NKE's three-month slide, digital slowdown and margin strain put the stock at a crossroads as investors weigh rebound potential against mounting headwinds.
The latest trading day saw Nike (NKE) settling at $65.65, representing a +1.11% change from its previous close.
Nike, Inc. remains in a challenged turnaround phase, with recent results showing mixed progress and no convincing evidence of a sustainable recovery. Recent NKE management changes and the other headlines send a strong signal, but leadership reshuffling makes me question execution and strategic clarity. NKE's Q1 delivered a positive revenue surprise, but gross margins declined 320 bps to 42.2%, digital sales collapsed 12%, and guidance calls for further margin compression in Q2.
