The Liv-ex 1000 index – the broadest measure of the market – dipped 0.32% in April to close at 353.12. The industry benchmark, Liv-ex 100, also fell by 0.2% this month. Both indices have failed to make gains this year.
Within the Liv-ex 1000 sub-indices, the Rest of the World 50 was the biggest riser, up 1.7%. The Rhone 100 followed suit, up 1.5%. All the other sub-indices either ran flat or dipped.
For the third month in a row, the Burgundy 150 was this biggest faller, down 1% this month. In our latest Burgundy report, we questioned how long the region could sustain its stratospheric prices. The year has clearly started with a pause. It would seem for now that Burgundy trophy-hunter’s enthusiasm has been curbed.
