Hopefully around 1600p



"...Analysts at Liberum noted that despite the “strong” trading update, much of the number were flattered by favourable currency effects as the pound has slumped following last June’s Brexit vote.

“There is a small slowdown in Q4 retail life-for-like sales over Q3, of 2 per cent vs 3 per cent which may give the market pause for thought,” said at Tom Gadsby at Liberum.

Designer fashion brand Burberry (BRBY) could benefit from the strong sales seen at market leader Louis Vuitton (LVMH), says Deutsche Bank.

Analyst Warwick Okines retained his ‘hold’ recommendation and increased the target price from £15.25 to £16.50 ahead of a second half sales update. The stock was trading up 0.7%, or 14p, at £17.82 at the time of writing.

‘Burberry reports its second half sales on 19 April. Market leader LVMH’s strong sales performance... increases the upside risk for Burberry’s sales and we raise our fourth quarter store sales expectation to +6%,’ he said.

Burberry will also benefit from a beauty deal with cosmetics company Coty and the fact that designer clothing is ‘back in fashion’. Main risks to the stock ‘on the upside and downside relate to currency movements and sales momentum’, he added.

'Burberry Surges as Billionaire Albert Frere Buys 3% Stake'


“Burberry has always been a good candidate for activist investors,” Zuzanna Pusz, an analyst at Berenberg, said in a note, citing a need for increased cost discipline.

Frere’s Groupe Bruxelles Lambert is buying into Burberry as the European luxury-goods industry shows signs of recovery after a two-year slump. The investment comes at a pivotal time for the U.K. luxury brand, as Chief Executive Officer Christopher Bailey prepares to hand over to Marco Gobbetti, former head of LVMH-owned luxury brand Celine, in July.

Frere is an independent director of LVMH

Telegraph:

Burberry shares spike after billionaire Albert Frere's GBL reports 3pc
Shares in Burberry spiked this afternoon after the holding company of Belgium's richest man, Albert Frere, disclosed a 3pc stake in the luxury fashion house.

GBL Energy Sarl reported a stake of 13.18m.

Frere has a reputation for helping to shake up the companies in which he invests.

After he took a stake in Adidas in 2015, the German company appointed a new chief executive and announced plans to sell its golf business. Shares in Adidas, in which GBL still has a 5pc stake and a representative on the supervisory board, have more than doubled since Frere invested.

Shares leapt 4.4pc to £17.36 in afternoon trade, its highest level since May 2015, and volumes spiked following the announcement.
