The core Dick's business is healthy, but its Foot Locker acquisition is bleeding money and guidance got cut — too much uncertainty to call it a clean bargain yet.

Why DKS dropped

Shares crashed after Q2 earnings because the Foot Locker chain Dick's bought is losing money (comparable sales falling, projected operating loss of $40-80M) forcing a real cut to full-year profit guidance, even though Dick's own stores grew sales nearly 5%.
