Nokia Interested in Navteq

In its serious ambition to establish a stronghold in the navigation industry and increase its revenue potential, nokia is interested to acquire digital map supplier Navteq. If all goes well, this will be the largest ever takeover of Nokia for a value of about $7.6 billion.

"Buying Navteq would be in line with Nokia's plans. Navteq's position is pretty strong. Navigation markets are just starting up," said OKO Bank analyst Hannu Rauhala to Reuters.

Conversely, Bloomberg reports that shares of Nokia fell by about 1 percent with this recent development because investors think the acquisition cost is too expensive.
