Diamond Member Pelican Press 0 Posted April 17, 2024 Diamond Member Share Posted April 17, 2024 Nike shares may be forming a triple bottom. How to bet on a comeback using options Nike has underperformed the market and its sector since mid-2021, but recently growth expectations from analysts have bottomed. With China’s growth showing signs of a rebound and valuation near its historical low, it could be time for a comeback. We’ll discuss how to set up an options trade to bet on a turnaround. Nike (NKE) has formed a triple bottom at the $90 support level over the past 3 years and recently it just bounced higher off this support. With a gap above at $100, our short-term upside target would be to fill that gap and $105 resistance level above that. Nike currently trades at the lower end of its historical valuation at 24 times forward earnings, which is a 20% discount to its historical average and well below the 30- to 40-times it traded for the previous few years. With growth expectations starting to recover on the back of China growth and the Paris Olympics this year, Nike is looking at a second half recovery of sales declines. The trade Options are expensive on NKE at the moment with an implied volatility rank above 60%, so I suggest using a vertical spread to offset the cost of buying upside calls. I’m going out to the June expiration to buy the $92.5/$100 call vertical at a $2.99 Debit. This entails: Buy June $92.50 Calls @ $4.53 Sell June $100 Calls @ $1.54 This strategy will risk a total of $299 per contract if NKE is below $92.50 at expiration and potentially profit $451 per contract is NKE is above $100 at expiration.
