And they say digital currencies are volatile! 🧐

Nike's share price is plummeting due to several factors revealed in its recent earnings report and future outlook:
-
Declining sales: Nike reported a 2% decrease in quarterly sales for the period ending May 31, 2024[1][2].
-
Gloomy forecast: The company projected a 10% year-over-year decline in sales for the current quarter, significantly worse than the 3% decrease analysts had anticipated[1][2].
-
Revised fiscal year 2025 outlook: Nike now expects a decrease in sales in the mid-single digits for the full fiscal year 2025, contrary to analysts' expectations of a 1% increase[1].
-
Challenges in key markets: Nike is facing difficulties in its Chinese business, with expectations of a 10% decline below the record set in 2021[2].
-
Increased competition: The athletic apparel and footwear sector has become more competitive, with Nike facing pressure from emerging competitors like Alo and Hoka[2].
-
Declining search interest: Goldman Sachs research indicated a consistent year-over-year decline in global search volumes for Nike products since July 2023[2].
-
Management credibility concerns: Some analysts have questioned the company's leadership and their ability to navigate the current challenges[3].
-
Transition period: Fiscal year 2025 is expected to be a transitional year for Nike, with softer performance than anticipated as the company attempts to balance various factors, including product innovation and channel mix[3].
As a result of these factors, Nike's stock experienced its worst one-day percentage decline on record, dropping by approximately 20% on June 28, 2024[1][2][3]. This significant drop has pushed Nike's stock price to its lowest point since January 2019, excluding the brief market crash during the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020[2].

Thank you for sharing this information, I think point 5 may be one of Nike's big problems right now, the great competition that the fashion sector has, especially with so many fast fashion businesses and others that are growing a lot in recent times...
