French stocks, represented by the CAC 40 Index, experienced a 0.8% decline following two days of gains due to lingering political risks. The Stoxx Europe 600 Index also decreased by 0.2%, with basic resources, insurance, and travel shares leading in gains while real estate and technology suffered losses. Despite inflation falling to the Bank of England's target, the UK's FTSE 250 Index experienced a slight decline. The market volatility in Europe is expected to stabilize ahead of the French elections despite concerns over Marine Le Pen's party gaining political power.
