CONSUMER CYCLICALS: China stimulus easing comments help luxury sentiment
Marginal support for luxury this morning on supportive comments from China on monetary and fiscal policy settings for next year. Reminder the read we have from most on golden week (1-7th Oct) is normal to weaker than expected - those numbers will begin rolling through in mid-Jan. Any weakness there will find some offset from reported sequential improvement in NA/Europe conditions - notably Kering did not report that improvement and numbers for both continued to deteriorate into Q3.
- SXXP +0.3% vs. High-beta: Kering +4.4%, Burberry +3%
- Other; LVMH +3.5%, Richemont +2.5%, L'Oreal +2%
