Happy long weekend. Hope all the friends in the US will get a relaxing holiday!
So just a brief idea for a household name, Nike, Inc (NKE).
I don’t think I need to say anything more about what is Nike. More than likely,
you or your family will have something from Nike. Nike has been around for over
half a century and has firmly established its famous brand name for
sports-related products. In the past 10 years or so, Nike’s share prices have
become particularly loved by investors, which has advanced 6-fold higher. I
wish I was clever enough to buy Nike years ago for long-term since Nike is not
only a great stock in terms of its share price appreciation, it is also a great
dividend growth stock. You know how much I love to own good dividend stocks for
retirement. In the past 20 years since it started to pay dividends, it has
grown its dividends by an annual compounding rate over 15%. You rarely see this
kind of high growth dividend stocks from great companies! In the past 6 months,
the euphoria for Nike has faded a bit and its share prices have declined by
about 20%. I have been waiting for a sign that its short-term downtrend is
ended. I think we have got one now: Nike was reacting very positively to poor news. A couple of days
ago, Nike issued a rather disappointed earning report and overnight its shares
declined by 6%. But amazingly, the next trading day totally turned the tide
wave in favor of Nike and it had actually closed much higher by about a 2%
gain. This kind of price action is quite bullish and its momentum indicator is
also a positive uptrend. I think the recent selloffs for Nike have likely been
over. This is the entry point I’d like
to take to accumulate Nike shares!
