Nike Booted From S&P 100 After Nearly 18-Year Run
Nike is officially leaving the S&P 100 index after a run lasting nearly 18 years. The departure is scheduled to take effect on September 21. Trading under the ticker NKE on the New York Stock Exchange, the company's shares are currently hovering near 52-week and 12-year lows. The stock trades around $38.39, holding a consensus Hold rating with a price target of $52.94. This downward trajectory includes a 38 percent tumble in 2026 alone, culminating in a steep 78 percent decline from previous highs that analysts view as potential capitulation.
Why it matters
The removal from the premier index highlights a sharp downturn for the 62-year-old retail giant amid broader divergence within the athletic goods sector. While competitors like Dick's Sporting Goods and Lululemon face their own struggles in the red, Nike's losses reflect deeper institutional and market challenges. Losing its spot in the S&P 100 alters the stock's profile for major index funds and institutional portfolios.
