but nike is not alone when it comes to margin compressions.ain issues are still very much a factor. nike has had their margins pressure down to 12% from 15% this quarter, that is crucial when talking about how the stock prog. i want to show a terminal chart, which is the chart of the day, showing you nike stock price on a logarithmic scale to show you the acceleration of the move. mostly, it seems it is far more sensitive to revenue surprises than margins in particular telling you just how important the consumer is to how much nike is making and how the share price is reflecting the more important issue. the supply chain issue are the underlying strain of consumers around the world, specifically here in the u.s. amanda: how is that affecting nike? kriti: you are seeing the peers as competition. under armour, lululemon gaining. this is not just a story here in the u.s., but over in europe where european peers are rallying the idea that if sales are growing in the states in europe, that is something other parts of the industry will benefit from.

we saw some companies take this approach and now we are seeing major corporations like nike with a bit of a traditional distribution channel are now doing well, selling directly off their own website. does it behoove these companies to move further into that space where they just cut out the reseller altogether? is there some beneficial relationship from the reseller that these companies can get? >> through this career, these conversations have come and gone. as we have new products and ways to engage with customers, it has become more easy for companies to go direct to consumer. just challenges in the model, manufacturers often don't know how to price for a customer. they are typically focused on the b to b channel. they are used to sending out pallets of product to retail locations, not individually to customers. it does take a rethinking of the supply chain for a manufacturer to go direct to consumer. what we have seen is social media platforms like facebook and instagram creating that channel that has allowed many of these companies to go direct to customers and we are certainly se
