Nokia Oyj’s shares slipped 2.5% to €10.30 in Helsinki at 16:44 EEST after investors reacted to a cost warning from Ericsson.

S&P 500 Tech Slide Masked 0.76-Point Shift—Banks in Focus as Results Loom

S&P 500 dropped 0.8% Monday as chip stocks tumbled and oil spiked nearly 10%, shaking risk appetite.

That’s about $225 billion higher than today’s value by the same measure.
