Der Dow Jones und Nasdaq starten freundlich in den Handel, nachdem auch die Erzeugerpreise für Juli auf eine weitere Abkühlung der Inflation hindeuten. Zusammen mit den bereits moderateren Verbraucherpreisen und dem schwachen Juli-Arbeitsmarkt nimmt das den Renditen etwas Druck und reduziert das Risiko einer Zinsanhebung der Fed im September. Gute Zahlen sind nicht automatisch gut genug. Cisco, Coherent und Cerebras übertreffen die Erwartungen und geben jeweils einen besseren Ausblick, werden aber trotzdem verkauft. Cisco spricht sogar von einem „Networking Supercycle“, nachdem die Produktaufträge um 35 Prozent gestiegen sind und allein von Hyperscalern KI-Aufträge über 4 Milliarden US-Dollar eingingen. Coherent profitiert massiv vom Wechsel der KI-Rechenzentren von Kupfer zu optischen Verbindungen und liefert ebenfalls Zahlen und Ausblick über Konsens. Außerhalb der USA sorgt Lenovo mit einem Umsatzsprung von 43 Prozent und einem Wachstum von 98 Prozent im Infrastrukturgeschäft für ein Ausrufezeichen, während Birkenstock den Jahresausblick für Umsatzwachstum und EBITDA anhebt. Analystenseitig erhöht JPMorgan das Kursziel für Microsoft auf 625 US-Dollar und sieht KI als zentralen Treiber einer Wachstumsbeschleunigung bei Azure und Microsoft 365.

Mauricette bretzel et accent qui claque, le tandem alsacien Laura Felpin x SML se lance dans une conversation de qualité : aussi confortable qu'une Birkenstock blanche (en écailles de dragon de Khaleesi), au vocabulaire aussi fleuri qu'un village cinq fleurs, aux saveurs de fruit cru et lait végétal. Quelques questions pour illustrer le vortex : Agrumes et clapet oesophagien font-ils bon ménage ? Les vieux sont-ils vraiment tous sourds ? Pourquoi les riches ne puent pas des pieds ? Biennale ou kermesse ? Gazpacho ou gaz pas froid ? Les oursons sont-ils des friandises de parapharmacie ? A choisir un opéra, vous prenez le gâteau, le bâtiment, le style musical ou la station de métro ?Le titre d'or : « Impossible qu'elle ne bronche pas. » Le point vie pratique : « Je dors en mâchant un chewing gum, il y a deux semaines il s'est collé dans mes cheveux. » Le point poésie : « J'aimerais être une sorte de Yolande Moreau. »La vérité puisqu'on ment : « Quand tu tires un poil, il y a un bulbe au bout. » La citation à méditer : «Le système dit qu'il faut que tu t'appelles Jean-François. » Hébergé par Acast.

From Uniqlo sweatpants and Birkenstock clogs to oversized basics, Gen Z fashion has become instantly recognisable. While some see this shift towards comfort and practicality as a reflection of changing priorities, others argue that individuality and creativity are slowly being replaced by trends driven by social media. So, is Gen Z really taking the art out of fashion? Or are they simply redefining what fashion means today? On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Mark Heng, Founder and designer of Maroon Clothing, to explore how Gen Z is shaping Singapore's fashion culture, whether social media is diluting personal style, and what it will take to build a more creative fashion identity in Singapore.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Summer Remix: Album 8 Track 6 - Step Up. Speak Up. Move Up. w/Shawna HausmanBrand Nerds, get ready to take some serious notes! On this episode of Brands, Beats and Bytes, hosts Darryl "DC" Cobbin and Larry "LT" Taman sit down with retail and digital marketing powerhouse Shawna Hausman. From her scrappy early days in the Gap Inc. universe to driving a massive 300% sales increase as CMO of FSA Store, Shawna has built an incredible career by stepping up, speaking out, and never letting fear dictate her next move.Shawna takes us behind the scenes of some of the most iconic retail brands, sharing hilarious and anxiety-inducing stories, like the time she told retail legend Mickey Drexler that his marketing wasn't working when she was just a 22-year-old intern! We also dive deep into the modern marketing landscape, discussing everything from the rise of AI to why heritage brands like Birkenstock are winning by refusing to compromise their identity.Whether you are looking to climb the corporate ladder, pivot into consulting, or simply understand the psychology of retail sales, this episode is packed with "Triple C" leadership advice: Clarity, Conviction, and Courage.What You'll Learn in This Episode:The Mickey Drexler Story: How a bold critique from a young intern led to an unexpected seat on the corporate jet with the "Merchant Prince" himself.Avoiding the "Mushy Middle": Why brand overlap (like the historical dynamic between The Gap and Old Navy) can eat your own market share, and why you must carve out distinct lanes.The Power of Executive Buy-In: Shawna gets vulnerable about her biggest career "F-up" involving an unapproved $40,000 app at West Elm, and why you absolutely need skin in the game from your key overlords.Embracing AI: Why marketers must lean into artificial intelligence tools rather than fearing them, and how it is revolutionizing the way we work today.The Birkenstock Strategy: How "winning ugly," maintaining scarcity, and leaning unapologetically into comfort and heritage is keeping Birkenstock at the top of the footwear game.Fearless Career Growth: Why you should never stay in a miserable job just for the money, and how taking calculated risks leads to the real magic.Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and share with a fellow Brand Nerd!Instagram | LinkedIn

Episode 304 reunites The Analysts — Remarkable Retail's celebrated panel of Forrester's Sucharita Kodali, Guggenheim's Simeon Siegel, and GlobalData's Neil Saunders — to take stock of retail coming out of earnings season. Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc open on the paradox of 2026: results are largely strong, sentiment is dismal. Simeon argues the link between the two is "tenuous at best" — people talk one way and spend another. Neil has the data: roughly 60% of shoppers who expect the economy to worsen still spent more than a year ago, propped up by spring tax refunds that won't repeat. Then the K-shaped economy. Higher-income households drive most of the real volume growth; middle-income shoppers prop up value growth mainly because prices are higher. Sucharita revisits "peak ambiguity" and the "vibe session," noting record sales barely outrun stubborn inflation. The panel unpacks the standouts — Ross's 17% comp, Victoria's Secret up 15% — and debates GLP-1's role in surging apparel and beauty: wardrobe replacement, new confidence, trading up to statement pieces. On turnarounds, Simeon lands the episode's sharpest thesis: brands "ubiquitize" and peak around $3–4 billion in the US. Lululemon got too big, over-distributed, and over-earning — so the bad sales have to "walk out the door" before the brand can re-elevate, the same lens that frames Nike's long reset. He and Sucharita draw the Gap parallel ahead of Simeon's on-stage interview with Mickey Drexler, noting Old Navy now dwarfs Gap itself. Neil makes the case for Macy's under Tony Spring — basics fixed first, satisfaction and visitation improving — while Steve stays skeptical of the pace. Next, the DTC reckoning. Simeon reframes his old "DTC is not all it's cracked up to be" call as "anti-anti-wholesale": outside high-margin luxury, nearly every brand needs a healthy wholesale business — and stores remain the best channel because "the customer is your employee." Sucharita pushes back on the AI narrative, reminding everyone it's far more than generative hype, as the panel digs into why scaled players — Amazon, Walmart, Costco, off-price — keep compounding through retail media, marketplaces, and flywheel economics. It closes on the wealth effect, trillion-dollar market caps, and whether a market correction could rattle high-end spending — then rapid-fire hot takes: brands to watch (Cozey, Ross Stores, Goyard) and what's on each analyst's radar, from inflation and surging oil prices to a quiet "middle of the doughnut" news lull and an election year's hunt for stability.

What does it take to lead a 250-year-old brand across eight Southeast Asian markets in an era of TikTok commerce, agentic AI, and fragmented consumer journeys? In this episode, we sit down with Evelyn Chua, Managing Director for Southeast Asia and Oceania at Birkenstock, who brings 15 years of retail leadership across luxury fashion, beauty, wines and spirits, and e-commerce.Evelyn shares how she has navigated some genuinely distinct career transitions: from DFS and the world of travel retail, to the fast-moving world of e-commerce at Synergy, to her current role shaping Birkenstock's regional strategy. Her career is a masterclass in what it means to build breadth without sacrificing depth.In this conversation, we explore:How the consumer journey has fundamentally shifted, and why there is no longer one dominant channelHow Birkenstock protects its premium positioning in a region as fragmented and fast-paced as Southeast AsiaWhy AI reinforces rather than replaces the importance of brand clarity and consistencyThe hybrid skills that retail leaders need today compared to five years agoWhat Evelyn tells her team when they are afraid to say "I don't know"Her three pieces of advice for anyone navigating a career in retail: stay positive and adaptable, build breadth, and stay groundedWhether you are a seasoned retail professional wondering how to stay relevant, or an early-career leader figuring out which moves to make next, Evelyn's perspective is grounding, practical, and genuinely generous.Connect with us on LinkedIn: ·       Vanessa Iloste (Host)·       Vanessa Teo (Host) ·       Aaron Wu (Producer)

In this very special live edition of The Voice of Retail podcast — the first live recording in nearly 550 episodes on the main-stage at Retaiul Council of Canada's STORE conference — host Michael LeBlanc takes the stage at Retail Council of Canada's STORE Conference in Toronto with three of Canadian retail's most compelling leaders: Julia Freeman, CEO of The Jilly Box, David Brownstein, President of Browns Shoes, and back on the podcast for his third visit Selwyn Crittendon, CEO of IKEA Canada and newly appointed Chair of the Retail Council of Canada Board of Directors. Julia Freeman shares the remarkable story of The Jilly Box, co-founded by content creator Jillian Harris — fresh off her Independent Retail Ambassador of the Year 2026 award — which sells 20,000 surprise subscription boxes in under 24 hours, 27 seasons in a row, while championing small Canadian, women-owned and equity-deserving brands. Julia offers a candid assessment of the state of Canadian e-commerce, the patriotic "shop Canadian" wave reshaping consumer behaviour post-tariffs, and how The Market by The Jilly Box marketplace is delivering industry-leading conversion with four units per basket. David Brownstein, fourth-generation leader of Montreal-based Browns Shoes, celebrates a banner week as his father, CEO Michael Brownstein, received the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Excellence in Retailing Awards Gala. David reveals the store design philosophy behind Browns' 71 locations — wide entrances, best merchandise up front, AI-embedded traffic counting — plus why Browns has never hired a store leader from outside in 86 years, and why brand partners like On, Birkenstock and UGG are complements, not competitors. Selwyn Crittendon lays out IKEA Canada's grounded AI philosophy: better retailing, better operational efficiency, and better jobs — built on clean data, mandatory AI literacy training for 7,200 coworkers, and a firm commitment that AI augments rather than replaces people. He also unpacks IKEA's small-format expansion strategy, from plan and order points pioneered in Canada to the new London, Ontario store and IKEA's bold SoHo move in New York, and explains why sustainability paired with affordability is "the new superpower of retail." The conversation ranges from family business dynamics and talent retention to influencer marketing strategy — including Julia's advice that your associates and small business partners may be your most powerful untapped brand ambassadors — and wraps with David's three keys to retail success today: empower frontline employees to make customer-service decisions, break down organizational silos to stay agile in the AI era, and invest relentlessly in retaining great people. Recorded in front of a live studio audience — complete with a surprise Jilly Box giveaway featuring the sold-out first-ever men's box — this episode captures the energy, optimism and hard-won wisdom of Canadian retail's best, and Selwyn's reflections on why he stepped up to chair the RCC board during turbulent times. Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E. LeBlanc & Company Inc, a senior retail advisor, keynote speaker and now, media entrepreneur. He has been on the front lines of retail industry change for his entire career. Michael has delivered keynotes, hosted fire-side discussions and participated worldwide in thought leadership panels.

Birkenstocki, czyli sandały i klapki na korkowej podeszwie, powracają, a w zasadzie nigdy nie wychodzą z mody. To must-have w cieplejszych dniach roku, kiedy zwalniamy tempa, a wybór codziennych stylizacji przychodzi nam z łatwością. Ze względu na wygodę i styl trudno wyobrazić sobie lato bez Birkenstocków. I jeśli mielibyśmy wskazać jedną rzecz, w którą warto zainwestować w ramach wiosenno-letniej garderoby, zdecydowanie byłyby to właśnie buty, które sprawdzą się jako dopełnienie sukienek i spódnic.

What happens when three celebrities land in the same ultra-exclusive rehab — and someone ends up dead? That's the opening of Such Sheltered Lives, the electric adult debut from New York Times bestselling author Alyssa Sheinmel. Host Samantha Tennant sits down with Alyssa for a wide-ranging conversation about the leap from YA to adult fiction, the joys and challenges of writing multiple narrators, and how she crafts twists that feel both surprising and inevitable on the second read. They also dig into Alyssa's fascinating work as a collaborative and ghost writer — including her official novels for Umbrella Academy, Outer Banks, and The Haunting of Sunshine Girl — and what it means to inhabit characters you didn't create. Plus: Fresh Fiction Facts, dream casting, and a very strong case for Birkenstock clogs.

There are voices that entertain.And then there are voices that remind us who we are.In this episode of Gems of Arabia, we enter a deeply reflective conversation with TamTam, an artist whose journey extends far beyond music. What unfolds is not simply a story of sound, but a meditation on identity, intention, and the quiet strength of authenticity.From her earliest encounters with melody to her presence on global stages, TamTam's path is rooted in something deeper than performance. It is about trust. About surrender. About returning to that inner voice we often outgrow, yet never truly lose.Presented in collaboration with Birkenstock ME, this episode moves beyond the structure of an interview. It becomes a dialogue between craft and culture, where music, movement, and presence intersect with meaning.At Gems of Arabia, we believe culture is not something to be observed from a distance. It is something to be felt, lived, and carried forward.Through TamTam, we are reminded that authenticity is not an act.It is truth, lived out loud.Discover more cultural conversations:https://gemsofarabia.com/Instagram Promo:https://www.instagram.com/p/DWrESpdF_Di/#GemsOfArabia #TamTam #BirkenstockME #CulturalEdit #SaudiCulture #MusicAndCulture #Authenticity #CreativeVoices #ArabArtists #MiddleEastCulture #ArtAndIdentity #GemsInFocus

Retail earnings season just wrapped, and the headlines are telling one story while the data tells another. Consumer sentiment is dismal. Tariffs are squeezing margins. Geopolitical uncertainty looms. Yet average retail revenues grew 7-9% in Q4, and consumers keep spending. How do you reconcile these contradictions? Simeon Siegel, Senior Managing Director at Guggenheim Securities and one of Wall Street's most data-driven retail analysts, cuts through the noise with a simple philosophy: "The first thing I look at is revenues. Because it's very easy to conflate growth rates with revenue sizes."In this episode of The Retail Pilot, Ken sits down with Siegel to dissect what's really happening in retail beyond the sentiment surveys and macro doom-scrolling. From Nike's "dying" $47 billion business to Gap's viral comeback, from the D2C myth to why NPS scores should be banned from boardrooms, Siegel brings his signature contrarian analysis backed by hard numbers. This isn't about feelings—it's about what consumers are actually doing with their wallets, which stocks are positioned to win, and why the retail industry's most cherished beliefs might be leading CEOs astray.In this episode you'll learn:Why consumer spending remains strong despite abysmal consumer sentiment—and what that divergence really meansThe revenue vs. narrative disconnect: How Nike can be "dying" with $47-49 billion in salesWhich retail subsectors are winning and losing in the K-shaped economy (hint: it's a market share story, not a demographic one)Simeon's top stock picks for 2026: Why he's bullish on Nike, TJX, Ross, Birkenstock, Planet Fitness, and CapriThe real impact of tariffs on Q4 earnings: What retailers passed through vs. what they absorbedWhy Gap Inc.'s comeback under Richard Dickson is working—and whether it's sustainable beyond the hypeThe one KPI Simeon wants banned from retail boardrooms: Net Promoter Score (NPS) and why it misleads executivesWhy "D2C is not all it's cracked up to be": The data-driven case for wholesale distributionHow the Iran conflict could impact consumer spending, gas prices, and petroleum-based athleisure costsThe department store survival blueprint: What Macy's, Nordstrom, and off-price retailers are getting rightWhy TJ Maxx's lack of e-commerce is actually an asset for moving premium brand inventory "invisibly"Don't forget to subscribe to The Retail Pilot podcast for more conversations with retail industry leaders and visionaries shaping the future of commerce.If you missed our last episode, where Terry Lundgren (former Macy's CEO) and Jan Rogers Kniffen dissect the Saks Global bankruptcy, predict the future of department stores, and reveal why some retailers will survive while others won't, be sure to tune in.Connect with Ken:-Follow Ken Pilot Ventures on LinkedIn, Instagram, and YouTube.Hosted on Ausha.

Album 8 Track 6 - Step Up. Speak Up. Move Up. w/Shawna HausmanBrand Nerds, get ready to take some serious notes! On this episode of Brands, Beats and Bytes, hosts Darryl "DC" Cobbin and Larry "LT" Taman sit down with retail and digital marketing powerhouse Shawna Hausman. From her scrappy early days in the Gap Inc. universe to driving a massive 300% sales increase as CMO of FSA Store, Shawna has built an incredible career by stepping up, speaking out, and never letting fear dictate her next move.Shawna takes us behind the scenes of some of the most iconic retail brands, sharing hilarious and anxiety-inducing stories, like the time she told retail legend Mickey Drexler that his marketing wasn't working when she was just a 22-year-old intern! We also dive deep into the modern marketing landscape, discussing everything from the rise of AI to why heritage brands like Birkenstock are winning by refusing to compromise their identity.Whether you are looking to climb the corporate ladder, pivot into consulting, or simply understand the psychology of retail sales, this episode is packed with "Triple C" leadership advice: Clarity, Conviction, and Courage.What You'll Learn in This Episode:The Mickey Drexler Story: How a bold critique from a young intern led to an unexpected seat on the corporate jet with the "Merchant Prince" himself.Avoiding the "Mushy Middle": Why brand overlap (like the historical dynamic between The Gap and Old Navy) can eat your own market share, and why you must carve out distinct lanes.The Power of Executive Buy-In: Shawna gets vulnerable about her biggest career "F-up" involving an unapproved $40,000 app at West Elm, and why you absolutely need skin in the game from your key overlords.Embracing AI: Why marketers must lean into artificial intelligence tools rather than fearing them, and how it is revolutionizing the way we work today.The Birkenstock Strategy: How "winning ugly," maintaining scarcity, and leaning unapologetically into comfort and heritage is keeping Birkenstock at the top of the footwear game.Fearless Career Growth: Why you should never stay in a miserable job just for the money, and how taking calculated risks leads to the real magic.Don't forget to subscribe, rate, and share with a fellow Brand Nerd!Instagram | LinkedIn

The episode begins with a deep dive into the latest retail and economic headlines that are shaping the landscape. Steve and Michael dissect the U.S. government shutdown, its ripple effects on employment, and how cost-cutting in Washington could further weaken an already fragile job market. They then examine new tariffs on furniture, cabinets, and agricultural exports, highlighting how the policies are squeezing retailers and farmers alike—particularly soybean producers, who have been hit hard by China's retaliation.The hosts also analyze the latest on TikTok's uncertain U.S. future, as political maneuvering opens the door to a controversial joint venture involving major tech and media figures. In retail performance, Costco's continued dominance and Nike's early turnaround efforts take center stage, as both giants adapt to shifting consumer sentiment and inflationary pressure. The segment concludes with a discussion of AI's growing impact on the workplace, holiday hiring trends, and how discretionary spending and de minimis trade rules could redefine retail economics on both sides of the border.Then, in a wide-ranging interview, David Kahan, President & CEO Birkenstock Americas delivers a masterclass in brand stewardship and retail strategy. He traces Birkenstock's roots from a humble German cobbler to a global fashion phenomenon—revealing how the brand's success rests on “never deviating from its DNA.” Every product begins with the footbed, he says, making comfort, health, and purpose inseparable from style.Kahan credits Birkenstock's ongoing cultural resonance—from the Barbie movie to red carpet collaborations—to disciplined brand management and “engineered distribution.” He explains how each Birkenstock store is a unique community experience, blending tactile engagement with hyper-local curation. The conversation also touches on leadership philosophy, emphasizing humility, trust, and an unwavering focus on brand equity over short-term sales.     About UsSteve Dennis is a strategic advisor and keynote speaker focused on growth and innovation, who has also been named one of the world's top retail influencers.
