On September 11, LAOPU GOLD fell 4.02% in regular trading, trading at 365.8 HKD/share, with turnover of approximately HKD 65.70 million, extending its recent weak trend.
On the news front, gold jewelry prices per gram have fallen below 1,330 yuan, shedding roughly 80 yuan in less than half a month. The sharp pullback in gold prices has weighed heavily on downstream retail, with leading brands having net-closed over a thousand stores in H1. Morgan Stanley previously cut full-year net profit forecasts by 2%-3%, projecting H2 revenue to decline approximately 11% year-over-year, implying only 3% profit growth in the second half. JPMorgan estimates offline same-store sales growth bottomed in Q2, with H2 year-over-year declines narrowing to 15-20%, though H2 revenue and earnings are still expected to fall roughly 24% and 21% respectively due to a high base. Meanwhile, the near-50% discount on the company's products in the secondary market continues to fuel debate over the sustainability of its brand premium, with multiple headwinds compressing near-term sentiment.
