Nike Stock Price Target Cut to $27.50: Why Wall Street Is Wrong
Nike stock just got downgraded. Wall Street says NKE is going to $27.5. Here’s why they’re dead wrong.
Around Nike earnings, a couple of brokerages cut their Nike price target to $29 and $30. The bearish case on Nike stock is now consensus, and as a contrarian, that’s exactly where I start paying attention.
In this Nike stock analysis, I break down:
The Nike stock downgrade, and why the crowd piling on is a contrarian signal
What DIDN’T happen after Nike earnings, and why it matters more than any price target
Why $35, support going back to 2014, is the level that decides this trade
Why a monthly close above $35 would tell me the bottom is in
Why the Nike turnaround story is mispriced, not dead
On August 20th I said $35 was where I’d get aggressive on NKE stock. Today I show you exactly where the trade stands and the trigger I need before adding. This is swing trading, not day trading. I’m long Nike, I’m not chasing it, and it has to earn my capital.
Is Nike stock a buy? Watch to the end.
