ABC Business Daily · Nike’s spectacular fall · 9 Sep 2026 podcast

Yes, so when we talk about the Dow Jones Index, we're talking about 30 mega companies.

So Microsoft, Visa, Boeing, these really big ones.

When we talk about the S P 500, that's probably the broad index of the 500 biggest listed companies in America that we follow when we talk about the American economy, or at least the stock market as an indicator of it.

But it is important because there are funds that hug the index.

So instead of uh you buying a little bit of a hundred companies, you have an uh EFT that will buy all of them and you just buy into that fund.

What happens, uh, and this happens in Australia every year, there's a recalibration of the uh ASX 200, which is our uh index of the flagship 200 biggest listed companies in Australia.

When they recalibrate, the companies that fall out of it and the companies

That go in.

It's a bit like relegation in the uh football leagues in the UK.

Excuse me.

This is the business version.

So when Nike drops out of the top hundred, the funds that are buying the top hundred companies get out of Nike and they buy into whoever is replacing them.

So we're going to see that happen as well.

And as I said, this puts more money into companies that are in it and takes more money out of it.

There's less desire and less

this appetite for the stock, uh, which has already uh yeah, precipitously fallen in the last five years.

Now, I always disclose if I own any shares.

Now, I normally only have a small amount of shares.

I buy them so that I can uh ask questions at the AGMs.

So uh I generally have small amounts of uh what I call controversial or poorly run companies in Australia so that I can ask some questions.
