Paris Bourse limits losses after hitting five-year low

Paris Bourse limits losses after hitting five-year low Paris - After falling to a five-year low, the Paris Bourse rebounded on Friday to limit its losses amidst anxiety about corporate earnings and OPEC's announcement that it will cut oil production by 1.5 million barrels per day.

The benchmark CAC 40 ended the session off by 3.54 per cent, at 3,193.79, after plunging more than 10 per cent earlier in the day to its lowest level since May 2003.

Car maker Renault was the day's biggest loser, giving up 12.55 per cent, to 22.20 euros, its lowest level in 10 years.
