01[11:28] {@Threei}  - Shares of luxury goods name Michael Kors are down nearly 8% in the early going despite a pretty strong first quarter report. The firm widely beat top- and bottom-line expectations, saw a 24% gain in comps and raised its FY15 outlook. However on the conference call, executives warned that margins would be compressed due to increased markdowns and disclosed a big increase in inventories, hitting the stock hard.
