The CAC 40 index finished 0.8% higher at 7,726 on Monday, extending afternoon gains as market confidence stabilized following a pivot toward diplomacy in the Middle East. The rally was firmly anchored by President Trump’s confirmation of productive dialogue with Tehran and a five-day suspension of military action, a development that effectively neutralized the immediate threat to energy security and global trade routes. While the broader easing of geopolitical tension pressured TotalEnergies down 1.3% amid falling crude prices, the prospect of lower input and logistical costs catalyzed a surge in cyclical and industrial heavyweights, with Airbus advancing 3.4% and Safran rising 2.%. Luxury bellwether LVMH gained 1.9% as easing global risks bolstered the outlook for high-end discretionary spending.
