    The drop came right after the November 4 quarterly report, which showed revenue growth but a slightly weaker-than-hoped profit per share.

    On November 5, several analysts changed their price targets, the share price they see as fair: Nordea cut its target while DNB Carnegie raised its target and kept its buy rating.

    The last session saw a small rise against a clearly weaker market, with trading well above normal.
