Strong dollar and weak China sales crush Nike — fade the bounce

Nike just reported a deepening sales slump in China, its most important growth market. At the same time, a surging US dollar is making American exports more expensive overseas, creating a double-whammy for the sneaker giant.

Idea

Nike's core business is deteriorating, evidenced by a deepening sales slump in China that overshadowed their recent profit report. This fundamental weakness is amplified by a macro environment featuring a 40-year low in the Japanese Yen and a broadly surging US Dollar driven by rising Treasury yields. A stronger dollar directly hurts multinational companies like Nike by making their products more expensive—and less competitive—in international markets, crushing their foreign revenue.
