By Alun John and Mateusz Rabiega LONDON (Reuters) -LVMH shares opened up 12% on Wednesday, a day after the luxury group reported better-than-expected sales in the third quarter, driven by improved demand in China and prompting a sector-wide rally. The world's largest luxury group's shares jumped 12% in morning trading to 597 euros per share. Peers Hermes, Kering, Richemont, Burberry and Moncler were up between 5% and 7%. The rise reported by LVMH on Tuesday represents the first quarter of growth this year for the company, a sector bellwether with operations spanning fashion, alcohol and retail. Analysts saw the results beat as a good sign for continued recovery, with Bernstein highlighting that sales exceeded expectations across all divisions. JPMorgan analysts said they believe the overall environment is positive enough to expect a generally better luxury reporting season.
