Nike Stock Surges 15% on Earnings Beat and Tariff Mitigation Strategy
Nike shares soared 15% following robust quarterly results and a detailed plan to offset $1 billion in projected tariff costs. The athleticwear giant announced supply chain adjustments, factory partnerships, and selective price hikes to neutralize trade policy impacts.
