The Pros and Cons of Crowdfunding

Are Luxury Brands Overexposed? China's Cool Young Designers Tap New Routes to Market

ADVERTISEMENT

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW TODAY: WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29, 2023 More brands are turning to crowdfunding as a way to raise cash and cement customer loyalty. Some investors fear luxury brands are overexposed, but ubiquity risk has barely risen, calculates columnist Luca Solca. There's a new crop of cool, young designers in China but international buyers must cast their nets wider than usual to find them. Quiet luxury is trending — but we've been here before. Check out what BoF had to say the last time minimalism was having a moment. Lululemon said it expects full-year sales to come in above analyst estimates, betting demand for its high-end athleisure will hold up.

The message below is one we think you should take a close, serious look at. Dear Reader, Back in the 1950s, you could get an education… Start a family… And buy a nice house in the suburbs on a $100,000 salary. Not anymore. Seven decades later, incomes have not kept pace with the cost of living. The coveted six-figure salary "is not what it used to be." And the American dream is in peril. According to economist Nomi Prins, "In cities across America, the folks in the middle class are struggling to keep a roof over their heads," As a result, the American middle class is shrinking… And thousands of Americans could soon become impoverished… The Fed can't raise rates enough to stop inflation… And they absolutely won't stop fabricating money. But Nomi believes there is an opportunity to make huge gains… With just a few well-placed investments. You can either use it to grow your wealth… Or you can ignore it… hope for a 'return to normal'… and risk missing out on this historic wealth-building opportunity. The choice is yours. If you make the right moves, you could set yourself up for the retirement of your dreams. Watch Nomi's latest video on what she calls "The Great Distortion" to understand the biggest transfer of wealth in history.
