Europa/Ural, in der der Strombedarf aufgrund der steigenden Nachfrage der Grundstoff- und Schwerindustrie künftig besonders stark steigen wir und OGK-4 plant den Bau weiterer, moderne Kraftwerke mit einer Kapazität von 2,4 Gigawatt bis 2011 an vorhandenen Standorten. Für E.ON stellt OGK-4 eine weitere wichtige Ausgangsplattform für organisches Wachstum in diesem Markt dar.
Mit einem Wachstum von 5 Prozent jährlich gehört Russland zu den größten und wachstumsstärksten Strommärkten weltweit. Langfristiges Ziel von E.ON ist es, eine starke Position in den wachstumsintensiven Industrieregionen Ural, Westsibirien, Wolga und Zentralrussland aufzubauen.
Der Investitionsbedarf der russischen Stromwirtschaft im Zeitraum 2006 bis 2010 wird auf über 120 Mrd US$ geschätzt. Dabei geht es nicht nur um die Modernisierung von Kraftwerken und Übertragungsnetzen. Auch der Bau neuer Kraftwerkskapazitäten ist erforderlich, um den steigenden russischen Strombedarf zu decken. Die staatliche Stromholding RAO UES und die russische Regierung haben daher Schritte zur Liberalisierung des Strommarktes eingeleitet. Dazu zählen die Einführung eines weitgehend freien Handels mit Strom am Großhandelsmarkt und die Privatisierung von insgesamt 6 Großkraftwerksgesellschaften wie zum Beispiel OGK-4, die derzeit noch zur RAO UES gehören.“
