Nike: Full Price Recovery Will Take Time (Downgrade)

Summary Nike faces intensifying competition, weak U.S. and China demand, and declining market share, prompting a downgrade to neutral. NKE’s gross margin remains pressured, with normalized Q4 EBIT growth modest and underlying profitability challenged despite one-time tariff benefits. China sales dropped 17% y/y FX neutral, and footwear revenue—70% of NKE’s total—continues to deteriorate, offsetting minor apparel improvements. Valuation premium over stronger peers like On and Deckers is unjustified; I recommend moving to the sidelines until fundamentals improve. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

lululemon: International Growth, Execution Improvements And Low Valuation

Summary lululemon is rated a Buy, with valuation reflecting overly pessimistic assumptions about permanent earnings impairment. International growth, especially in China, is robust and high-margin, offsetting weak U.S. performance and supporting the investment thesis. Operational improvements—inventory management, SKU reduction, and merchandising—are not fully reflected in FY2026 guidance, creating upside potential. Margin headwinds from tariffs and markdowns are expected to moderate, positioning LULU for earnings recovery and favorable risk-reward. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha
