"Looking at Nike Nora today. So Nike shares ticker NK. So those shares extending declines. They're down more than 3% now. So they're in the headlines for a number of reasons today. It is because uh they are apparently ending an initiative that gave employees an extra week off each year to promote mental health and wellness. So it's their annual wellness week which started in 2021 has been held each year since for in August. But now no more no more weeks off for wellness which I have to say is is quite generous. Right. A whole week off for wellness sounds amazing. But apart from that, I mean, Nike has had a mixed week as well, right? So, it got upgraded at Wells Fargo to overweight from equal weight. But then 13F filings also show that some uh companies cutting their positions on the stock."

Nike's outlook is mixed as shares decline over 3% while the company scrambles with policy shifts, including ending its annual wellness week. Despite an upgrade to overweight from Wells Fargo, institutional position cuts highlight a divided sentiment among investors.
