KeringPPRUYPAST TOP PICKJan 07, 2026Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of May 28, 2026. Market Open.
The luxury market has been weak after the post-Covid boom. Chinese consumers are a major factor. Plus, their Gucci brand wasn't resonating with consumers. Their designer tried to make the brand more into leather goods and classic fashions, but that isn't what Gucci is about. They have a new designer, so he sees upside. Long-term, he likes luxury goods for being stable and an oligopoly. It trades at 17x PE forward where mid-20s is the norm, so there's room here.
(Analysts’ price target is $22.60)
Still in turnaround mode, which is starting to take hold. New CEO last year. Sold in October, as the variable dividend no longer met his firm's threshold. Luxury market is still a good one.
