Baby Bunting (ASX:BBN), Australia's largest baby goods retailer, has been volatile amid cost-of-living pressures. In July 2026, Pendal Group reported Baby Bunting fell after management downgraded second-half FY26 expectations on softer recent sales, noting younger families are under pressure. HMC Capital, which holds Baby Bunting as a high-conviction investment, noted a 10% rally in May as capital rotated back into discounted retail stocks, after a significant retracement driven by rising interest rates and cost-of-living pressures. SG Hiscock also highlighted the recovery.
