LVMH shares, however, slumped after a disappointing first-quarter revenue from the world’s largest luxury group underscored the damage caused by the trade war.

GENEVA: European shares rose on Tuesday as investors digested fast-changing US tariff plans, while shares of LVMH slumped after a disappointing first-quarter revenue from the world’s largest luxury group underscored the damage caused by the trade war.

The pan-European STOXX 600 climbed nearly 1%, as of 0802 GMT, with most regional indexes in positive territory – except for France’s CAC 40, which dipped 0.1%. The decline was dragged down by a 7.7% drop in LVMH, set for its steepest fall since March 2020, if losses hold.

The bellwether for the luxury sector said shoppers in the US cut spending on beauty products and drinks, while sales in China stayed weak during the quarter.
