(RTTNews) - French stocks eked out modest gains in cautious trade on Thursday ahead of inflation figures from the euro zone and the U.S., due later in the day.

The benchmark CAC 40 was up 11 points, or 0.2 percent, at 7,375 after closing 0.1 percent lower in the previous session.

In corporate news, drug manufacturer Sanofi edged up slightly after shuffling its executive committee.
