Industry: the luxury sector's insolent records, despite an overall slowdown. LVMH group set the tone at the end of January 2024 with sales up 9% to more than 86 billion euros and a net profit exceeding fifteen billion euros.
Other notable performances: that of the Italian group Zegna, which is close to two billion euros in sales. However, the British Burberry and the French group Kering have had a gloomy year, in a market that is slowing down and becoming increasingly polarized.
