S&P Dow Jones Indices said it will remove Nike from the S&P 100 before trading begins on September 21. Nike’s shares have recently traded around $36, leaving it the smallest-weight component in the price-weighted Dow Jones Industrial Average. Goldman Sachs, the Dow’s highest-weighted stock, has traded around $968—about 27 times Nike’s price. CEO Elliott Hill said on a June earnings call that the company is operating in a tougher macro environment with rising pressure on consumer traffic and discretionary spending.
