10 Consumer Discretionary Stocks With Whale Alerts In Today's Session

Nike Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) is limping, not sprinting, to new lows. Down 30.16% in the past year and 17.85% in just the last month, the sneaker giant finds itself at the bottom of its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/52-week-highs-and-lows">52-week range</a> at $64.95.
With technical indicators flashing red, is there any sign of a turnaround, or is this stock set to stay in the bargain bin?

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Nike Stock Stuck In A Bearish Downtrend</h2>
Nike stock, at $65.74 is stuck below every key moving average:
<ul>
<li>Eight-day simple moving average (SMA): $69.93 (Bearish)</li>
<li>20-day SMA: $73.84 (Bearish)</li>
<li>50-day SMA: 74.36 (Bearish)</li>
<li>200-day SMA: 78.39 (Bearish)</li>
</ul>
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator sits at -2.34, further reinforcing the bearish momentum. Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dropped to 26.93, indicating that Nike stock is deep in oversold territory—potentially ripe for a short-term bounce, but still struggling overall.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Selling Pressure &amp; A Slowing Business</h2>
The downtrend isn't just a technical issue &#8211; Nike's fundamentals aren't helping either. The company recently <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/20/nike-nke-q3-2025-earnings.html">warned</a> of a double-digit sales decline in its fourth fiscal quarter due to tariffs, weak consumer confidence, and a sluggish turnaround strategy.
During the critical holiday quarter, sales fell 9%, largely due to weak demand in China.
Adding to the pressure, Nike is still working through excess inventory and outdated styles, forcing markdowns that are weighing on margins. The company expects its gross margin to shrink by as much as five percentage points in the current quarter as it clears the backlog.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Verdict: Oversold, But Not A Slam Dunk</h2>
Nike's stock is clearly in a bearish trend, weighed down by weak fundamentals and deteriorating technicals. While its RSI suggests oversold conditions that could spark a short-lived bounce, the broader downtrend remains intact. 
Until the company finds its footing with stronger sales and improved margins, investors may want to lace up their running shoes and wait for a clearer buying opportunity.

Citigourp Global Markets 2% Protected Notes Linked To The Djia

U.S. stock futures gained on Monday, continuing the momentum from Friday's rally. Futures of major benchmark indices were in the green in premarket trading, pointing to rising bullish sentiments among investors.
The markets will look towards the Trump administration's actions closely this week – reports suggest that the government could limit the scope of the planned tariffs.
While the Trump administration is still expected to launch reciprocal tariffs against major trading partners of the U.S., critical industries like automobile and semiconductors are no longer expected to be hit by tariffs, for the time being, according <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-22/trump-plans-his-tariff-liberation-day-with-more-targeted-push">to</a> a Bloomberg report.

Insights From Analysts:
Analysts sought to brush aside concerns of a bear market, stating that it's not as much of a concern and that it is likely a rotational behavior.
"Statistically, this type of action is extreme and typically comes at the end of a bear market in a waterfall sell-off and not right after an all-time high. A simple reflexive rebound to the 20-day moving average would wipe out half the decline," said Ivan Martchev, investment strategist at Navellier &amp; Associates.
Martchev pointed to a drastic decline in VIX, also known as the fear gauge index, which fell nearly 10% and 11.72% in two sessions last week.
He added that the chances of the S&amp;P 500 making an all-time high in the second quarter this year are "better than ever," but this is contingent on President Donald Trump registering a few trade war wins.
Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group, brushed aside bearish concerns, too.
He pointed to the sharp 34% decline in the S&amp;P 500 five years ago on this day due to the COVID-19-related shutdowns.
"The S&amp;P 500 was up nearly 200% (total return) earlier this year off those lows. Remember that the next time you hear some scary headlines," he said.

S&P 500 Ends 4-Week Losing Streak: Investor Fear Eases Slightly, But Greed Index Remains In 'Extreme Fear' Zone

On Friday, JPMorgan analyst Christopher Horvers reiterated the Neutral rating on Academy Sports and Outdoors, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASO#NASDAQ">ASO</a>), <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ASO/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">raising the price forecast to $54 from $52.</a>
Yesterday, the firm reported fourth-quarter adjusted earnings per share of $1.96,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44421964/academy-sports-beats-q4-eps-estimates-comparable-sales-dip-3" rel="noreferrer noopener">beating the street view of $1.83</a>.&nbsp;Quarterly sales of $1.676 billion (down 6.6% year over year) missed the analyst consensus estimate of $1.677 billion by a hairline.
The analyst notes that Academy Sports has made progress in improving new store site selection for the second half of 2024, following underwhelming performance when it initially started its unit growth story in 2022.

Furthermore, the company's IT improvements and plans show promise in enhancing the performance of its existing stores, Horvers writes.
Academy Sports is also expanding its Nike, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) product assortment to 145 of its 300+ locations, as well as on its website, starting this April, aiming to compete with Dick&#8217;s Sporting Goods Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKS#NYSE">DKS</a>) for brand access.
However, Horvers points out that the macroeconomic environment presents challenges for Academy Sports, particularly compared to competitors like Dick&#8217;s Sporting, due to its higher exposure to lower-income consumers.
Despite this, the analyst remains neutral on Academy Sports, acknowledging its attractive valuation but expressing &#8220;uncertainty&#8221; about how much growth the company can achieve given the current market conditions.
The analyst models 1Q/FY25 comps of -3.5%/flat, respectively.
Price Action: ASO shares are trading higher by 1.14% to $47.96 at last check Friday.

Academy Sports' Growth Potential Uncertain Amid Macroeconomic Challeneges: Analyst Explains Why

Wall Street remains in the red heading into the end of the week, with major indexes posting modest midday losses in New York, though well off <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets">the session&#8217;s earlier lows.</a>
At a White House event, President Donald Trump said there would be flexibility on the upcoming tariffs, easing investor concerns that their planned implementation on April 2 could trigger major disruptions.

The news helped improve risk sentiment in equities, while gold is having its worst session since late February, down 1% as traders scale back positions in safe-haven assets.
The U.S. dollar reversed course to notch weekly gains after two consecutive weeks of losses. Among mega-cap stocks, Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>) and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) led the way, climbing 4.9% and 4.2%, respectively.
Boeing, up 11% for the week, is on track for its strongest weekly performance since July 2023 after securing a multibillion-dollar contract to design and build a next-generation fighter jet for the U.S. Air Force—beating out rival Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>), which fell 6%.
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) dipped 0.4% to below $84,000 but is still holding onto weekly gains.

Wall Street Trims Losses As Boeing Eyes Best Week In Nearly 2 Years: What's Driving Markets Friday?

RBC Capital analyst Piral Dadhania maintains Nike (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) with a Sector Perform and lowers the price target from $67 to $66.

JP Morgan Maintains Neutral on Nike, Lowers Price Target to $64

Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) analysts provide a cautious tone for the apparel company's turnaround and short-term growth after the company's third-quarter financial results.
The Nike Analysts: 
<ul>
<li>Stifel analyst Jim Duffy maintained a Hold rating on Nike with a $75 price target.</li>
<li>Goldman Sachs analyst Brooke Roach maintained a Buy rating and lowered the price target from $90 to $88.</li>
<li>Needham analyst Tom Nikic maintained a Buy rating and lowered the price target from $80 to $75.</li>
<li>Telsey analyst Cristina Fernandez maintained a Market Perform rating with a $80 price target.</li>
<li>Oppenheimer analyst Brian Nagel maintained an Outperform rating with a $120 price target.</li>
</ul>
Stifel on NKE: Nike's return to growth could be several quarters away, Duffy said in a new investor note.
"Strategically, the marketplace cleanup is on track, though we expect a return to healthy growth to take several quarters before positive revenue inflection," Duffy said.
The analyst said China remains a challenge for Nike.
While Nike has a "market-leading position," Duffy said the company is in the "middle innings" of a cleanup with no upside at current levels.
"At the current multiple, we believe a return to growth and margin improvement is discounted in shares suggesting risk/reward largely in balance at current levels."
Goldman Sachs on NKE: The apparel company's strategy is on track, Roach said in a new investor note.
"We believe today's results provided fodder for both bulls and bears in the quarter, and thus expect the stock to remain heavily debated going forward," Roach said.
The analyst said Nike is "early in its turnaround journey."
Roach said management's commentary showed pressure on the company to develop new products, reposition the Nike digital marketplace, clean up inventory, and reset its wholesale business.
"We continue to believe that NKE's strategic actions are the appropriate moves to reset Nike to return to future growth."
Needham on NKE: The apparel company's strategy of "win now" could be working, but a return to growth is moving later and later, Nikic said in a new investor note.
"We continue to have confidence in CEO Elliott Hill, but it will take time for the bull thesis to play out," Nikic said.
One of the analyst's key concerns is inventory with Nike saying it was working with retailers to take back unsold inventory to make room for new products. This could lead to a large headwind in the fourth quarter before things get better in fiscal 2026.
The analyst said gross margins are seeing big pressure in the near-term and could decline further in the fourth quarter.
"This one-time darling of investors has clearly been off its game in recent years, but we believe that the worst may nearly be over."
Nikic said Nike could be a "compelling story stock" in 2025 if the stock finds a bottom.
Telsey on NKE: Third quarter results were better than expected but were offset by weak guidance and management commentary, Fernandez said in a new investor note.
"We believe Nike is making the right moves by cleaning up inventory, rebalancing the product portfolio by increasing newness and reducing the focus on classic franchises, and strengthening relationships with wholesale partners, but the brand is still several quarters away from reaching stabilization," Fernandez said.
The analyst said management commentary suggests more profit headwinds and struggles ahead.
Nike sales in Greater China were down 15% year-over-year in constant currency in the quarter. The analyst said China's macroeconomic environment remains challenging and Nike is seeing more competition.
Oppenheimer on NKE: A recovery for the apparel company is "taking shape," Nagel said in a new investor note.
The analyst said the third-quarter results were better than expected.
"While results at NKE continue to track weak, we believe that underlying trends at the company are starting to improve and set up for a potentially meaningful rebound, in coming quarters," Nagel said.
NKE Price Action: Nike stock is down 5.3% to $68.04 on Friday, hitting new 52-week lows of $65.17 earlier in the day's trading session. Nike stock is down 9.4% year-to-date in 2025 and down 34% over the last year.
