Inditex Faces €15 Billion Loss and 10% Decline Amid Market Reaction to Record Earnings Results

Inditex, the parent company of Zara, has faced significant market backlash following its recent financial results, which failed to meet analyst expectations. The company's stock has dropped over €15 billion in value in the past two trading sessions alone. Analysts are divided on the outlook for Inditex, with some expressing concerns over the impact of tariffs imposed by former President Donald Trump and the broader European economic conditions. Despite reporting record results, the market reaction has led to a 10% decline in Inditex's stock over the past week. The company is now moderating its growth to single digits while improving its margins, prompting questions among investors about the future viability of holding Inditex shares in their portfolios.
