(RTTNews) - French stocks are moving in a tight range on Monday, with the mood turning a bit cautious after recent gains amid easing concerns about trade tensions.

The benchmark CAC 40 was down 46.64 points or 0.6% at 7,723.84 a few minutes ago.
Teleperformance is down by about 3.4%. Kering is lower by 1.6%, while Sanofi, Safran, Saint Gobain, Air Liquide, Vinci, Carrefor, ArcelorMittal, LVMH and Schneider Electric are declining 0.5 to 1%.
Among the gainers, AXA is gaining 1.7% and Bouygues is advancing 1.5%. Renault, Credit Agricole and Unibail Rodamco are up nearly 1%.
Airbus, Eurofins Scientific, Legrand, L'Oreal and Orange are up 0.7 to 0.85%, while Societe Generale, Edenred, Stellantis and Bureau Veritas are up with modest gains.
