Markets relieved at the prospect of Macron's victory in French elections

Europe's markets, and the Paris stock exchange in particular, showed relief on Monday at the prospect of France's centrist candidate winning the second round of presidential elections due next month by posting significant rises.


The euro rose to a five-month high after the first round of voting had left Emmanuel Macron in the run-off vote due on May 7.
