20 June 2025, 23:15  France: French Stocks Rebound on US and Iranian Uncertainties.

The CAC 40 rose 0.5% to close at 7,589 on Friday, snapping a three-day losing streak and rebounding from a one-month low. Investors remained focused on the Middle East after the White House said President Trump will decide within two weeks whether the US will intervene in the Israel-Iran conflict, indicating that the president still prefers a diplomatic solution, but made it clear that he is ready to use force if necessary. Meanwhile, European diplomats met in Geneva with Iran’s foreign minister, who rejected resuming nuclear talks while Israeli strikes continue, stating, “you don’t negotiate under bombardment.” Domestically, the industrial climate indicator fell to 96 in June, below expectations and marking the lowest level since January. On the corporate front, gains were led by Airbus (3.7%), Axa (2.4%), and Kering (2.3%), while Teleperformance (-3.1%) and Capgemini (-2.7%) posted the biggest losses.
