NORDIC STOCKS - Factors to watch on Sept 11
The following stocks may be affected by newspaper reports and other factors on Friday:
NOKIA
Motorola unveiled on Thursday the first of many cellphones to be developed in partnership with Google, but analysts questioned if it could revive the once-dominant handset maker's fortunes.
In an interview, Motorola's co-chief executive told Reuters the firm is eyeing a big push back into the European market if its new Google phones sell well.
SWEDBANK
The Swedish banking group said late on Thursday it estimated that expenses for participation in the government's loan guarantee scheme would be 130 million crowns ($18.6 million) for the first half of 2009.
Previously the bank had estimated the charge at zero, but the government has announced a change in the way it calculates fees, the bank said in a statement.
It said this would affect net interest income from the third quarter this year.
