JHVEPhoto/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Three months after my previous coverage , Marriott International, Inc. ( MAR ) has already weakened by 2.1%. While the bullish trend remains evident, technicals have already shown overbuying and warranted some caution as it became more expensive. We may attribute it to the recent events and the cautious stance ahead of the Q1 2026 results. In my view, this was logical in line with its valuation and external risks. Its fundamentals and dividends are still attractive, but we cannot deny that the stock price has already increased too much. MAR Q1 2026 The hotel industry has remained strong despite the views about the end of revenge travel. Marriott International, Inc. continued to prove that it could sustain its growth despite the potential decrease in travel hype amid stubborn inflation and geopolitical tensions. Prudent pricing strategies and solid brand recognition still paid off. All these things were seen in its most recent performance. In Q1 2026, its operating revenue amounted to $6.65B , up by 6.2% YoY from $6.26B. This YoY growth was higher than in my previous coverage at 4.1%. In fact, this has been its strongest performance in the past year or since I started covering it. For instance, its YoY growth in Q3 2025 was 3.7% YoY, while 4.1% YoY in Q2 2025, and 4.7% YoY in Q1 2025. This could tell us that revenge travel was not over for MAR. As you can see, revenues from both fee-based and leased/ownership-based models increased by over 10%. They also made up for the slower growth in cost reimbursements. Various factors drove it. One was its strong pricing power. Marriott was able to raise its average daily rate and ADR without sacrificing occupancy. Occupancy dropped in the Middle East and Africa, which should not be surprising considering the tension in the region. But the rest of the world had higher occupancy despite having higher daily rates. With that, you can say that its demand increased. This may be supported by...

Aleksandr Fedosov/iStock Editorial via Getty Images In our last update , we analyzed Ermenegildo Zegna N.V. ( ZGN ) 2025 results. We were positively impressed by the company's solid set of results, with top-line sales reaching €1.91 billion and performance holding up better than peers. That said, we reiterated a neutral view. This was supported by Macro Uncertainty , with regional headwinds from the escalation in the Middle East and potential margin pressure. Given a fair valuation and our revised 2026 projections, Zegna's stock offered only modest upside. As a result, we concluded to wait for a more compelling entry point. This was not a good call, and Zegna shares have increased by almost 19%. Therefore, today, we are back to comment on the company's performance after the Q1 release. Mare Ev. Lab Previous Rating Update Fig. 1 Q1 Results Zegna reported only top-line sales data, split by segments, geographic areas, and distribution channels. That said, our deep dive remains on the company's Q&A call insights and long-term view, which we will assess in the next paragraph. The company reported Q1 organic sales growth of +7%, exceeding the Wall Street consensus of +6%. In terms of turnover, the group reached €470 million. The real growth engine was the Zegna and Tom Ford Fashion brands, up 11% and 5% organically, respectively (Fig. 2). On the other hand, Thom Browne's sales were down by 3%. By channel, the company reported (again) solid DTC momentum, especially in the Zegna brand. On the other hand, wholesale sales reached €64.3 million, down 19.1% year-on-year. By geography, the company reported solid performances in all regions. Most importantly, China turned positive (+5.3% - Fig. 3) after a prolonged period of underperformance and lower sales growth. The Americas and the EU were up by 17.5% and 1.4%, respectively. Zegna sales by brand Fig. 2 Zegna sales by GEO Fig. 3 Why are we still Neutral? Heightened global uncertainty has weighed (once again) on investor sentim...
