Under Armour lost nearly $600 million of its value as a company Friday, as its stock plummeted by more than 4 percent after the CEO of a major footwear retailer said the latest version of its Steph Curry shoe wasn't doing well

Stephen Curry shoe sales fall hard, along with Under Armour stock

lol
he is not LeBron. He cant carry a line like LeBron can....no one can - at least no one active. Jordan of ocurse is the gold-standard.

Curry is obviously a great player and very very popular- he has very little baggage- but i think that Finals loss, plus adding Durant so he is no longer the focal point of the team- he has to share it- dont exactly help his endorsements.

Who wears UA shoes ??.


Exactly, nobody. If Steph was signed with reebok, they'd be hitting high sales #*'s. Underarmour is for fitness enthusiasts, and its tops, shorts, pants, socks, etc. Not shoes

one interesting thing i read is that Nike actually encouraged Durant to go to GSW because it would cut the knees right out from under Under Armour. Thats pretty interesting to think about.....Durant goes from a small market- to a big market- and raises his profile, while cutting Steph's profile- and lo and behold this type of things happen- shoe sales way down and the company's stock plummets.....

moral of the story? -- Nike is Nike...

yah...KD actually is fairly close to LeBron.....then its really not even close when you go down to 3rd. I think that Durant's move might have hurt himself somewhat in some peoples eyes- but i think moving to the Warriors- balances that out.

Jordan > Nike

Nike’s announcement of the 2016 annual sales numbers for Jordan Brand — which they separated from Nike’s basketball segment for the first time — showed that revenue for Jordan Brand is up 18 percent to $2.8 billion over 2015 numbers. Total Jordan Brand sales in 2016 doubled Nike’s overall basketball segment, which had revenues of $1.4 billion.

Maybe it has to do with the CEO talking Pro Trump...... So the magic stock market suddenly destroys the company.

So people dumped the stock just because the CEO is a Trump fan....

Couple of more bad quarters, and Nike will be able to buy them out at bargain basement price...
