Original caption

Nike is being removed from the S&P 100 after 18 years as the sportswear giant’s stock continues to struggle. 👟📉 S&P Dow Jones Indices has confirmed Nike will leave the prestigious index as part of its latest rebalancing, ending a run that began in 2008. The move follows a prolonged decline in Nike’s share price, which has fallen sharply from its 2021 peak amid slowing sales, increased competition and challenges in key markets including China. Nike will remain in the S&P 500, but its removal from the S&P 100 is a symbolic blow for one of the world’s most recognisable brands. The company will be replaced by Sandisk when the changes take effect later this month. #ThisIsMoney #Money #News #UK
