He explained that Nike has been the worst performer of the Dow Jones stocks, and he thinks that in the long term, it is going to improve its performance. Knuckman wants to use a stock replacement strategy to bet on a turnaround in the stock. He wants to buy the June 2017, 45-strike call for $8.

The trade breaks even at $53 or approximately 2.5 percent higher from its current price level. His maximal loss in the trade is the premium of $8, which is around 15.5 percent of the underlying price. Knuckman added that Nike hasn't been down at $45 since 2014.
