please note that the average return is mis-stated because of a 200% stock dividend on RBSPF... really brings down the returns

Q. Who benefits from the most amazi...
07.06.08 | 21:35 PM Asked by R. Tamina Ernhart

A. Nike will benefit from this match just
as much as they benefit from any other
sporting event. Honestly, the answer is
probably nobody except the network that
was holding the event. Nike is a great
global growth story and the company is
hanging in there because of its global
exposure. Great tennis match sure, great
stock catalyst? Probably not!
