Paris (AFP)

The Paris Bourse opened sharply up 1.08% on Wednesday, attempting to pick up in the wake of the rebound in US markets on Tuesday and ahead of the September PMI activity indicator estimates.

At 9:00 a.m., the CAC 40 index rose 51.33 points to 4,824.17 points.

On Tuesday it had failed to bounce back, losing 0.40%, its fifth consecutive decline.
