The news about Nike’s fourth-quarter earnings announcement focused on what would be a large loss at any other time, but the real story is a full and dramatic reposition of a top global brand toward “digital 3.0.” And digital banking has become the new normal, as social distancing measures and stay-at-home orders reduced the ability of financial institutions (FIs) to offer services in branches. All this, Today in Data.
