France Stock Market Index (CAC 40)

CAC 40 fell by 0.21% on Friday October 24, trading at 8,208.68 with a weekly gain of 0.42% and monthly gain of 4.87%. Political instability stemming from Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu's resignation has negatively impacted the CAC 40 by increasing sovereign borrowing costs and widening sovereign spreads. Weakening domestic growth data including a contraction in the HCOB France Composite PMI and a fall in industrial production, signals reduced private sector activity and potential earnings pressure for cyclical sectors affecting the CAC 40. Major French banks listed on the CAC 40 such as Société Générale, Crédit Agricole and BNP Paribas, are experiencing increased pressure from rising borrowing costs and potential credit tightening, thereby impacting the index. Its 52-week high was 8,271.48, while its 52-week low was 6,763.76.
