@Retail_Guru "No surprises at LVMH. Says luxury demand vs Q1 stable ex high Japan lap. But as vs high end like Cartier & affordable stuff like Coach $LVMUY brands LV & Dior are struggling. Not an industry swoon but more brand/price/innovation fatigue. $CFRUY $HESAY $PPRUY $TPR $RL"

"Heres Capital One echoing $JPM & peers. US consumer is source of strength as labor markets remain strong driving wage gains. There are pockets of weakness but getting better on margin. Thats driving lower delinquencies & higher payment rates at $COF. $XLF $XLY"

"Amex is strong AND its clients are very desirable. Despite 'risky' bet $AXP millennial delinquencies XX% below industry-wide boomer/GenX & only 60bp above its own highly rated Boomer/GenX cohort. And they're spending faster & giving more wallet share. $V $MA $XLY $XLF"
