CAC 40
The CAC 40 index is trading higher today, currently at €8,286.19, marking a +0.49% increase. This upward movement comes amidst a cautious European market, influenced by rising oil prices due to doubts over the US-Iran ceasefire deal and ongoing geopolitical tensions. Investors are also closely monitoring global central banks reversing course with rate hikes as inflation reignites, alongside movements in US 10-year Treasury note yields.
