Keep in mind that stock options added a whopping 11% overall disposable personal income, although almost all to the Bully class, and a small part of it to boot

"Susquehanna Financial analyst John Shanley said an aggressive share repurchase program increased earnings per share by about 3 cents."

The NKE insiders/bully class were busy unloading options/shares to the company, fudging earnings in the process.

"Forward orders for footwear and apparel scheduled for delivery from December through April 2007 rose 7 percent, Nike said, while inventory rose 15 percent"

I have been running my own businesses (except for the 7 year stint at Home Depot) for my entire adult life, and I can tell you from experience that it doesn’t bode well for the company when inventories are rising twice as fast as the new orders.
