Consumer Edge Data Points to 20+% Rise in One Fast Fashion Brand; Luxury Takes a Hit

Consumer Edge

Fast fashion continues to gain traction in the U.S. market while luxury spending takes a hit, possibly as a result of shrinking disposable income, according to recent data from Consumer Edge (CE), a provider of global consumer transaction data. In the U.S., one of the largest markets in the world for fast fashion and luxury shopping, spend on fast fashion grew 2% compared to the same period last year, according to CE data. This is a sharp contrast to spending in the direct-to-consumer (DTC) luxury industry where in 2023 spending was down over 7% compared to the nearly 15% increase in 2022. “Our data points to the challenging macroeconomic environment having a considerable impact on spending habits in 2023,” said Michael Gunther, Vice President and Head of Insights at Consumer Edge. “The bifurcated performance, with more affordable fast fashion increasing while luxury brands decrease, is likely because of a squeeze on real incomes. This dynamic logically plays out in the luxury sector where products tend to have a higher price tag.” Fast Fashion vs Luxury One of the big winners in fast fashion in the U.S. is Chinese fast fashion giant Shein. The company continued to exhibit robust growth throughout the year. In the 10 months of 2023, Shein’s sales increased by more than 20% compared to the same period in 2022 Another winner in fast fashion was Uniqlo, which was up 28% in 2023. Shein now has the biggest share of fast fashion spend in the U.S. (c40%). One of the casualties of Shein’s rapid growth appears to have been H&M, which has seen its share of U.S. spend decline by about 2ppts in the 12 months to November 2023. Luxury bore the brunt of a relatively soft appetite for discretionary spend. Major brands, such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci and Burberry have all exhibited sizable declines in spend growth in 2023. Hermes, however, has been the bright spot in the industry; the brand has seen spend increase by close to 15% in the first 10 months of 2023. Resilient Older Shoppers CE data also showed that younger shoppers in the U.S. (younger than 35) appear to have had a decreasing appetite to purchase both fast fashion and luxury products compared to last year. This decreased demand could reflect lower discretionary incomes that leave them in a more challenged position to weather macroeconomic pressures. In 2022, 11% of shoppers aged 35+ in the U.S. purchased a fast fashion product. This has remained the same in 2023. In the luxury segment, 10% of shoppers aged 35+ purchased a product in 2022, while in 2023, the number stood at 9%. The potential obstacle to the expansion of fast fashion in the U.S. arises if there is increased emphasis on sustainability, similar to the trend in France and Italy, where governments incentivize individuals to repair their worn-out clothing and footwear. Insights Methodology Consumer Edge highlights observed panel sales for its Fast Fashion and Luxury aggregates and top individual brands across the US and UK/EU. The Consumer Edge panel consists of US ~40M debit and credit cards. About Consumer Edge Founded in 2009 by CEO Bill Pecoriello, Consumer Edge is a data and insights as a service (IaaS) company delivering unparalleled views into global consumer spending behavior coupled with deep industry knowledge and analytical expertise.

Maroon 5 wows a packed festival crowd at the 8Wonder Winter Festival in Phu Quoc

VinFast Auto

PHU QUOC, VIETNAM - Media OutReach Newswire - 19 December 2023 - By the time the festival lights came down at the 8Wonder Winter Festival in Phu Quoc, legendary pop-rock icons Maroon 5, supported by a host of top Vietnamese stars had turned in an incredible series of performances lasting over 6 hours. A global audience of over 4 million online viewers tuned in to watch the headliners perform hit songs from their incredible catalogue, and the 11,500-crowd gathered at Phu Quoc United Center were left breathless. Maroon 5 stunned participants with an "explosive" 75-minute performance. From the first familiar beats of 'Moves Like Jagger', an excitable and energetic crowd at Phu Quoc Grand World Square "exploded" with excitement as the band took the stage. The six members of the legendary group appeared against the backdrop of the giant "Heavenly Sphere" stage under the theme "from twilight till first light", with amazing visuals that lit up the whole Grand World Square. The 75-minute show included a selection of Maroon 5's best-loved classics, taking the audience on a musical journey through a three-decade legacy. In addition to the dynamic opening song, other hits performed included 'This Love', 'Sunday Morning', 'Payphone', 'One More Night', and 'Sugar'. For the amassed fans gathered at the festival, and to those watching online, the craftsmanship and passion of the six experienced band members was all too evident, and Maroon 5 worked tirelessly to ensure the adoring crowd enjoyed every moment. This was the first chance for Vietnamese audiences to get an up-close and personal look at each of the talented band members, from the bombastic, funk-laden drumming of Matt Flynn, the intricate and precise fretwork of guitarists James Valentine & Jesse Carmichael, to the thunderous bass of Sam Farrar and the arrangements of keyboard player PJ Morton. The Grand World square automatically turned into a world-class "music paradise," resonating with cheers each time the familiar song lyrics began. As the setlist progressed, Adam Levine took time to involve the Phu Quoc audience in some backing vocals on tracks like 'This Love', 'Memories', 'Animals', 'Maps', 'Don't Wanna Know'. But the highlight of the evening was an impromptu visit to the audience to serenade watching fans, supported by guitarist Valentine on 'She Will Be Loved'. Levine's effortless charm was encapsulated when mid-song he used a fan's phone to take a selfie video with lucky audience members, creating a truly memorable moment at 8Wonder Winter Festival. Addressing the crowd during the show, Levine enthused over his enjoyment in Vietnam and the band's delight at being invited to the festival, "We're so honored to be here in beautiful Vietnam for our very first show. It took us 20 years to get here, but we'll definitely come back, and next time it'll definitely be sooner!" Vietnamese stars add their talent, energy and passion to an unforgettable night of music. The thousands of spectators amassed at Phu Quoc United Center not only had the opportunity to enjoy international superstars Maroon 5, but also got to savor a diverse musical feast featuring a plethora of famous Vietnamese artists. Explosive performances, including new hits and creative collaborations between Toc Tien and GreyD, Phuong Ly and JustaTee, Double2T and Xe Xe and the band Mau Nuoc rocked the stage of 8Wonder, and dazzled local music fans. One of the unique highlights of 8Wonder Winter Festival was the eye-catching debut performance of the VF 7 Dragon Forged model, appearing onstage with EDM virtuoso Touliver and the Hoang Thong dance group. This is a limited edition of the VinFast VF 7 with only 68 cars made, which will go on sale from January 1, 2024. This year's edition of 8Wonder Winter Festival provided an excellent opportunity to elevate the destination of Phu Quoc (translated as Pearl Island), a majestic tropical island paradise with world-class beach resorts, sunny skies and jaw-dropping sunsets. Further, the festival and its associated series of events and activities continue to draw attention towards the increasing stature of Vietnam as a prime tourist destination for global travellers. Indeed, that wonderfully positioned Phu Quoc as a picture-perfect beach destination. Speaking before the festival, Juergen Doerr, CEO of Vinpearl, said: "After major music festivals like 8Wonder, we expect international tourists to know Vietnam as a country of beautiful, friendly, and unique tourist destinations. With the added value of world music superstars and the elevated level of event experience, 8Wonder will be the leverage for Phu Quoc and Vietnam to become world-famous, loved, and attractive destinations to attract many tourists to return." The huge investment in world-class facilities along with the event's professional crew, sound, lighting and stage equipment and the collection of top Vietnamese music stars exceeded all expectations. The all-in-one ecosystem of culinary, entertainment and discovery offerings enabled 8Wonder Winter Festival to successfully deliver a top-notch festival experience for the thousands who flocked to Phu Quoc for this year's event. According to industry experts, Vietnam's ability to organize world-class music events has now been confirmed after two seasons of 8Wonder Festival. With Charlie Puth taking centre-stage in Nha Trang earlier this year, and Maroon 5 performing in Phu Quoc, 8 Wonder music festival has reached an elite stature as one of the top global entertainment events and music festivals, similar to Tomorrowland and Coachella. As this year's 8Wonder festival comes to a close, organizers can look back with pride after witnessing 6 hours of entertainment history in Phu Quoc, Vietnam. Maroon 5's blockbuster performance, ably supported by famous Vietnamese artists has created a journey of "Infinity Wonder" for thousands of audiences in the most beautiful sunset setting in Vietnam, have truly opened the door for more world-class events, all of which cannot help but to enhance Vietnam's popularity and position as one of the world's most attractive tourist destinations.

Investing in Cryptocurrency? Consider These 3 Top Picks for December 2023

Total Media

As December unfolds, the crypto market continues its journey, with Ripple (XRP), Avalanche Crypto (AVAX), and Pullix (PLX) gaining considerable attention. Each of these coins brings unique characteristics to the table. However, while XRP and AVAX are well-known, PLX is a new ICO currently in Stage 2 that experts forecast could become a 100x token in 2024. With over 3.2M tokens already sold, let’s find out what makes it appealing. The Galaxy CEO Mike Novogratz recently admitted he was wrong about Ripple (XRP). He stated that Ripple has now evolved into an institution with an XRP army behind it that supports its ecosystem. In terms of the Ripple price movement, it increased from $0.60 on December 13 to $0.63 on December 14. From a technical analysis standpoint, this bullish trend may continue as the Ripple crypto has now experienced 16 out of the last 30 days trading in the green. Moreover, it now has over 24 bullish technical indicators - great signs for its future. Due to all these reasons, experts forecast the Ripple value reaching $0.65 before the end of December 2023 - making XRP a good crypto to buy. Avalanche Crypto (AVAX): Open Interest Reaches New High On December 12, the Avalanche Crypto (AVAX) open interest reached a new all-time high of $413M after a month of buildup. The Avalanche Crypto price surged, rising from $27 on December 7 to $38 on December 14. The technical analysis of Avalanche Crypto also paints a bullish picture, with its value now sitting above its 50 and 100-day EMAs. It also boasts a 72 (Greed) on the Fear & Greed index. This is a bullish chart for Avalanche Crypto, and market analysts have taken notice. Therefore, they foresee its value reaching $41.58 before 2023 finishes in their Avalanche Crypto price predictions. Pullix (PLX): The Best Cryptocurrency To Buy Today Pullix (PLX), a relative newcomer, has swiftly made its mark with its unique approach to trading. This hybrid DeFi trading platform will allow you to trade all asset classes, including cryptocurrencies, forex, gold, and stocks, all within a unified account. Since it combines the best aspects of CEX and DEX, you will also experience a 1000:1 leverage, deep liquidity, and much more. This crypto ICO event has caused a frenzy among the crypto community, with global investors flooding the PLX presale. It is now in Stage 2 but has already sold 3.2M tokens while raising $134,400. But this interest was not caused by the exchange only; Pullix will incorporate many components in its ecosystem: Lending Protocol: Money markets for lending and borrowing, which will manage pools of assets with fixed interest rates. Copy Trading: An AI-backed algorithm will allow you to replicate the trades of other successful Pullix traders and capitalize off their choices. VaultX: This decentralized, multichain yield optimizer will let you compound interest on your cryptocurrencies for the highest APYs. All these features are powered by the PLX native token, now worth only $0.042. However, as the presale advances, so will its value. Those who bought it early on are already enjoying a 5% ROI. Since it taps into many markets, like the forex market, which Baby Pips claims is the biggest, experts are bullish that PLX could rise by 580% during its presale. This makes PLX the best crypto to buy right now. Final Remarks While December is underway, altcoins such as Ripple and Avalanche could rise. However, their growth is hindered by their high market caps ($34B and $14B), respectively. On the other hand, Pullix will not have this issue as it boasts a low market cap of $8M. This means it would only need $8M for its value (and returns) to double. You can capitalize on this growth by signing up for its presale.

Europa Oil & Gas still aiming to increase Wressle flow rate

Europa Oil & Gas (Holdings) PLC

Europa Oil & Gas (Holdings) PLC (AIM:EOG) chief executive William Holland speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive London after the exploration and production company released a production update from its 30% owned PEDL180/182 licence at the Wressle oil field in Lincolnshire. Holland starts by detailing the journey from introducing a jet pump in November, which technically enabled a production potential of over 1,000 barrels a day, to achieving a stable production rate of 550 barrels daily. This stability, however, was initially constrained by the surface pump's operation and water handling capacity. Addressing the challenges of water production, a common occurrence in oil wells, Holland explained the necessity of the jet pump. It was installed to manage the increased hydrostatic pressure caused by water, thereby maintaining oil flow. Despite the pump's effectiveness in boosting oil production, limitations arose due to the lack of adequate facilities for water disposal. A breakthrough came with the Environment Agency's permit, received on December 14th, allowing for proper water disposal. This development has enabled Europa Oil & Gas to gradually increase production rates, currently around 680 barrels per day, with an emphasis on cautious reservoir management and optimisation. Holland emphasises the importance of balancing water handling, avoiding additional water production, and adhering to gas flaring limits. The company aims to increase production further, with careful consideration of reservoir health and maximising recovery rates. The CEO also touched on Europa Oil & Gas’s other ventures, particularly the Cloughton project. He hinted at potential announcements regarding new drilling locations in collaboration with the Duchy of Lancaster. Contact Details Proactive UK Ltd +44 20 7989 0813 uk@proactiveinvestors.com
