[ad_1] Image source: Getty Images Over the last couple of years the Burberry (LSE: BRBY) share price has been on a huge rollercoaster ride. After losing 79% of its value, and finding itself relegated to the FTSE 250, it finally bottomed last September at 556p. Then, in a few short months the stock doubled in price before losing virtually all of the gains in the tariff-induced sell-off.
