Retailers Kingfisher, B&M and Next backed to benefit from subdued housing market
Kingfisher PLC (LSE:KGF), B&M European Value Retail SA (LSE:BME) and Next PLC (LSE:NXT) were named as RBC Capital Markets' preferred UK retail plays as the broker predicted that the housing market would "hold up rather than surge". RBC said subdued housing activity and fragile consumer confidence would continue to weigh on home-related spending.
Summers online shopping trend favours Next but weighs on Primark, says Citi
Currys PLC (LSE:CURY), Tesco PLC (LSE:TSCO) and Kingfisher PLC (LSE:KGF) were among the retailers tipped to benefit from signs that UK consumer spending strengthened in June, while Primark owner Associated British Foods PLC (LSE:ABF) could be one of the main loser as shoppers increasingly bought online. Analysts at Citi said industry data from the British Retail Consortium and Barclaycard pointed to a sequential improvement in retail sales, driven by stronger demand for non-food products.
