Show Notes
On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Nike (NKE) shares edged lower after Piper Sandler downgraded the company to neutral from overweight on concerns that athleisure is becoming too saturated across the industry. Analyst Anna Andreeva says the sportswear giant is also a quarter away from lapping big gains in its Running business and worry that athleisure might be at “peakish levels.”
- Coreweave (CRWV) shares rise after news Anthropic agreed to rent data center capacity to handle increasing demand for its artificial intelligence services. The multiyear deal will help Anthropic build and deploy its Claude AI models, with capacity including a variety of Nvidia Corp. chip architectures at data centers in the US.
- Shake Shack (SHAK) shares rise. Mizuho Securities raised the recommendation on Shake Shack Inc. Class A to outperform from neutral, saying its valuation looks attractive with catalysts ahead. “Our checks point to Q1 SSS growth upside, with drivers in place for comp momentum and restaurant-level margins ahead of current expectations as 2026 progresses,” analyst Nick Setyan wrote in a note.
