. >> elliot williams is. >> i'm certain commonwealth will win or he hopes the kamala harris will win that that is a beautiful, optimal mystik message that he's putting out there, but it doesn't appear to track where polls are right now, which shows a horse race, particularly in those seven swing states. so it's hard to know, but, but it's a powerful message that he's laid out. yeah. >> i mean, i think we've said all along this is going to be a very, very close race. i think it is closer than people even imagined it would be, which is why i think the stuff like john kelly coming out and doing the interview and talking to the new york times about what he has seen with trump. and the military piece. i think will be more important in a lot of ways than then james carville, happy birthday. >> james carville also numbered number one and number to watch there. watch kidneys actions at their word the actions of khan layers campaign tells me that they're at least, at least lose momentum, maybe not losing. >> that's more important than i believe what the words of the campaign's reactions in th

elliot hill. >> let's get more of the street's take. joining us is williamssam poser, who has a buy rating on nike, $95 price target. i always give you credit because you identified the problem with management and with some of the culture and leadership around innovation, i think earlier, and were willing to go there when other analysts weren't. how do you feeling after the quarter? >> as you said, i don't think anybody should have been surprised, and i also think that if you consider, you know, what nike was two weeks ago, under the outgoing leadership, anything they would have said yesterday and the outlook was going to go down. it was going to go down, anyway. so, again, no surprise. but what has changed is new leadership, and a big increase in morale. and as an ex-nike person said to me, who still likes nike a lot, said it used to be, when you would go to work at nike, it was a mission, you were on a mission, and it became a job. well, now it appears to be back to a mission again, and i think a lot of people keep looking at what's going to happen in china
