Who could buy Nokia?
Nokia's market cap is currently about 33 B USD.
Total Cash (from balance sheet, most recent quarter):
Microsoft Corp: 40.0 B
Oracle: 24.8 B
Intel Corporation: 21.8 B
Hewlett Packard: 10.9 B
I know that "Total cash from balance sheet" is not the most accurate measure if a corp can buy another corp, but it is indicative. Considering that money is still very cheap, any of the corporations above could make a move
if they think buying Nokia is advantageous to them.
I can see at least 2 corporations in the list above that could have a strategic interest. And I do not mean MS, they already got what they wanted.
