CAC-40 Gains As Sentiment Improves Globally
(RTTNews) - CAC-40 is trading more than a percent higher than the levels on Friday as sentiment improved globally amidst strong expectations that the expected dip in Consumer Price inflation in the U.S. would goad the Fed into a more dovish monetary policy stance.
