Market Insight: One of the world's most expensive stocks is getting cheaper
The stock of the Swiss cult chocolate brand Lindt & Sprüngli is experiencing an unusual phase of weakness. This makes the valuation of the quality stock increasingly tempting, says Jakob Blume.
For shareholders accustomed to success, it's an unfamiliar experience: the share price of Swiss chocolate makers Lindt & Sprüngli is going through a pronounced weakness phase. Over a period of just twelve months, the share price is down around ten percent, and in euros, it's even down 18 percent. Since its all-time high in July 2025, the share has lost almost 35 percent of its value.
This makes one of the most expensive shares in the world increasingly affordable: over the past five years, a share rarely cost less than 100,000 francs.
In the meantime, the price is hovering around 95,000 francs - not far off the five-year low of 90,800 francs. The price slump affects a share that was considered the epitome of a quality title, promising stable growth over decades. But Lindt & Sprüngli is currently paying the price for a strategy that has already caused problems for other premium brand manufacturers.
