Talk of Nike Inc. sales taking a hit from the company’s decision to put ex–NFL player Colin Kaepernick at the center of its latest “Just Do It” campaign is looking overblown, based on data from a Silicon Valley digital commerce research company.

After an initial dip immediately after the news broke, Nike’s NKE, -0.12% online sales actually grew 31% from the Sunday of Labor Day weekend through Tuesday, as compared with a 17% gain recorded for the same period of 2017, according to San Francisco–based Edison Trends.

Sure, a number of liberals will deliberately go out and buy Nike merchandise to spite conservatives.  But we'll see what the final outcome will be. 
Why antagonize customers with politically charged ads?

Viral story claiming Bartlesville man caught his house on fire protesting Nike is a hoax, police say

Despite what social media would have you believe, a Bartlesville man did not accidentally burn his house down trying to protest a recent Nike ad featuring Colin Kaepernick.

A story about the alleged house fire began trending on Facebook and Twitter on Thursday, but Bartlesville Police Capt. Jay Hastings assures the far-fetched tale is a hoax.

"I know nothing of any such crime," Hastings said.

But Stock closed Down 0,12% the same day.  Just BLM and hard core Lefties spending a little reactionary money.   The Right would do the same if instead Nike for a year made their logo Blue in honor of fallen LEO, like that would ever happen.

Perhaps, but looking at how a negative tweet from Trump sells books like fire and fury, and whatever omarosa's book was, and it looks like leftist companies can successfully utilize their opposition to Trump to promote their brands to the "resistance."
