๐ LULULEMON UNDER PRESSURE: IS THE US CONSUMER SHOWING SIGNS OF WEAKNESS?
Lululemon has just released its Q2 resultsโฆ and the market did not like them. ๐
Comparable sales fell by 9%, while comparable sales in the Americas dropped by 12%. The company also lowered its 2026 outlook.
๐ฅ At the same time, tariffs remain a major issue for the group, which says it is facing significant uncertainty about their future evolution and impact.
And that is where the signal becomes interesting for markets:
๐บ๐ธ Macro: the United States just created 162,000 jobs in August, with unemployment steady at 4.1%, showing that the labor economy is still solid.
๐ช Micro: some companies exposed to the American consumer are nevertheless starting to feel more pressure on their business.
โ๏ธ The paradox: an economy that remains resilient, but companies that have to deal with tariffs, costs, and more difficult consumption.
For crypto markets, this divergence is important ahead of the next Fed decision.
๐ A solid economy may give the Fed fewer reasons to ease policy quickly.
๐ But growing pressure on companies and consumption could, over time, fuel growth concerns.
๐ Next key event: US inflation data next week.
In your opinion, which signal will the Fed prioritize: labor market strength or signs of pressure on companies? ๐
