1026 GMT - LVMH's fortunes in the months ahead should remain strongly correlated with industry trends, Jefferies analysts write in a research note. Given its size and its presence in various segments of the luxury sector, the French conglomerate's results are likely to serve as a benchmark for the industry as a whole, they say. Investors may choose to focus on the sequential improvement of the company's core fashion and leather goods division, the analysts add. Insights into consumers' willingness to spend in the higher price segments in the U.S. and Europe will be crucial, as will details on the extent to which Chinese consumers with lower purchasing power will recover, Jefferies says. Shares are up 0.5%. (andrea.figueras@wsj.com)
