How this is calculated: We use a Growth Decay Model: starting with analyst consensus growth (adjusted above) and gradually slowing it down to a long-term terminal rate (4%) by Year 5. This provides a more realistic valuation than assuming constant hyper-growth. We then apply a 25.0x Exit PE.

In-depth Analysis How we analyze

Valuation Analysis: NKE is currently trading at $61.81, which is considered slightly low relative to its 30-day fair value range of $60.92 to $65.74. From a valuation perspective, the stock is trading at a discount (Forward PE: 26.3) compared to its historical average (30.7). Remarkably, the market is currently pricing in an annual earnings decline of 5.1% over the next few years. This aligns with recent fundamental challenges.

Technical Outlook: Technically, NKE is in a strong uptrend. The price is currently testing key support at $61.36. A bounce from this level would confirm strength, while a break below could signal further downside.

Market Sentiment: The stock shows a mixed technical setup (40/100), with neutral trendline and momentum signals. Wall Street analysts see significant upside, with an average price target of $76.38 (+22.0%). Combining these factors, the current setup offers a favorable risk/reward ratio for buyers.
