>>>Once upon a time, corporate executives had a fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders

Yes, and that emphasis led to much of our manufacturing base being moved to China and the encouragement of mass immigration to the US.

If it were only true . I’m not a Nike fan at all but Nike closed the week as of 9/6/19 at $88.69 up 4.96%. So I don’t know where the stats for this article came from

Nike move is deliberate with their anti-American or at least anti “The Man” push.

Nike sales are only about 1/2 US and the growth has come from overseas, Africa,Middle East, China and Europe. Their target audience is built around defiance, putting it to the man and the sales are driven by “people of color” not MAGA supporters.
Anyway Nike is not the best product out there and its interesting how the left lets them now get away with sweat shop labor in Asia.

Don’t diss your customers. Like Michael Jordan wisely said, “Republicans buy shoes, too!”

Nike, Target, Gillette and Dicks.

How is that working out for ya?

Nike stock rebounded and is less than a dollar off its YTD high. Target stock is up 40% over its year-ago price. Gillette is up 12% over its 6-months-ago price. Dick's stock is up a bit after announcing they were dropping assault weapons.
