Nike IncNKEPAST TOP PICKMar 15, 2016Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Oct 09, 2026. Market Open.
Several levels of trouble. He added recently ~$45. Not looking for homeruns. Potential for it to get back up to mid-upper $50s is realistic. Still very expensive at 30x forward PE. Unless they can figure out the China headwinds, it will struggle. Every time it rallies, it's likely to a lower high. Selloffs will be to lower lows.
Growth story for decades, but now a mature clothing company. A trade, not an investment.
(A Top Pick March 16/15. Up 20.8%.) Had a 2 for one stock split. Sales in China were awesome with something like 35% more basketball shoes. Sold his holdings last fall, almost at the peak, when it was trading at 30X earnings. Still pretty highly valued. Would prefer it in the low 20X earnings.
