1/2 Long
$NKE — Tactical (1–5d) • Earnings
Plan: If Q3 gross margin is at least 41%, go long
$NKE at first session open after earnings.
NIKE reports Q3 FY26 after the close, with investors focused on gross margin, North America wholesale trends, inventories, and Greater China demand. Prior quarters showed gross margin of 42.2% then 40.6%. If Q3 gross margin reaches at least 41%, it would signal better-than-feared margin stabilization, easing concerns on product mix and discounts and supporting a relief rally in
$NKE.
Risk: Invalid if shares close below their pre-earnings close by the second post-earnings session close. • Valid until 2026-04-06 20:00 ET
Trade credibility: actionability ★★★★☆ | timeliness ★★★★☆ | clarity ★★★★☆
