The Paris stock market, represented by the CAC 40 index, has experienced a downturn, closing below 8,000 points amid ongoing trade uncertainties. The index fell nearly 1% at the close, reflecting a broader trend seen across global markets, including Wall Street, where the S&P 500 and Nasdaq also declined due to new tariff announcements. Companies such as Trigano and Air France-KLM have been particularly affected, with Trigano facing challenges related to excess inventory. Analysts note that the automotive sector is under pressure following recent tariff threats from the U.S. government. As of the latest reports, the CAC 40 remains on a downward trajectory, with concerns over inflation and additional tariffs contributing to the market's volatility.
