The Luxury Thread

Beyond Europe

The luxury names outside Europe.

Prices to 23 Oct 2026. Updated 25 Oct 2026.

American brands and the Chinese and Asian names now competing for the same spender. Each gets a simple tag from its latest reported sales and how its shares have done against the local market. The European Luxury Health Check is unchanged and does not use these names.

How the tag works: growth above 3% scores +1, below 0% scores −1; shares more than 5 points ahead of the local index year to date score +1, more than 5 points behind score −1. US names are measured against the S&P 500, Hong Kong names against the Hang Seng and Shiseido against the Nikkei 225. Periods differ because reporting calendars differ: some report quarterly, some half yearly, and Chow Tai Fook and Anta give retail sales rather than revenue. Anta publishes growth bands only, so its sales signal is not scored.
