CAC 40: Slightly down before American consumer prices

After eight consecutive sessions of increase, the stock market suffered profit taking yesterday, in the wake of luxury stocks. The Parisian index finally ended sharply down 1.14% at 7,394 points, pending American inflation and the ECB’s decision on Thursday.

Unibail lost 3.05%, LVMH 2.54%, Schneider Electric 2.24%, Kering 2.21%, Safran 2.14% and Hermès 1.93%. However, automobile stocks held up. Stellantis gained 0.99%, Renault 0.78%, Pernod Ricard 0.49% and Crédit Agricole 0.46%.

The American indices also closed in the red, further penalized by technology stocks. The S&P500 lost 0.3% to 6034 points, the Nasdaq100 0.34% to 21368 points and the Dow Jones 0.35% to 44247 points.

This morning, the CAC40 fell by 0.1% in pre-opening.
Operators will take note of consumer prices at 2:30 p.m. then oil stocks at 4:30 p.m.
The consensus expects a CPI index to rise by 0.3% (0.2% last month), or an annual increase of 2.7% (2.6% previously). The Core CPI index is expected to increase by 0.3%, like the previous month.

In hourly data, the CAC40 index is beginning a consolidation movement. The first bearish objective remains set around 7350 points but breaking this level would open the way to 7282 points.
