Re: Huawei 5G out (none / 0)

I suppose it depends on how much of a war this turns into. It is really the US vs China, with the UK stuck in the middle. Current US policy is to poke and prod and badger and provoke China in any way possible, and it seems likely that at some point China will make a meaningful response.

For example, what happens if all of the Huawei broadband and cell infrastructure suddenly goes dark?

2020: So don't be surprised if the price of Nokia stock rises more than 120% to $10 per share.
