Boycott NIKE!

[Wallet]

Most NFL players support other players right to kneel,even Brady and Aaron Rodgers have publicly supported Kap.Kap has never had a problem with his teammates and they say good things about him.

That has nothing to do with the statement. According to your post he was offered a job, you can play just don't kneel. He said no, putting himself ahead of the team.

Get off your high-horse, his NFL unemployment is his own doing. However he seems to be the apple of Nike's eye, at least for the moment. As soon as Nike's sales drop that will change.

You went from 400 shares yesterday afternoon to 3,000 this morning? Much must have occurred since then to warrant your increased exposure. How splendid.

One general reality is that any public company that gets involved in a divisive political debate experiences a drop in the price of their stock.

It does not matter which side they take... taking any side causes a loss in corporate value.

Which is why public or private companies should never insert themselves into this nonsense.

He’s already covered and reshorted 4 Times since your last post and don’t forget to count Vanzandts odd lot.

Personally I don't buy Nike, they don't market size 16. That being said, when a Company, not the personal beliefs of the owners or board, but the Co. injects itself in political discussion then they need to accept the heat from those with different views.

There was a time when ads were aimed at the general audience in hopes of swaying them towards their product on the basis of performance, value, prestige etc.

This simply divides.

I disagree. Trump is the divider and Nike is being true to its brand and taking corporate responsibility. Their brand is high performance athletics. How can they not stand behind a quarterback who was blackballed for taking a stand against racial disparity in the justice system?

It’s crazy to me that more athletic companies haven’t taken a stand to support Kapernick. Their only excuse is fear and I think now that Nike has taken a stand against the mob other companies will follow because kapernick, who is not perfect, is right.

Besides they don’t sell Nike at Walmart.

?
Sure they do.
Millions and millions of them per year. Not to mention other sports equipment by NKE.

No one is denying Kapernick the right to protest, just don't use the Flag and the National Anthem as a medium. Disrespecting such are seen in the same light as demonstrators burning it.

Nike has just placed itself in this light, anti-American.

Pretty sure he makes more than that.

Will you share some trades with us today?
I'm being serious.... I'll follow you on one or two.
Might as well lol... see what happens.

Maybe since I've been calling him a chicken recently he is trying harder but that is his self-reported income last time I saw it. I've never doubted Max E. is relatively honest, particularly after observing some consistency in fairly low numbers. It does not mean he had not got something going on in property or other asset classes. Just he is such a tit sometimes..

I scalp a few futures in parallel so by the time you read this.. it is gone. This very moment:

It is too unwieldy to share futures scalps, particularly when you trade them in parallel like this. I was in a group of guys who were all legit profitable, with reasonably similar methodologies/mythologies and nobody followed trades. Useful heads ups on levels, faster explanations of WTF just happened moments. Perhaps there was some drive to push harder in friendly competition for a couple.

Since I hired a trading assistant who is smarter than I am just not as ferocious I was not able to keep track of both so I dropped out. Still I missed the comforting noise so I shout a pigeons here instead.

No. Kapernick is right and you’re lost in the tizzy of the moment. There was so much controversy around the black athletes raising a fist during the national anthem at the 1968 Olympics, today no one bats an eye at the below photo because they were right. Same thing will happen with Kapernick and Nike knows this.

Hannity Blasts Nike, Kaepernick: Soldiers, Officers, Firefighters Are the Ones Who 'Sacrificed Everything'

So.. now the star spangled is the high ground of firefighters. Next it will be disrespect to premature babies and cute puppies with sore paws.

What a truly awful man.

Is this the black man who you bragged about anally raping with a gun, right after you pulled it out?
