luxury sales of Chinese fears hit "Swagger"

  Strong profits and rising stock prices for Tiffany (TIF +0.09%), Michael Kors (KORS 1.13%) and other luxury brands of widespread talk of a new development in high property prices have led the field, but it can be too early, the Dom Perignon corks to pop.

A new study of one of the world's most luxurious experts predicted that the growth of these sales are as much as 50% slower than in the previous year. The main reason: China.

Claudia D'Arpizio, a partner at Bain & Co. and a leader in its luxury and practical way, predicts sales growth of 4% to 5% of sales of luxury around the world this year. Compared to 10% in 2012 and 11% growth in 2011. Total global sales are expected to be 220 billion euros ($ 288 billion) and 222.000.000.000 € this year, from 212.000.000.000 € last year, she said.

While currencies play a role in the slowdown, the study shows that the decline in growth in Asia, particularly in China, and the ongoing weakness in Europe will slow the best performance of the United States and several Latin American countries.

The sales growth in the Asia-Pacific region excluding Japan, from 26% last year to 10 percent at constant exchange rates slow down, the report said.

Has the repression of the Chinese government on corruption a damper on the culture of this country gifts, according to the report, and then soaked extravagant purchases - especially valuable watches, which are often given as gifts. He added that bloggers in China are "trying to display negative buzz from luxury to build."

Europe will remain weak, with growth of 3% to 8% drop, the study said.

The Chinese cut their spending in Europe because of "narrowing price differences" between the high-end products in Europe and Asia, the report added, adding that some consumers "fatigue Tourism" and is therefore not so much to travel Europe.

In contrast, the United States' rediscovered luxury "driven by rising consumer confidence, according to the report.

have to pay LVMH $ 13 million in stock buy Hermes Up?

  Slander, blackmail, insider trading - the charges were pressed in the war between LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton and Hermes are the plot points in a particularly juicy TV drama Wall Street. Now there's a cliffhanger is thrown into the mix: LVMH can not be increased to more than 10 million of its intention, which was dated 31 December reveal a stake of 22.6 per cent pay their competitors. Gulp.

WWD reports that the stock market surveillance of France, the AMF has recommended hefty fine - EUR 12.99 million at current exchange - during a hearing on Friday. Representatives from LVMH fiercely defended against the accusations they began secretly to receive shares of Hermes as far back as 2001 and no later than 21 June 2010, although they did not officially announce the great challenge that she was by 21 October 2010, amassed. In addition to the Vice-President Pierre Gode on the idea that they never expected a hostile takeover, noting that "a company that Hermes is particularly well protected [because of its ownership structure]. We would have no hope of influence .. .. It would be crazy to attempt a takeover of Hermes. "

But that does not change the fact that they surprised everyone (including Hermes) with their ad - or we imagine it will change significantly as unhappy Birkin provider encroaching bigwigs. Dumas, Puech and Guerrand families, representing more than 70 percent of the shares in the company have a combined holding company, to prevent LVMH formed against their walls and in Gode, one of their leaders, "a campaign defamation and slander against LVMH which is extremely detrimental to the image and reputation of LVMH. "

But it's more than the reputation on the line now, because in the coming weeks, the AMF Board determines whether LVMH violated the law by not their businesses, which were made in order to avoid disclosing the usual rules. If they decide that violates a sanction Behemoth, the maximum penalty will be imposed. But as amazing as may seem to € 10 million, LVMH may actually be better off than if the events occurred, for example, last week, when the ceiling was 100 million euros, 129 million euros increased dollar since 2010.

The document states that the Sanctions Committee announce their decision sometime before 31 May ... But, uh, that's not what happens to you while France? Among the infamous three months summer vacation? We would not be surprised if they have their decision tomorrow, so they can fly to their summer holiday in Nice.
