other investor news http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/retailandconsumer/12102720/Sports-Direct-investor-voices-concern-about-relationship-with-Nike.html "ne of Sports Direct’s largest shareholders has voiced concern about the retailer’s fragile relationship with sporting goods giant Nike. The investor is concerned that Sports Direct’s growth is slowing because it does not stock enough of Nike’s latest ranges, which lure shoppers, and instead is filling stores with its own cheaper brandst. These fears have been exacerbated by the contrasting forturnes of JD Sports which last week upgraded profit forecasts by 10pc just six days after Sports Direct issued a profit warning in the wake of poor Christmas trading. Sports Direct shares are 29pc lower than a year ago. Trevor Green, head of UK equities at Aviva Investors, said “JD Sports is fascinating in relation to Sports Direct. JD is completely switched on, it is right at the cutting edge of athletic fashion.”"
