The Caitlin Clark Effect and the uncomfortable truth behind it - The Athletic
Quick Glance: The Caitlin Clark Impact and the Uncomfortable Truth Behind It
- Caitlin Clark deserves every endorsement deal she's offered. Her influence as an influencer is based on several key factors.
- Clark’s attractiveness to local companies and national corporations is heightened by the fact that she is a White woman who has dominated a sport that’s viewed as predominately Black; a straight woman who is joining a league with a sizable LGBTQ+ player population; and a person who comes from America’s heartland, where residents often feel their beliefs and values are ignored or disrespected by the geographical edges of the country.
- There was a significant disparity in the competition for Caitlin Clark in the end. Nike offered 8 years / $28 million, Adidas 4 years / $6 million, Under Armour 4 years / $16 million, and Puma withdrew after hearing about $3 million.
- It is a fact that brand ambassadorship at her level is not simply a commentary on someone’s athletic ability. It’s also a reflection of society’s impact on who gets the biggest bags.

RTX beats estimates on military demand, aviation strength: Aerospace and defense major RTX on Tuesday beat first-quarter earnings estimates ...
reuters.com/business/aerospace-defense/rtx-profit-jumps-20-aviation-strength-military-demand-2024-04-23/
Quick Glance: RTX Exceeds Expectations Due to Strong Demand and Profits
- RTX, a key player in the aerospace and defense industry, outperformed earnings expectations in the first quarter. This was facilitated by high demand for missile defense systems and strength in the commercial aftermarket business.
- Pratt and Whitney, a subsidiary of RTX, saw a 23% increase in sales due to an ongoing inspection to check potentially flawed components in their geared turbofan engines. Despite new engine deliveries, Pratt's operating profit declined as new engines are often discounted to generate profits through aftermarket sales over the engine's lifecycle.
- Operating profit of RTX's defense sector, Raytheon, surged by 74%. This growth was supported by the popular Patriot defense system and profits from divesting the cybersecurity, intelligence, and services business. In the quarter, Raytheon secured a $1.2 billion order for German Patriot air and missile defense systems.
- The rising international demand for U.S. weaponry is a consequence of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, Chinese aggressions, and conflicts in the Middle East. Operating profits in Raytheon's defense sector increased by 74%, backed by the sought-after Patriot defense system and gains from selling the cybersecurity, intelligence, and services business.
