The futures contract on the CAC 40 took 0.17% forty minutes before the opening of the session. The day before, he had finished up 0.78% at 5,499.14 points.

Quoting a Chinese official close to the negotiations, the Bloomberg news agency reported Wednesday that Beijing did not really expect to reach a big deal, but that the Chinese would accept a limited deal if US President Donald Trump waived the additional tariffs that he threatened to implement by the end of the year.
In exchange, Beijing could make some concessions like the large-scale resumption of orders for agricultural products.
