I don't live and breathe by any of these weekly sports apparel and footwear numbers, but I need to point out a consistent trend for UA. Since its bottom during the week of March 9th, the delta in UA's compression apparel biz has been getting steadily better. While there are much more notable factors that I think matter here (footwear, Int'l, etc..) the Street is so hyper-focused on UA's supposed inability to grow anymore in this perceived 'core' business. The datapoints are going against the bears.
