  • Nike Stock Down Over 70%: Value or Value Trap?
    April 30, 2026, 12:44 PM EDT. Nike's share price has plunged more than 70% since its 2021 peak, sparking debate over whether it presents a buying opportunity. The decline stems from strategic missteps, including an aggressive direct-to-consumer push that led to excess inventory and discounting, hurting margins and brand strength. Growth has slowed, particularly in China, causing a 10% drop in fiscal 2025 revenue. While Nike's price-to-sales ratio has dropped to 1.5 from 5.8, signaling value territory, the price-to-earnings ratio stands at 26.6, within historical norms, reflecting uncertain earnings. For investors, the stock may be cheap only if Nike can restore margins and grow earnings per share. The key question remains whether Nike's turnaround efforts will succeed and earnings will recover.
