Eight Trends To Watch In China's Luxury Sector
2011-12-25 08:58:00 Interesting (and blisffully short and to the point) PowerPoint on luxury goods over at the The China Observer Blog, entitled, "Eight Trends to Watch in China's Luxury Sector." What I found most interesting about the eight trends is that none of them came as much of a surprise to me, and it is not as though I now much at all about luxury goods in China. The eight trends did not come as a surprise because they seem to show that China's luxury goods consumers are not all that different from luxury goods consumers in most of the rest of the world. A year or so ago I read an article (wish I could find and link to it) that posited that the elites in most countries around the world have a lot in common with each other and more than they do with the non-elites in their home countries. I buy that and this eight trends PowerPoint seems to be further proof of that. Do you agree?
