In everything from Louis Vuitton, there are elements that cannot be fully explained. ‘ ‘What secret little gestures do our craftsmen discretely pass on?

The trunk maker owned by Paris-based LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SA (MC) lifted prices on bags such as the Speedy and NeverFull by about 10 percent in the euro region, Antoine Belge , an HSBC analyst, said today in a note to clients. Vuitton raised prices by at least 10 percent in the U.K. and U.S., and by 5 percent to 10 percent in Asian markets including China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore, the analyst wrote. The euros strength against some currencies may lead LVMH to charge more, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Bernard Arnault said Jan. 31. Vuittons price increase in Japan, the biggest ever by the brand in the country, was taken to offset the impact of the yens slide on sales, the company said Feb. 20.

The decision will probably weigh on the number of items sold, though its the right thing for brand equity longer term. Vuittons 2013 sales may rise 6 percent, excluding currency moves, while volume may decline 2 percent to 3 percent, Belge wrote.

The jury has also announced that it will then hold a hearing into whether these actions have damaged the reputation of the Americas Cup, which is prohibited under the protocol which governs this years 34th defence. Penalties could be against individuals or teams and run from bans from all competitions to forfeiting wins in the best of 17 cup match which begins on 7 September. From the most hi-tech of Americas Cup yachts and a budget in nine figures, the recently knighted Ben Ainslie will turn his attention in October to a 33-foot boat designed in 1936 and sold new, with all equipment including a cradle, for $2,670 when he takes part in the Bermuda Gold Cup as part of the Alpari World Match Racing Tour. The five-time Olympic medallist, four golds and a silver, will be at the helm of an International One Design in which he has won the event twice in the past, in 2009 and 2010. His current boss, Sir Russell Coutts is a four-time winner in Hamilton, but the main rivalry will be between Ainslie and another Briton, the defending world champion Ian Williams and his Team GAC Pindar. Ainslie has modified his entry to the name of Ben Ainslie Racing Team or BART, in memory of his fellow Olympian, Andrew Bart Simpson, who died in an Americas Cup training accident with Swedens Artemis Racing on San Francisco Bay in May.

Race 6 of the Louis Vuitton Cup 2013 Finals gets underway at 4 p.m. ET (1 p.m. PT) live in high definition (with closed captioning). Sailing aficionados in the United States can catch all the action on ESPN3 ‘s live stream ( DVR replay available) and international coverage is available on America’s Cup YouTube channel .

China loves Louis Vuitton, and so will investors

And they love the glitz and glam: donning Louis Vuitton handbags and Richemont watches, sipping Dom Perignon champagne, and cruising around in Audis. “Chinese consumers have buoyed and kept the luxury markets around the world solvent,” said Shaun Rein, Shanghai-based managing director of the China Market Research Group. In addition to clamoring for designer goods at stores in Shanghai, Beijing and Hong Kong, Chinese tourists have dominated sales at flagship locations on New York’s Fifth Avenue and throughout Europe, where the goods are about 30% cheaper than they are on mainland China. A Louis Vuitton boutique in London was recently forced to limit shoppers to three purchases to make sure they would have enough left, said Kirk Cheyfitz, CEO of global marketing agency Story Worldwide, at the Bloomberg China Investment Strategies conference earlier this month. Playing the trend CLSA forecasts that China will become the world’s largest market for luxury goods over the course of the next decade, accounting for 44% of global sales by 2020, from 15% today. Emerging markets are hot: Place your bets Though they do take a hit during economic downturns, Magoon Capital Chief Executive Christian Magoon said the luxury brand companies are still sound investments. “Luxury brand companies are solid investments over the long term because it’s very difficult for new players to enter the space,” Magoon said. “These brands have tradition and status that makes them unique and gives them the ability to price things as high as they want.” Chinese buyers are Louis Vuitton’s biggest customers already, according to CLSA, and sales will likely keep growing alongside an increase in the number of Chinese millionaires. And demand for luxury goods is likely to pick up even more steam if the Chinese government allows the yuan to appreciate, which would make imports like Louis Vuitton bags less expensive.

Louis Vuitton Prices Raised In Asian, European & U.S. Markets

Markets The Huffington Post | By Ellie Krupnick Posted: 03/28/2013 5:15 pm EDT|Updated: 03/29/2013 11:10 am EDT Subscribe Follow: Louis Vuitton , Louis Vuitton Prices , Louis Vuitton Prices Raised , Louis Vuitton Bag Prices , Louis Vuitton Bags , Louis Vuitton More Expensive , Louis Vuitton Japan , Louis Vuitton Most Expensive Bags , Most Expensive Louis Vuitton , Style News Louis Vuitton is already known for being one of the most luxurious fashion companies worldwide. Now the brand has gone and upped their already high prices in an effort to keep pace with sliding currencies. According to Bloomberg, LVMH started in Japan in February, raising prices by about 12 percent to account for the yen’s recent dip to a three-year low . Now Bloomberg reports that LVMH, Louis Vuitton’s parent company, is raising prices across the board : 10 percent in the U.K. and U.S., and 5-10 percent in Asian countries including China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Singapore. Luckily this won’t result in huge sticker shock for the average customer: HSBC analyst Antoine Belge estimated that we’ll probably see small hikes on most products and “unchanged prices for most leather bags.” ( That $52,000 bag probably won’t get any more expensive than it already is.) But this might be a good reason to rethink your spring shopping priorities — maybe we should set our sights on some more affordable accessories.

Louis Vuitton Cup: Predictwind – Winds expected to be over the limit

The victor will go on to meet Oracle Team USA in the America’s Cup in September 2013. After race 6, Emirates Team New Zealand is now just two wins away from victory and a place in the America’s Cup Final. The Kiwis lead 5-1 over their Italian rivals, after coming in 1 minute and 57 seconds ahead in light conditions. The fight’s on for Luna Rossa to extend the series if Emirates Team New Zealand take the next 2 races for the 7-point win, they’ll become the first team to do so twice in the Louis Vuitton Cup’s 30-year history. Races 7 (10.10pm CEST, 1.10pm PDT) and 8(11.10pm CEST, 2.10pm PDT) of the Louis Vuitton Cup Final take place on Saturday, August 24. Watch them LIVE in the above player. The Louis Vuitton Cup saw three teams Emirates Team New Zealand, Artemis Racing and Luna Rossa Challenge take part in a series of round-robin races during July 2013. After winning nine races one after the other, Emirates Team New Zealand proved their status as the top team and chose to exercise their right to advance directly to the final. Italian team Luna Rossa then beat Artemis Racing with a 4-0 clean sweep in the semi-final round. Despite a determined and spirited effort from their Swedish rival, Luna Rossa won decisively.

Louis Vuitton designs its own slowdown

At that time, Arnault publicly admitted for the first time that Louis Vuitton, LVMH’s biggest contributor to profits, was at risk of being too ubiquitous. To counter that perception, Arnault said the brand would move upscale and expand its leather bag offering while pruning its portfolio of LV-embossed canvas bags which make up two third of its business and generate gross margins of around 90 percent. LVMH Finance Director Jean-Jacques Guiony on Friday said Louis Vuitton’s margins rose in the first half, both at the operating and gross level, reversing a decline which analysts estimate started two or three years ago. “People feared that less canvas and more leather could impact Louis Vuitton’s margins,” said Exane BNP Paribas analyst Luca Solca. HSBC calculated that Louis Vuitton’s operating margin fell to 42 percent from 44 percent between 2011 and 2012. RELIEF Sales growth at LVMH’s fashion and leather goods division, of which Louis Vuitton makes up 75 percent of sales, doubled in the second quarter to 6 percent from 3 percent in the previous three months on a like-for-like basis. “It is a relief that there is an improvement in the second quarter and that the margin (at LV) stopped deteriorating,” said Zurich-based Andrea Gerst, who helps run the Julius Baer Luxury Brands fund with 417 million euros ($551.92 million)under management.
