Business Bites: Poor smartphone sales lead to huge losses for Nokia

Finnish mobile phone maker Nokia has announced it made a net loss of 929m euros ($1.2bn; £760bn) in the first three months of the year.

Nokia issued a profit warning last week but the figures are still worse than expected.

The BBC's Aaron Heslehurst discusses one of the key financial story of the day.
