Canada Goose cuts annual profit forecast on feeble demand in crucial market China

Canada Goose Holdings trimmed its annual profit forecast and missed market estimates for third-quarter revenue on Thursday due to choppy sales in China, a key market for luxury goods, sending its shares down 4% in morning trading. Weak consumer spending in China, which is grappling with youth unemployment and a property crisis, has been a major concern for the luxury goods industry and has slowed demand recovery in the region, significantly impacting brands such as Canada Goose. U.S. luxury retailer Estee Lauder, which bet on China, expanded a restructuring plan on Tuesday that involves up to 7,000 job cuts as the cosmetics giant grapples with persistent demand weakness, especially in Asia.
