View Full Version : Under armour receiving it's just desserts.

Basically the fiasco over a few thousand sjw whining gets them to drop a sponsored hunter over her husband hunting a bear. Stock and sales dwindling.

IF those fools cherry picking where their "revenue" is getting generated, they deserve to get hammered.
Let 'er rip.
I have some UA stuff, and I am not going to burn it, but we immediately stopped buying it when they changed course.
I never purchased a single one of their products and now never will. FFS it's "under" armor why the hell can I see it?!
Haha! This is how its supposed to work. The free market sorted it out. I do find it funny that they sided with the group least likely to use their product.
Another company that fundamentally failed to understand their customers and deserves it.
Unfortunately, the employees, vendors, and shareholders don't deserve it.

They made some really good outer wear, which is what we have. Cabela's Storm is what I will replace it with.
Yes, Skip, it is again the peasants that get screwed by the liberals
This thread makes me happy. Screw them.
Hopefully a ton of liberal investors bought large amounts of this stock immediately after the SJWs "won".
I never liked their gear enough to have it melted to me.

I think their stuff is over priced to begin with (and sized too small), but I'm glad to see them get their nose bloodied for picking the wrong side of the culture war.
I have no sympathy for them. I have a few of their shirts. Would have eventually bought more. Until they change their stance on hunting they get nothing from me.

My wife gave me a very nice UA hoodie (camo) and I love it. I immediately thought, "This will be great for hunting!". Too bad...this will be the only one I own.

Every outdoors and sporting goods store that carries UA product should stop.

I think the company failed hard but what everyone is missing is that the stock is tanking because they haven't maintained the expansion rate of doubling sales every 3 years. They still expanded sales 12%, they just missed the analyst projections. The question in my mind is what that did to profits -- if they still made profits then this is a buying opportunity on their stock.

Yes! I'm glad I'm not the only one that had trouble with their fitment. The sleeves just arent long enough.

I have a couple of their cold gear shirts and I think they are pretty nice for what they are but, I have never purchased any of their other products do to it all being made in China nor will I ever buy anything else at this point. This caving in to the cultural Marxism seals the deal for me.

They have decent stuff if it fits you, although they charge a premium for the name just like many others. I've done fine without any of their stuff and will continue to be fine.

Stock purchased.
Another possible good SHORT is Dicks Sporting goods (DKS). DICK and UA are closest complimentary.
Oh yeah, I remember DICK use to cherry pick their revenue too.
Having a bad Q retails numbers, I don't think ANY retailers have luxury (rich grease in their stomach) to cherry pick their revenue.

Let them eat cake!
I'm not sure what happened, but now I'm hungry for cake.
Under armour receiving it's just deserts.
Huh? What did the high arid region ever do to them? [Coffee]
Never been a fan of UA. Just didn't fit that well and the price was at a premium. Didn't understand why they caved to people that were not their customers either.
To be fair, I used to be a big fan of Patagonia. I don't mind paying a premium for top quality clothes made in the USA. Then they outsourced to South America. Yes, they are helping people down there but still charging the premium here. I doubt the "new" workers are seeing those revenues.

I'd love to hear the people talk while sewing up all those super warm coats. On the upside probably a low employee theft rate.

It's "IT'S"...
Not "ITS".
"It's" is ONLY used for "it is." The possessive is still "its" (no apostrophe).

Two Ts? But I thought the point was we didn't even want to buy one T from UA!

I think that "Trix" needs a "TM" somewhere around adjacent.

No...but I wish I'd thought of that. I was trying to be a smartass and it backfired. Its happens.

Seem to be marketing hard on FB now for customers to come back.

I thought someone important had something to say. I'm still waiting for ISIS to hit one of these hollywood award shows, then I'll have something to cheer about.

Why would they attack their spokespeople?
Let's lose our conservative/hunting customers by bowing to the whiny libs....
Let's lose any support we gained by bowing down to the whiners by saying something positive about President Trump....
HAHA Nice business model chumps. May you die a quick financial death.

They realized they screwed up and have no idea how to correct it. Grasping at straws.
Hey they've now endorsed trump and the left is screaming at them...
Employees at Under Armor are realizing how tight the collars on their shirts feel for the first time...

Most of the articles I've read have said store closings like Sports Authority have been the cause of the slump for UA.
Wool > plastic anyway.
yes.

Now would be a hell of a time to buy U.A. stock. I wish I had the free money. I don't care about who slimed what slimeball with what kind of slime. The fact is they've taken a huge stock hit over the last year and it will rebound. How much, who knows. Right now, $21, high within the last 12 months is 400% higher.
They also took a big hit with Sports Authority closing.

If I traded individual stocks, I'd be game to buy some now.

What makes you think it won't go to $5, if it lost 75% in the last year what says it won't lose 75% this year? Don't try to buy bottoms. Let it bottom and catch it as it rises.

You can always tax loss harvest for increased gains when it goes back up.

Too much opportunity loss waiting for it to go back up.
Money better used elsewhere.
That's also why I don't worry about buying individual stocks. Much less hassle and stress.
