Is Tim Cook’s purchase a bullish signal for Nike stock?

Insider buying is often seen as positive because leaders buy with their own capital. Tim Cook’s roughly US$3 million purchase, about C$4.0 million, boosted sentiment and drove an intraday pop. It is a confidence marker, not a guarantee. The next proof will be margins, China trends, and inventory progress in upcoming results.

What key levels should I watch on Nike stock near term?

Support sits around the lower Bollinger near US$57.4 and the recent low near US$58.9. Resistance appears near US$61 to US$62, then the 50‑day average around US$64.5. A close above the 50‑day would improve momentum. A break below US$57 weakens the setup and argues for tighter risk controls.

How do currency moves affect Canadian investors in Nike stock?

Returns translate from USD to CAD, so a stronger loonie can reduce your CAD return and a weaker loonie can boost it. If FX risk matters, consider keeping USD cash for purchases or using partial hedging tools where available. Always check your broker’s FX spread and fees before placing trades.

What are the main catalysts for the Nike turnaround plan?

Three areas stand out: gross margin expansion from better mix and pricing, faster inventory turns with leaner stock, and improving China sell‑through. Clear guidance on wholesale orders and direct‑to‑consumer momentum would also help. Watch the March 19, 2026 earnings date for updated targets and commentary on demand and margins.
