Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Ericsson retains a dominant position in the US, which is the most profitable market for wireless networking equipment providers.

Bears

Carriers continue to try to commoditize portions of Ericsson’s product offerings. The latest attempt, ORAN, threatens to disaggregate software and hardware, making it easier for carriers to play vendors off each other.
