Burberry tracks a long history and is one of the most iconic british luxury fashion brand. Its iconic trench coat, cashmere scarf and burberry check pattern constitutes its timeless deisgns.
Burberry is a classic cyclical company.
Timing is extremely important to deal with consumer discretionary stocks, it does the worst in a downturn and the best in the upturn.
As peter lynch suggest , entering when it become worst to ok or ok to good .
Some personal experience of bad market timing is baba i entered at 150ish looks cheap and its earning and growth rate fell accordingly to the economy down to 70ish. Same for Burberry entering at 1450ish look ok but despite a 45% drop it has since drop to 1200ish thats a 60ish% drop from all time high.
Burberry is still an extremely high class business , i look to get in when fundmentals start to improve and wait on the side lines.
