CONSUMER CYCLICALS
  • Most of the action comes next week on Lufthansa & Air-France earnings. We already noted out scepticism on further compression and/or positive rating action for the network carriers but markets have ignored that and reversed some of the sell-off from Lufthansa’s profit warning last week.
  • Only mover this week was Wizz Air 26s (Ba1, NR, BBB+) – it preceded the unscheduled trading update yesterday that was taken as positive after it firmed up FY guidance to bottom of its original range but above analyst consensus. We got broad strokes on BS that included intention to continue deleveraging. It brings FY23 results (ending march) late next month.
