Richemont: shares drop after analyst downgrade

(CercleFinance.com) - Richemont shares dropped almost 5% on Wednesday after an analyst downgraded the Swiss luxury group's share and cut his target price.


UBS cited "slowing momentum" for Cartier, saying the that the jewellery brand's weakness is "not priced in."

The broker has therefore downgraded Richemont shares from "neutral" to "sell" and has also cut its target price from 71 Swiss francs to 68 Swiss francs, meaning 14% downside potential.

The Zurich-listed stock is currently down 4.9% at 75.1 Swiss francs.
