Company value has now increased by $3 billion

[Anonymous No.14623036]

Since the whole Colin Kaepernick racist 4th of July flag shoe thing happened, Nike stock shares have since gone up 2 percent, which has increased the company's value from $133.38 billion to $136.38 billion.

Originally priced at $120, the shoes are now selling for as much as $2,500 online. I suspect a significant portion of the sellers with a pair offered up for sale are just Nike employees posing as re-sellers.

That being said, I gotta think this was all staged and planned in advance. Colin walks away from all this a multimillionaire set for life without having to deal with any of the long term aches, pains, and mobility limitations that most professional NFL player have to deal with after they retire.

None of this was ever about racism. It was about making money selling shoes. Genius marketing executed with perfect aim. Bravo Nike!

They might be getting some short term gains from liberal buyers, but in the long run this company will fall if they keep pushing their politics into their business.

The level of hypocrisy from a company that basically employs slave labor, is off the charts.

Watch Adidas and Reebok grow over the next 5 years.

I had to get new shoes yesterday and I ignored the giant wall of Nike's and instead got a pair of black New Balances with a giant N on the side

Blacks are big into Nikes though. White people don't matter as much to their business.

Ya know what would probably make instant national news and cause their stock value to plummet? If a flash mob of about 20k or more folks showed up at Comiskey Park in Chicago and threw their Nike shoes into a big bonfire and burned em. Same exact place and action taken when the public had heard enough of the Bee Gee's music back in 1978 and made it clear they wanted 'em off the radio air waves.

While dollar has a real inflation rate of around 5% per year. That means basically Nike is worth about 20% less.

Duh retard, they've been pulling this hustle ever since Al Sharpton discovered that "mUh CiViL riIiiIgHtS" had petered out as an engine for social change and was really just money waiting to get collected.

Its the power of marketing. If you look at humans as a collective mob of people all at once rather than just each as an individual one by one, they're quite easy to brainwash into purchasing things they really don't even need that are way overpriced with relatively minimal effort.

Take Shepard Fairey for example. He saw street graffiti, and realized it was effectively, the same as marketing. He got into postering, and plastered a repetitive images side by side over and over again in different places within NYC, using it as a medium for free speech. His imagery became so recognizable, he capitalized on it and turned it into a clothing line. All that from a little street graffiti. So an organized and well funded marketing campaign is certainly powerful enough into hypnotizing the public into believing a little bit of colored EVA foam, lightweight plastic and mesh fabrics woven into a shoe is worth hundreds or even thousands of dollars. No problemo.

Checked and repilled. Threadly reminder that there has been close to $5 TRILLON in stock buybacks since 2008. Not saying we are at the end of the road but this is unprecedented.

>I won’t invest in companies ideologically opposed to me.

That’s why you’ll never make it OP. Eventually, every company will celebrate tranny kid fuckers month in September and you can either pull out and be a wagie for life or pour your money in and get rich with them.

It’s fucked. Welcome to capitalism. *Buys Nike stock*

white guilt sells shoes. I believe it, I can picture a bunch of rich white execs sitting in a board room, dreaming up the perfect marketing plan
>Imagine anon, we are selling these niggers a little piece of the white man's soul in every sneaker. What is that worth to a moon cricket you ask? $120? $150? Hey, why not shoot for $2500? Hahahaha, fucking stupid coons. We win again! They'll pay anything for these, dumb fucks.

Exactly....it worled only because of dumb apoligetic white liberal cucks and race baited black people wanting to claim the victim card. US is in shambles as far as its cotizebs go. I can barely tolerate living here anymore...have lived in Asia 10 plus years and cant wait to get back out of this place again. Most the people are nothing but liberal apoligetic media brainwashed fat retards. Black people are thriving though.

the share price has gone up because it's a multinational corporation riding the biggest money-printing fueled asset bubble in history. its share price will continue to rise no matter how hard its sales tank because traditional investment metrics haven't mattered one iota since 2008
