Nike Stock - More Popular As Stock Split Makes It Cheaper

By Erin Clerici - 10 Jul 2018 1293 0 comment

Nike’s 2 for 1 stock split on December 26th drastically lowered its stock price. As a result, we lowered our price on a share of Nike stock and have seen heavy demand. Must have been a lot of sports fans waiting in the wings. Will be interesting to see if there is any Lance Armstrong impact on Nike. I have heard that other sponsors like the U.S. Post Office are suing him because of no drug requirements in their contract. I assume that Nike had the same type of clauses but who knows.

Her interest in the stock market started at a young age when her dad asked her and her sisters to choose a company to invest in. Erin chose Nokia, which at the time had enormous marketshare in the mobile and smartphone market, and her sisters chose Starbucks and Intel. While it ended up being a loser (thanks, Apple!), that investment and the choices her sisters made taught her valuable life-long lessons and sparked a curiosity to keep on learning and investing.
