Did Nike’s stock hold up after the initial few weeks of Kaepernick? High schoolers and college students alone couldn’t keep their brand afloat, I would think.

Just looked it up. Nike pretty much broke even since that decision. The S&P 500 is down 10%. I'd call that a win for the America-hating brand. Note: I will never under any circumstances buy Nike again, but it appears that they were right to dismiss productive Americans as potential customers. As for Gillette, they just joined my boycott list too. I'm going to save money without them.

Thanks. Good to know. As another poster pointed out, it couldn’t have been that great for Nike if they didn’t do more ads with Kaepernick since then.
