Can a Prancing Horse Outrun an Electric Future?In the ever-evolving landscape of luxury automobiles, Ferrari stands as a beacon of innovation and exclusivity. The recent upgrade from J.P. Morgan, elevating Ferrari's status from "Neutral" to "Overweight," underscores the company's resilience and strategic prowess in navigating complex market dynamics. This vote of confidence, coupled with a substantial increase in the price target to $525, reflects Ferrari's unique position in the luxury sector and its ability to maintain growth even in the face of global economic challenges.
At the heart of Ferrari's success lies a paradoxical strategy that defies conventional wisdom: deliberately producing fewer cars than the market demands. This approach, rooted in the vision of founder Enzo Ferrari, has cultivated an environment of perpetual desire and scarcity. With a staggering backlog of 24 to 30 months, Ferrari has not only engineered exceptional vehicles but has also orchestrated an "underappreciated cultural evolution" within the company. This disciplined approach to growth, combined with the power to command premium prices, provides unparalleled visibility into future earnings and sets Ferrari apart from its luxury peers.
As the automotive industry races towards electrification, Ferrari is poised to redefine the boundaries of performance and sustainability. The company's foray into the electric vehicle market, promising an "incredible driving experience" that remains true to the Ferrari ethos, demonstrates its commitment to innovation while preserving its core values. However, this journey is not without obstacles. Ferrari must navigate challenges such as an ongoing investigation into its chairman and the conclusion of a key partnership with Santander. Yet, with strong financial performance, positive investor sentiment, and a clear strategic vision, Ferrari appears well-equipped to maintain its pole position in the luxury automotive market, promising a future as thrilling and exclusive as its storied past.

LULU: Luxury Powerhouse & Multi-Decade TrendsetterKey Rationale:
Fundamentals remain intact making this a very attractive time to be contrarian, ignore the pessimism and buy the dip. Always nice to buy what you know and can see around you.
Comments:
Credited with the development of athleisure. Hasn't yet seized Pickleball market opportunity.
Incessant selling due is unwarranted with one executive departing.
One of the best available Ex-U.S. stocks.
Potential tailwind off the back of Ozempic & GLP-1 craze.
Still a profitability powerhouse with pricing power because of its iconic brand.
Same-store sales are growing exponentially, and an expansionary opportunity abroad.
Narrow Moat, Exemplary Capital Allocation.
Luxury market is different from discount competitors, and luxury brands are seldom cheap.
3-Star Valuation on Morningstar, hasn't been this cheap since 2017.

#CFR Richemont Roars Back: Ready to 'Rumble' Up the Charts!Richemont (JSE:CFR) Breaking the significant down trending channel which has held price lower since July in a very controlled 'Fashion' (excuse the pun). The level we bounced from is the 50% fib retracement from the May 22 lows and May 23 highs. RSI and MACD has been building divergence for weeks where the indicators made higher lows which was not confirmed by price..
Putting this all together, I think we have a good trading opportunity to get long CFR here with a stop loss below recent lows at R2158, with targets at approx. R2500 R2600 and R2700 (200day ma).

Moncler (MONC.mi) bearish scenario:The technical figure Pennant can be found in the Italian company Moncler (MONC.mi) at daily chart. Moncler is an Italian luxury fashion brand with French origin mostly known for its skiwear. The Pennant has broken through the support line on 02/04/2022, if the price holds below this level you can have a possible bearish price movement with a forecast for the next 6 days towards 46.860 EUR. Your stop loss order according to experts should be placed at 52.86 EUR if you decide to enter this position.
Moncler reported revenues that surpassed the 2-billion-euro mark, rising 44 percent compared with 1.4 billion euros in 2020, eight years after its initial public offering and through a global pandemic. Net profit climbed 37 percent to 411.4 million euros, compared with 300.4 million euros in 2020. Compared with 2019, it grew 14.7 percent from 358.7 million euros. The group also touted a free cash flow of 550.3 million euros, above pre-COVID-19 levels and compared to 195.5 million euros in 2020.

CAC 40 best performing indiceI think the top 5 of US stocks that went up the most is made of Moderna (MRNA) and 4 energy companies including 3 Oil companies. The typical big tech stocks did not do that well. Google is up 70% in a straight line. AMZN & AAPL that broke new highs (notably in price and market cap) have not gone up compared to the rest.
The best indice is France CAC 40 which was undervalued (compared to the rest) and sleeping. As far as I know France has been in the top 6 exporters since forever and dropped out of that in 2020 only time will tell if they go back up. France followed the US example "Wow looks pretty cool to be in debt to the neck. We hate kids let's make them work hard in 50 years to pay for our lazy lifestyle today" as well as "Who cares what happens after I did my 2 (president, ministers) or 20 (congress) terms? This will get me lots of votes from ignorant zombies.". Now all I see France paying China with is heavy/advanced armament (planes...) and luxury which the chinese really love.
I don't know if these useless expensive products companies are expensive (do I look like a stock investor?) but the price keeps going up. CAC 40 is in a bull market and finally beat 2000 high. Up we go. Going up even more than the US pyramid scheme now. Maybe I'll just buy the indice on the next pullback.
Chubby ugly women want to feel pretty what can I say? Too blunt? Sorry. Too hard not to push chips and soda down a funnel placed in your month I guess. Capitalism/consumerism ❤️
I have no idea what I'm doing but unlike 2018-2019 where I got destroyed I think I now have a fair shot at making money with stocks. RNA companies in the long term look too good, with all the zombies mindlessly vaccinated I lose my words. Indeed how can so many be vaccinated and no one be hyped, or even give a rat's ass, about RNA? Like 1 billion people got injected at least once, often several times, and no one speaks about the tech, no one cares 🤦. Almost seems like cheating... Did somebody use cheat codes to make money? Well anyway there will be a pullback (significantly, multi year bear market) at some point, and years after this the zombie herd will suddenly understand what RNA is and the possibilities (because someone explained it to them - slowly - on television) and they will get VERY EXCITED ("we will erradicate all illness and live forever"). Trolls (Pomp) will shout "Pfizer can go to 1000/10,000" and the herd will FOMO.
Since I have no idea what I am doing I will OTP kinda. Going to stick to the S&P 500 indice + the french 4 stocks I mentionned. Read about those, study those... Over time surely I'll add a bit more. So I won't be so reliant on Forex doing something.
Tech stocks are not the future anymore. Now the future is (no surprise) energy production (it's always the future) and biotech. Energy production including EV batteries. And luxury will always sell (as long as people are full of cash, not broke).
L'Oreal is in a complete bubble so I'm not saying hold no matter what in your retirement account.
It's going completely vertical. It's basically Bitcoin. And the CAC 40 is only just starting a bull trend.
Ali-Foreman of the 21st century: Winnie the pooh vs the richestChinese regulatory crackdown is an exceptionally interesting phenomenon. Recently it got even more interesting as Xi Jinping, probably expecting the necessity of Evergrande bailout, suggested smoothing excessive incomes. Surprising? No. Some growth of populism has been seen in General Secretary’s actions for at least a year.
My prediction for upcoming months is simple: every time something good “happens” to Evergrande, the Communist Party will throw a punch at the wealthiest to show how much they regard the Chinese underpaid and overworked society. What does it mean for the European luxuries leader? In 2020, 34% of its revenues came from Asia excluding Japan (unsurprisingly, the majority of this 34% can be attributed to China). Adding the disappointing Chinese economic data to our equation, a decrease or LVMH’s revenues from Asia seems to be inevitable. Given that luxury goods are trading at a huge premium (that I don’t think I can justify) over the MSCI Europe, a short position on the industry leader looks very appealing.
Just before posting this idea, I checked the analysts’ consensus on LVMH. Apparently, the vast majority of them are optimistic. Well, I am not.
$CPRI: Continues to stun the marketWith another massive earnings beat, the market continues to find value in this name that was getting beaten up long before COVID. Should be interesting to see if CPRI can continue to impress into holiday season and beyond.

Revenue increased 178%, with better than anticipated results across all three luxury houses
Adjusted gross margin expanded 90 basis points versus prior year
Adjusted operating margin of 20.8%
Adjusted earnings per share of $1.42
Raised full year adjusted earnings per share outlook to $4.50
BGI Looking To Shine In Reopening TradeBIG Gap up on July 1 after news that BGI reopened in Canada. But now it's at some interesting levels. The 618 fib has acted as support/resistance for a while. Since BGI broke above that, we need to see if it can hold. Next minor resistance seems to be around the .5 Fib then more major at the 382 fib. This 382 level is an area that BGI seems to have had a tough time breaking through. It has tested it but failed more times that succeeded to break through it and hold.
"Clearly, retail is broad, but there are a few names that come to mind. First, luxury brands have taken a focus as consumers have come out of hibernation with fresh capital. Jewelry companies like Birks Group (NYSE: BGI) have gained attention in the market. Birks operates jewelry stores across Canada. As of June 30, 2021, the company said it operates twenty-nine retail stores. It also has its fine jewelry collections available through other companies in the UK and US, including Mayors Jewelers and SAKS Fifth Avenue locations. This week Birks announced that it opened all of its Canadian stores, helping give it a boost in the market."

Vechain (VET) Most Undervalued Cryptocurrency $1 Potential.Everything from luxury goods, counterfeit prevention, wine, vehicles, NFTs, Covid19, healthcare, distribution, art, food, ect... The first 5-star-rated blockchain service provider in the world Vechain is the swiss army knife of blockchains. Vechain (VET) I believe is perhaps one of the most undervalued cryptocurrency in the space this year. Having a vast network of partnerships it is the most publicly and widely used blockchain network used by governments, small businesses, and enterprises worldwide solving a real global problems and more. In a nutshell Vechain is the blockchain for the supply chain and logistics industry.
As of right now Vechain has a long way to go before it even hits a new Bitcoin price discovery phase. We've been trading below the .236 Fibocannci level since September 2020 for less than 100 satoshis!!!! In a sense this can indicate that Vechain still has a massive amount of growth especially if Bitcoin drops in dominance. In the short term our price target is 105 Satoshi.
I'm not normally one to give big price predictions but based on fundamentals and tokenomics I believe Vechain has $1 potential this bull cycle. Especially if we consider that this may be a Bitcoin " Super Cycle" due to our current political and economic environment from the effects of COVID-19 on our global monetary system. There's a current circulation supply of 64,315,576,989 VET and Max Supply 86,712,634,466 so we're getting closer to no more Vechain coming into circulation.
As of right now dollar value of Vechain rounded out is roughly $0.05 cents with a current market cap of $3,000,000,000. Multiplied by a 20x and this gives us a $1.00 Vechain with a 60 Billion dollar market cap which in my opinion is not too far fetched considering a mutli-trillion dollar cryptocurrency market cap, what Vechain is, and the industry they're revolutionizing.
Remember Vechain is a first mover and has first mover advantage in its space. You know me I always keep a fat bag for the long term been accumulating since it was less than a penny. Keep Vechain on you radar this project has extremely strong fundamentals. Much peace, love, health, and wealth!
Ralph Laure Bullish Race HorseLooking long with potential target of $180 then potentially $230. Since launch Ralph has been in a bullish trend. A worldwide well recognised brand that performs well through all seasons and market conditions. However, COVID being a complete different disaster has had an effect on consumer trends and even eliminates the option for consumers to visit stores. Clothing is one of the least wanted items at current Covid conditions. Ideally I will like price to drop to $30-$35. However, current price entry levels is also attractive, if price continues to decline then I will look to purchase higher quantities at cheaper share price . I will also look to trade Ralph for the shorter term gains.
