Kering SA was the biggest negative contributing to portfolio returns following a warning that Gucci’s sales will fall by approximately 20 per cent. in the first quarter due to a larger than expected decline in the Asia Pacific region. Overall, the comparable expected sales at Kering, which also owns brands such as Balenciaga and Saint Laurent, is expected to fall with approximately 10% for the period.
