INTRO

Good evening. It's Thursday, June 11. I'm Sharon, and this is Closing Price from ALT/FNDATA.

Tonight: a relief rally across luxury, Hugo Boss surged on the Frasers takeover bid, and Ferrari bounced back, one day after Wall Street's worst session of the year.

LUXURY EQUITIES — THE CLOSE

The luxury names rallied today. In Paris, LVMH, ticker MC on Euronext Paris, closed at 493 EUR, up about 1.1% from Wednesday's 488. Kering, ticker KER, closed at 259 EUR, up about 1.3%. Hermès, ticker RMS, closed at 1,643 EUR, up about 0.5%.

In Zurich, Richemont, ticker CFR, closed at 174 Swiss francs, up about 2.7%, the strongest of the European names. Swatch, ticker UHR, closed at 202 Swiss francs, up about 1.2%.

In London, Watches of Switzerland, ticker WOSG, closed at 705 pence, up about 0.6%, and Burberry, ticker BRBY, closed at 1,138 pence, up about 1.8%.

HUGO BOSS — THE STANDOUT

The biggest move was in Hugo Boss. The stock, ticker BOSS in Frankfurt, closed at about 40 EUR, up about 9% on the day. That jump came as the market took in Mike Ashley's Frasers Group takeover approach. Frasers already owns roughly 26% of Hugo Boss, and WWD reports its offer at around 2 billion euros. Frasers itself, ticker FRAS in London, closed at 779 pence, up about 1%.

FERRARI AND THE US NAMES

In New York, Ferrari, ticker RACE, bounced back from yesterday's drop, closing up about 5.5%, near 366 dollars. Signet, ticker SIG, closed up about 6.8%, near 92 dollars, and Zegna, ticker ZGN, closed up about 3.5%, near 15 dollars.

GOLD AND SILVER

The metals recovered too, after yesterday's selloff. Gold traded back up to about 4,175 dollars an ounce, up about 1.6%. Silver was up about 2.4%, near 66 dollars.

NIKE AND THE WORLD CUP

One consumer-brand note. Nike, ticker NKE, is making a major bet on this summer's World Cup, the largest in the tournament's history. Business of Fashion reports the sportswear giant is rolling out a blockbuster campaign, with stars from Kylian Mbappé to Kim Kardashian, as it tries to reignite brand heat and sales on home turf.

THE TAPE

On the broad tape, the mood flipped. After Wednesday's worst session of 2026, the Wall Street Journal reports investors largely shrugged off the Middle East tensions today, with attention turning to corporate earnings, including Oracle. Oil fell back, which eased some of the inflation worries that had weighed on stocks the day before. Still, the World Bank offered a more cautious view on the bigger picture, cutting its global growth forecast for the year to 2.5%, and warning it could fall to 1.3% if the fallout from the Middle East conflict spreads to markets.

THE BOARD

Across our board, every luxury name finished higher today, led by Hugo Boss at up 9% and Signet at up nearly 7%, and both gold and silver recovered from yesterday's selloff.

WEEK AHEAD

On the calendar: tomorrow, June 12, Christie's holds Important Watches in New York, opens its Paris Hermès handbag sale online, and Sotheby's runs its Gem Drop. On Saturday, June 13, Bonhams sells about 100 cars from the National Automobile Museum in Reno, and Phillips holds its New York Watch Auction. Sotheby's Important Watches follows on the 15th.

OUTRO

That is Closing Price for Thursday, June 11. Tickers covered: MC.PA, KER.PA, RMS.PA, CFR.SW, UHR.SW, WOSG.L, BRBY.L, BOSS.DE, FRAS.L, RACE, SIG, ZGN.

I'm Sharon, from ALT/FNDATA. Open Bid returns tomorrow morning at 6 AM Eastern.
