V. Portfolio Manager Decision

Rating: Underweight

Executive Summary: We assign an Underweight rating on NKE (current price $35.30) over a 3-6 month horizon, targeting a reduced portfolio allocation of 40% to 50% of benchmark weight and avoiding new long entries. Existing holders at full weight should execute a phased trim rather than dumping everything at the market: sell an initial 25% tranche in the current $35.30 to $36.38 zone and place limit orders to trim a second 25% tranche into overhead resistance between the Daily SuperTrend ($36.38), Upper Bollinger Band ($36.87), and 50-day SMA ($37.59). To prevent whipsaw churn, we reject buying back trimmed shares at $37.59; instead, enforce a two-tiered downside defense by executing any remaining planned trim on a daily close below the Lower Bollinger Band ($33.82) and anchoring a hard capital-preservation stop on the remaining core position at $31.50. Only reconsider upgrading toward neutral weight if NKE achieves consecutive daily closes above $37.59 on expanding volume exceeding 40 million shares.
