Estee Lauder Faces Headwinds In Korea's Travel Retail, But Demand Strength Remains A Tailwind, Bullish Analyst says


27% profit every 20 days?

This is what Nic Chahine averages with his option buys. Not selling covered calls or spreads… BUYING options. Most traders don’t even have a winning percentage of 27% buying options. He has an 83% win rate. Here’s how he does it.


  • Telsey Advisory Group Analyst Dana Telsey reiterated an Outperform rating on the shares of Estee Lauder Companies, Inc. (NYSE:EL) with a price target of $250.
  • The analyst believes limited visibility to Korea’s travel retail recovery. This, coupled with a slower rebound in international travel, may pose headwinds for the company. 
  • The lag in Asian travel retail can represent lost business and profitability, the analyst notes. 
  • However, the channel’s forward recovery prospects and the strength in demand across the rest of the business are a tailwind.
  • The analyst expects the company to benefit from solid margins driven by increased near-term investments in brand building, manufacturing, R&D, and IT that can further accelerate profitability improvement as FY24 progresses.
  • These apart, the new manufacturing facility that has just opened in Japan will help ease lead times to the market and improve inventory management.
  • In addition, the recovery of China over time presents more growth opportunities, the analyst adds.
