and the Betsy Ross Flag Shoe is having another effect ... enhancing the brand's appeal to investors.
Nike shares are surging in the wake of the company's decision to recall its special Betsy Ross Flag Air Max 1 USA sneakers after Kaepernick complained the 13-star flag design was offensive because it's been co-opted by several white nationalist groups. on the sneakers following Kaepernick's objections earlier this week, Nike shares have seen a 2 percent increase since Tuesday, adding nearly $3 BILLION to the shoe giant's market value.
Friday afternoon, trading Nike shares were up slightly to $86.62 and the company's market value is now $136.38 billion.
Liberals don’t realize they are getting played by Nike. Nike & Colin dream up controversy & libs fall for it. Libs love to buy products from companies that are anti-American.
Someone needs to educate that jerk. Send him to school far away from America. Learn your history dumbo.
Bye bye nike 📉📉📉
Fake liberal news, couldn’t be farther fro the truth
I've lost all respect for Nike. Never had any respect for Kaepernick. Screw em both
Hmmmmm....was mr hypocrisy outraged during Obama's 2nd inauguration?
I hope they tumble all the way down. Never will I or any of my family members wear Nike again. I threw out my on the 4th!! Proud of it also......
That’s a bunch of Bull...Let’s see the stocks falling👣😣⚡️🙋🏻♀️👨🏼⚖️🗽2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣0️⃣🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The next time you hear about a protest of the thirteen original flag made by Betsy Ross Betsy Ross was a Quaker Quakers were all adamant abolitionists. Betsy Ross was a female entrepreneur who ran her own furniture upholstery shop. Maybe you should protest something else.
Colin Uptohisneckincrap is running the Company.
Not because of me, Nike is off my list. Besides New Balance has a line that is made in the USA...
Duh. Did anybody think that wasn't their strategy?
Yes because republikkkans are really stupid. Look who they voted for. Nike has great marketing they know how dumb these people are.
I support Nike. They know the world is made of white skinned, black, coffee-pigmented, men, women, heterosexual, bisexual, male, female, trans, rich, not rich people. We all want to live our best lives. That’s all. We believe in just doing it.
It's official, Nike only wants leftist to buy their products... no problem, don't need them, there's plenty of other options.
Yes, that's correct😀🧡
Colon Party Pooper must be racist against blacks. He hates Betsy Ross Flag sneaker and Betsy Ross was against slavery & hated slavery. So if a man hates a women who hates slavery, that makes that man, Collin, FOR slavery.
Wow he is always increasing the stocks
I will go get some Nike’s

Landiggy11 I told y’all
Some I think Nike was really playing both sides of the argument for more sells off a lighting rod issue 😂 😉👍🏾 Well played Nike well played 🖐🏾😂 I don't think it'll work a third time though.
What do you expect from poorly educated, low IQ people?
FuriouhsStyles A slight bump, but still lower than it was at beginning of May.
SURGE? bahahahhahahah try again .
Fuckrs at tmz support race baiting and lying Harvey- shame....that's right, u have none
soledadobrien Conservative boycott means nothing. Nike is for athletic people.
Why don’t you write how much the stock actually went up? That’s right... 62 cents. That’s hardly a surge 😂 NikeHatesAmerica kapernicksucks
Colin Kaepernick is as fake as Jussie Smollett
IngrahamAngle seanhannity How does this even happen...?
Just totally perplexing to me...
Don’t hate the player, hate the game
itsdamone Nike is playing us
FILA
Hey dude read up a little on Betsy. How’s that Nike shoe taste?
Looked at the stock trend. Yes, it’s rising, after having fallen in the last 6 weeks. I’m not sure the term I’d use for the current increase as “surging” though.
So what Nike saying is that we will beat the drum of division and racism to raise our profit margin. What a wonderful company.
A marketing ploy to feed the Zomie Herd that gives a 💩 about the Nike culture! Sheep be Sheep! Bah!
OmarKelly Yet another false narrative Omar. The stocks were going up before that came out and actually dropped once the news came out and are just now recovering. That's not a surge and to pretend causality exist is false. But that's what the left does.
Customers at the mall: MAAAAN! This political controversy makes me soooo mad! I just want to go and buy some God Damn Nike-ys!
Just a shame Nike and kap as to who Betsy was and what she stood for. Literally stood for the same as kap but his dumb ass wouldn’t know that! 😂😂😂
Hard to believe that Nike stock goes up when they do something unAmerican. Must be a lot of American haters out there showing their support for American bashing. Why do they still live in the country that they hate? If America is so bad, why is there an immigration crisis?
🤷🏻♀️
therichardkirby ClayTravis
Nike right now
I can't believe this.
The flag also represents freedom of speech with he uses to his full advantage. Don't like the flag, leave the country.
I bet the MAGAts are seething. StayMad
SteveBrant Good point...💋
There was a rush on Converse
Was this just another sick ploy by NIKE to gin up publicity?
soledadobrien GO KAEPERNICK.
Fake News as usual! 😊
Kap is shedding light on the fact that, America has been 'great' only for a few, who have benefited for the mistreatment of many, that great American feeling you get about the 🇺🇸 represents ideals most of the founding fathers are indeed hypocritical of... Theres no 1 way to be 🇺🇸
👍😎
👎
✊🏾
soledadobrien Fantastic!👏🏼
Such amazing ignorance!
I’m tired of seeing his ugly self..inside and out!
So now we know they probably did it deliberately for that reason. That is the only scenario that makes sense. nikesucks
I threw all of my Nike crap out, I can’t support a company that doesn’t support the USA. Shame on Nike nikestore and shame on that no talent idiot.
Check out our Betsy Ross sneakers, high heels, and flip flops!!
Surging It’s up 0.72%- surging is what’s happening to the rest of the stock market under Trump’s economy, not 62 cents a share.
ColinCancer Deportcolin TRUMP2020Landside
Are we really surprised? It’s Nike people. Nike. If kids working in sweatshops to assemble couldn’t stop sales, Betsy Ross won’t.
Kap no cap he making a wave still
For me, I dont want their shoes that I've been buying for 40 years. I'm one person so it doesn't matter. I'm a proud American period. No one is going to change that.
derrickcuse Stocks surge just like Trump polls plummet
Nike knows who’s waiting in line before a drop and who buys a single pair every 5 years they stain mowing the grass while being racist
Of course it was planned why wait Monday for release of shoes to pull them when we all knew about kicks a month ago.
For one. I dont purchase nor like to see your commercials.
Nike stocks rose less than 1%. Define 'surging'. 🤔
bluemiiints Loving these boycotts
Short term. Eventually people will run out of money trying to prove something. It costs me nothing to not buy it.
👿Colin👹🖕🏾
Went and balled out with NIKE gear today. Can’t wait to shop Nike again. Thx
Exactly! Nike is on the right side of history with this one.
Don30949646 That’s pretty disgraceful. He is an idiot and Nike should be ashamed to support this.
Not from Americans. PLUS THAT SHIT IS NOT TRUE.
Get over it!
Boost is life....Nike blows now
Sad... it’s just sad that it has become “cool” to undermine THE flag! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 ProudAmerican America USA
Kaepernick is a fool. People will remember as an American hater
It was a totally manufactured controversy. This was planned. People are sheep.
Buy buy Nike. never again. No shirts no shoes no shorts done !
Dear Nike, Didn't know that the fight against racism is another marketing strategy...oh wait yes I did. Why fix the problem when you can profit from it?
Check it in 2 weeks.
hope ClayTravis doesn't get a paper cut checking the price of nike stock in a newspaper like some sort of outta touch gen-x'er...
soledadobrien 2% in 3 days is not a surge. It's normal peaks and valley's.
Not sure why!
OmarKelly This country is self destructing
OmarKelly I will be buying under armour from now on!!
He is a no body that’s wants attention
BUY STOCKS!!!!
soledadobrien IngrahamAngle Nike says thank you 🤣🤣🤣
soledadobrien Threw my Nike shoes in the trash today. They went much farther than any of Colin Kaepernick’s passes.
Hating the country for profit yeah who wouldn't be proud?
soledadobrien So how's that boycott working?
Why is Kap even riding with this slave shop company. I understand he was blackballed from the league and has to make a living, but chief, this ain't it.
A surge? It’s up by $1. Stop it TMZ...😒
Always bet on black 💯👌🏾
Lies
Shocked
soledadobrien Step 1: Trigger Drumpf supporters (this is easy just show them a brown person calling them out on literally anything). Step 2: create enormous corporate wealth at the “backlash.”
FoxNews
😂🤣😂
Great
soledadobrien tedcruz dougducey THANKS! 😘
This guy is so confused.
My conservative boss complained about this today. Knows white supremacists were using flag in recruitment. Says Nike should've just made shoes. I tell him Nike is worldwide, their choice. I ask didn't you guy's burn your gear like 5 months ago? Why stick up for the KKK? No reply
soledadobrien
OmarKelly Not really. It closed at 0.72% and down 0.20% after hours... and at the time of this tweet, it was up 0.73%. I love Nike, but I hate bad reporting...
OmarKelly
Well, look at the demographic that buys their product.
CurtisScoon Conservtards and SJWs are literally the easiest people to trigger in this country. I mean with all the shit that is going on in this country who gets this upset by a Nike saying they not going to make a Betsy Ross shoe.
It’s up 1.5% and that’s weak and misleading.
soledadobrien senatemajldr Thanks bro. Good looking out.
😂
Nike is still WINNING! Buy Nike stock everybody.
soledadobrien
soledadobrien Oh for gods sake. This is beyond reddiculous. We’re all human beings.
CurtisScoon It went up like a dollar a share. I was all ready to buy in but that was it. Like one percent.
NYSportsGuys5 Rod_Noir
soledadobrien The “IT” factor!
soledadobrien Failing forward. The Colin Kaepernick story.
Love. This.
How stupid is this world getting by hearing every stupidity that a poor resented person throws as a race card.... Stop stupidity over our history and patriotism! Maybe he should move to Afganistan or any other African country! NIKE stop being STUPID!
I'm just here to watch all the Trump goofs get triggered by the free market.
At this point Nike is just trolling....
Kaepernick is pissing people off, who got 'payback' by burning their Nike gear which was already paid for (dumb) and now buying knockoff shoes with the BR flag (suckers). All I know is if this keeps up, my Nike stock will soar and I will be able to retire early. Only in America!
karenhunter Nike is doing Trump. They are not gonna upset that base!!!
soledadobrien BlackStarPower
CurtisScoon 'Surge' is a strong word
soledadobrien Hehehehehe. That’s exactly what the right did NOT want. Oh well.
StormieJenny SenTedCruz is boycotting Nike bc he thinks ColinKapernick is dispectful to our flag. Yet Cruz is host to filthy concentration camps in TX. Kaepernick highlights the physical abuse & killing of Black Americans by Police Officers in all 50 States, TakeAKnee.
OmarKelly Click bait
OmarKelly Yea sure
Well yeah, it’s a continuing publicity stunt. Nike execs are trolling geniuses.
A lot of unamerican assholes.. buying the stock.
soledadobrien No thank you
Nike is playing chess while Conservatives play checkers.
soledadobrien The republicans are so dumb... make it a controversy and sales would go up...
Nike worried about Kaeperdick’s feelweens about a flag he says represents salvery. Stitched on shoes by child slave labor over-seas. You can’t make this stuff up.
😂
💵💵💵
soledadobrien Trumpers, rise up and burn your Nikes!
soledadobrien Well done, you’re pushing a false narrative. Nothing powerful or substantial a minor change in stock pricing. Show me a large net increase of new customers over old customers and then I might believe you a little bit.
Nike was clearly pimping the right wing folks lol
soledadobrien tedcruz I guess you are hitting them where it hurts.... oh wait.... I guess not.
OmarKelly Capitalism is tricky.....these 'boycotts' tell people they can't or shouldn't have something.....we are seeing what happens next.
LOL good job conservatives! That'll really show Nike!
soledadobrien cedrictillman
Is that why you cowed to that traitor! My plain and simple response. I will never by Nike products ever ever again! That probably won't effect shareholder value but piss off will ya!
soledadobrien deja vu like a mutherfucka.the same people were outraged and then look what happen..i guess ppl like controversy
soledadobrien There's no gerrymandering or Electoral College for shoe purchases.
.RepLipinski pay attention
soledadobrien But Ted Cruz and that governor and all those MAGAts!
soledadobrien Wait! What? How can their stocks surge if tedcruz isn’t buying Nikes anymore? I need to rethink everything I knew about market economics...
💪💙❤️👍😎
It was at 84 and went to 86. Hardly a “surge”
So done nikeboycott
soledadobrien tedcruz
soledadobrien I wish conservatives would boycott my bank account
soledadobrien Boom.
soledadobrien Free publicity 🤷🏽♂️ lol
soledadobrien They always do.
BigOShow No accounting for the stupidity of welfare recipients.
Kaepernick7 Hahaha 😂 -“I’m Colon Kapernick I believe in something( although stupid) -Nike- yeah! keep on lil fella. speedtorevenue
The stock is a little over $86/share. People acting like it’s Berkshire Hathaway. 🤦♂️
Nike sucks
Nullshit
When will they call Obama a racist for flying the same flag?
He ain’t shit and neither is their shoes.
Will never buy Nike they are so lucky this generation has mommy and daddy’s money to buy your crap god bless America at the rate we are going with these spoiled assholes it won’t be land of free much longer
Nike Loves Slaves its why their products are outsourced from the US . Lip Service. Child Labor. Hypocrites.
Yeah...I’m sure it did....
Out of all the people in the United States. They use this moron. Good luck. I won't be buying Nikes no more
Can’t imagine!!
Funny thing... The Democratic Party is the party of slavery. They created Jim Crow and fought integration and civil rights tooth and nail. Until he died not long ago, they even harbored a top level Klansman within their congressional ranks.
That nose could wear a pair 👟
Money hungry Nike
Stupidest thing this year We know it’s all about $$$. Stocks were up Nike sucks Nike
Lies
fakeoutrage Nikewherearetheshoes?
Friggin unreal. Only in America...…………..
Sad
Let's be honest. Only the racist people are making a big deal and mad about this. I love Nike for doing the right thing.
SimplyCarla7 Make a Harriet Tubman shoe Nike
TMZ making another famous
Is this why?
Publicity stunt that everyone is falling for .
Stock price and profits are not the same thing. An increase in stock price not supported by an economic basis, will fall. I’m going to short sell.
Not because of these fools, it because of the Women’s World Cup Jersey’s. They are the number one seller of any jersey. Get you FACTS Right
Betsy Ross American flag sales are surging too.
I got no problem that your a white slave owner in 2019 Mr Mark Parker, just the flags you make them put on the shoes.
TALENTEDBLONDE 👎
I would never buy a Nike product again (slave labor)
What a shame
..[Betsy Ross] came from a devout Quaker family--and Quakers led anti-slavery activism in America...Betsy’s home colony of Pennsylvania was the 1st to abolish slavery – in 1780, 7 yrs before the Constitution.' -- Michael Medved
Cuz we fixed their shoe 😏😏
Wake up people. Kap is the future.
Bullshit..... i just checked. Crap fake reporting as usual
we should all go to Nike and contact customer support and ask for the Betsy Ross shoes. If one stupid person can make them change then 1 million can make them change back.
So I guess we should just ignore what that POS does to this country
Rann_gme
He looks Middle Eastern.
Good job Kaepernick7. You might not have boughton the shoes but Nike is sure surging thanks to you. Crybaby. The league is still not going to hire you back. Stop trying.
When Kap was chosen as the next spokesperson and Nike's Stock tanked, immediately followed by a surge. Turns out Nike's worth really tanked. The surge was Nike liquidating assets to show a capital gain. Lmao. I wouldn't be surprised if it happened again.
If that's even only for a minute.
ryenarussillo
It’s a dam shame that White America has a problem with Kap correcting the foreign maker of the shoe on American History. Unification under 50 STARS IS WHAT AMERICA IS SUPPOSE TO BE ABOUT!!! Tell em KAP!!!
SimplyCarla7 Make a Harriet TubmanNike
Nike out here making MONEY MOVES 💃🏾🕺🏽❤️
Short term. Nike knows their target market hates America (the youth). This manufactured crisis created excitement among their target market to purchase Nike products.
People are fools. Nike is just using people's emotions to keep getting Richer. The Betsy Ross flag? She was an abolitionist. The democratic party is more of a symbol of racism and slavery then that flag is. Stop being used
It's frightening the way that ignorance has been weaponized.
gonna see Nike at the finish line
Nike will be fine, I still expect over 100 by years end
They knew what exactly to do. Nike was the one who told Colin was behind it. They knew sale would go up.
TomiLahren lookin at this like
of course a football player that no one wants, can sway the new york stock exchange with one tweet.
It's amazing how the people who hate this country stay in the shadows, until they have a reason to demonstrate their hate.
Smh dude making money on getting y'all triggered
❤️
86.74 USD +0.54 (0.63%) It was 89.20 April 18 😂😂😂
RealCandaceO Go buy some Nike Stock. It sure pays.
If you've got the $$$$$.....they've got the shoe!!!
44 years ago another marketing idea worked NEW COKE This was pure marketing. But the left loves it. The same people calling the detention centers concentration camps buy shoes made by slave labor.
Remember that game against the Bears when he had 6 yards passing in the first half ? 😂😂
Nike cancels out Betsy Ross flag on shoes because of what Kaepernick is protesting all awhile Nike's logo is on majority of sports and US Olympics that have Americam Flag, the same flag Kaepernick knees to. Doesnt make sense
He's not even black. And the whole united states was built on slavery so why haven't they band america yet?
Disgusting!!!
Y'all should be talking bout 20 dollars and harriet
It bothers me that people choose to ignore why Nike cancelled the shoes.
It was just a promotional ploy
Right...
Buuutttt... nooooo.... certain crazy folks say this is NOT a good idea... they MUST be roght
Shocker. Nike throws Kap under the bus which gives Nike free press from people who love them and people who hate them and they win
Brilliant advertising campaign by Nike. People will bite the bait every time when it comes to race
Of course it did. I am heavily invested in Nike, a big supporter of Kaepernick7. Good stuff 👏🏽👏🏽
It’s trailing the S&P 500 sinced they signed him though 🤷🏻♂️
Happy for them but they won't get a dime from me. I refuse to support such a company or the chosen spokesman.
Children in the Nike sweatshops of 3rd world countries are jumping for joy...NOT!
Kaepernick sucks
Lol
Oh exactly! That’s all they care about the bottom line is money money money money money.
Nike SUCKS
Job security for the 8 year olds in their overseas factories.
Everything in Trumps stock market is good. And going up a little over a dollar isnt surging.
Surging
And voters are flocking over to the Trump train.
What’s the big deal?
Hollywood swapped their Prada handbags for all things Nike... temporarily ~
🤢
MAGA heads exploding...
