A pedestrian carries a Louis Vuitton shopping bag, from a store operated by LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE, on New Bond Street in London, U.K., on Wednesday, Oct. 21, 2020. Luxury goods giant LVMH on Monday became the first European company to surpass $500 billion in market value. Its shares hit a record high following the results, and hit another high on Monday. It reported revenue of 79.2 billion euros ($87.1 billion) for 2022, with profit from recurring operations of 21.1 billion euros — its second consecutive year of record results.

A plot of sand in Dubai half the size of a football field sold for $34 million, per Bloomberg. The 24,500 sq ft plot — about half the size of a football field — is on Jumeirah Bay Island, a man-made island in the shape of a seahorse. Jumeirah Bay Island is man-made, like the World Islands and Palm Jumeirah. GooglePrices on Jumeirah Bay Island are so expensive because there were only 128 plots originally put on offer. By comparison, there are thousands of homes on the tree-shaped Palm Jumeirah island, and 300 in the World Islands archipelago.
PARIS, April 14 (Reuters) - LVMH (LVMH.PA), the world's largest luxury goods group, has agreed to buy a majority stake in Platinum Invest Group, the owner of French jewellery producers Orest and Abysse, with an eye to bulking up production for its U.S. jeweller Tiffany. With the purchase of the company, which runs five workshops in eastern France and employs 800 people, Tiffany will accelerate production of fine and high end jewellery, the companies said in a statement. Platinum Invest will also continue to produce jewellery for existing clients outside of LVMH as well as other labels in the luxury group, which also owns high end jewellery brands Bulgari and Chaumet. Riding a wave of post-pandemic demand for high end goods, European luxury groups have been tightening their hold on supply chains. Financial terms of the deal to purchase Platinum Invest from private equity firm Andera Partners and French public investment bank BPIfrance were not provided.

European labels including LVMH's Louis Vuitton and Dior, as well as Chanel and Hermes have been riding a wave of strong demand from Americans, who emerged from lockdowns with savings and a desire to splash out on designer labels. He added the group is taking a cautious approach to price increases this year -- not just for cognac. "It's probably the most emblematic luxury store in the world," said Guiony. Elliott Savage, portfolio manager of U.S.-based fund YCG Investments, which holds shares in LVMH and other luxury brands, said a weakening U.S. luxury market in the near term could present an opportunity for dominant players to take market share.

After years of camping and booking cheap Airbnbs, I got my first taste of luxury when I stayed at four five-star hotels around the world. Joey Hadden/InsiderCheap Airbnbs, free campsites, and sleepless nights crammed in cars in Walmart parking lots used to be the norm for me. My introduction to luxury started during a train trip to Miami in October 2021. It was my first experience at a luxury hotel, and once I experienced this level of service, it left me craving more upscale stays. With returning celebrity guests like Sting, Travel and Leisure called it one of the most fashionable hotels in Italy.
Nudged by private equity funds, those supplying the booming luxury goods industry are now finding strength in unity. Largely family-owned and small in size, these businesses often struggle to meet the changing needs of the luxury brands they work for. "Luxury brands have been growing exponentially: our customers needed us to grow with them," said Nicola Giuntini, whose Tuscany-based company makes luxury coats and jackets for brands including Celine, Burberry (BRBY.L) and Stella McCartney. PRODUCTION NICHESItaly's manufacturing sector has also been a hunting ground for big luxury brands keen to secure their supply chain. Italian private equity firm XENON International, for example, has bet on producers of materials and finishes for luxury items which it has grouped together in MinervaHub.

În anii 1840-1845 orașul Cahul și-a schimbat întrucâtva înfățișarea, căpătând trăsături caracteristice unui centru de județ. În 1857 în Cahul a lucrat câteva luni ca judecător clasicul culturii românești, savantul cu renume mondial – Bogdan Petriceicu Hașdeu. Îndrăgind acest plai, va scrie mai târziu despre locul acesta, despre râul Prut și orașul Cahul, admirând vitejia și înțelepciunea localnicilor. În perioada postbelică orașul Cahul devine principalul centru economic și cultural de sudul Moldovei. Astăzi, Ziua orașului v-a fi marcată printr-un concert susținut de Maestrul Eugen Doga, Paula Seling, Stela Botez, Maria Sarabaș și Ioana Căpraru.

Reacția vine după ce un avion de luptă MiG-29 aparținând forțelor aeriene din Bulgaria s-a prăbușit, miercuri, în Marea Neagră, în timpul unor operațiuni militare. Totodată, Consiliul Atlantic solicită ministrului interimar al apărării să analizeze urgent impactul întârzierilor de către partea rusă a implementării contractelor privind reparația avioanelor de luptă Mig-19 și a pregătirii piloților. Potrivit sursei citate, este foarte important să se clarifice dacă există o legătură între pregătirea de luptă a piloților bulgari, mult sub standardele NATO, și acest incident. Consiliul Atlantic insistă pentru suspendarea imediată a tuturor activităților privind extinderea folosirii aparatelor MiG-29.

Ţara a fost criticată în repetate rânduri de Comisia Europeană pentru că nu a reuşit să elimine corupţia şi că nu a trimis niciun funcţionar guvernamental de rang înalt după gratii pentru corupţie. Departamentul Trezoreriei din SUA a informat, miercuri, într-un comunicat că aceasta este cea mai importantă acţiune a Washingtonului împotriva corupţiei din Bulgaria de până acum. Premierul bulgar interimar Stefan Ianev a declarat că a fost informat telefonic despre decizie de subsecretarul de stat american pentru afaceri politice, Victoria Nuland. În 2013, Delian Peevski fusese propus la șefia serviciilor secrete, dar în cele din urmă numirea sa a fost anulată în parlament.

Un om de afaceri din Bulgaria i-a dat în judecată pe militarii americani care participau la un exerciţiu NATO şi i-au luat cu asalt, din greşeală, fabrica de ulei. Trupele participau la un exerciţiu NATO în care simulau capturarea şi securizarea unui aerodrom părăsit. În timpul misiunii, soldaţii au pătruns într-o fabrică situată în vecinătate, despre care au crezut că era parte a zonei de antrenament. Militarii au mers peste tot, a fost o încălcare ilegală a proprietății mele private", a declarat proprietarul fabricii, Marin Dimitrov. Potrivit presei din România, în iunie 2019, tot în cadrul unui exerciţiu NATO, mai multe tancuri au intrat pe câmpurile de porumb şi floarea soarelui ale agricultorilor din Feteşti.

Departamentul Trezoreriei informează într-un comunicat că aceasta este cea mai importantă acţiune împotriva corupţiei din Bulgaria de până acum. Astfel, Departamentul Trezoreriei a impus sancţiuni împotriva omului de afaceri şi oligarhului Vasil Krumov Bojkov, de 64 de ani, acuzându-l că a plănuit să creeze un canal prin care liderii ruşi să influenţeze guvernul bulgar. Informațiile despre faptul că Vladimir Plahotniuc s-ar fi întâlnit cu Vasil Bojkov la mijlocul lui septembrie, în Emiratele Arabe Unite au fost dezvăluite în cadrul emisiunii Secretele Puterii de la Jurnal TV. Potrivit surselor citate, Plahotniuc ar fi încercat să obțină azil politic în Emiratele Arabe Unite, în condițiile în care din partea Turciei i-ar fi greu să obțină acest lucru, pentru că Republica Moldova are tratat de extrădare cu acest stat.
