Telegraph:

After suffering its worst day in over a year, luxury fashion house Burberry topped the FTSE 100, up 59p to £14.62 after Barclays and Berenberg raised their price target, following the group’s return to growth in the the last quarter.

Burberry is 31p better at £14.34 after positive analyst comment after its falls after Tuesday’s update. Barclays raised its target price from £13.50 to £14.50, saying:

Expectations were running high coming into the figures following LVMH results last week - so in line figures have been met with some disappointment with the stock down high single-digits. We have raised both the EPS and price target by 7% based on 19 times 2017 calendar PE.

UBS was also positive, issuing a buy note:

Although expectations on Burberry had been high into the quarter, we believe that the share price weakness (-7%) was an overreaction given in line figures and no change to consensus pretax profit excluding foreign exchange. Our buy rating on Burberry is based on our view that the share price does not reflect the true value of the retail productivity improvements and cost savings plan laid out at the strategy update on 18th May.

We believe that the return to positive like for like of +2% in the second quarter should give confidence in this longer term potential. Additionally we were positively surprised that cost control measures will now come in above expectations for both the full year and the first half so offsetting the downgrade in wholesale guidance.

Sharecentre:

We continue to recommend Burberry as a ‘hold’ for investors willing to accept a medium level of risk as the luxury industry is still feeling the effects of the generally slower sales rate from China after the clampdown on luxury gift giving and global economic growth remains tentative.

Market report:

The varying fortunes of British retailers were responsible for the many of the biggest risers and fallers. Burberry suffered the most, losing 7.2pc to close at £14.03 after its quarterly figures left investors with concerns about overseas demand.

The luxury brand’s shares hit their highest point in over a year last week, helped by the decline in sterling that has made its wares more attractive to foreign buyers, yet its outlook for the rest of the year was more gloomy than expected.

Analysts at Haitong said that Burberry was more downbeat than its peers about sales from Chinese customers buying internationally, and they remain cautious until after the new chief executive Marco Gobbetti joins the group next summer.

This fella seems to be flavour of the month. My best one for ages :-)

edit:

China's inflation stepped up in September, with prices rising more than expected for both consumers and producers in a surprising signal of economic strength.

Consumer prices rose 1.9 percent on-year in September, while producer prices surprised by rising 0.1 percent on-year, the first increase since 2012.

Burberry Group shares were also buoyed by the Chinese data, rising 2.1%. The luxury-goods maker takes in more than 14% of its revenue from mainland China, according to FactSet.
