Hundreds of thousands of protesters are expected to march through French cities on Thursday, and public sector workers are set to strike. The demonstrations are a new test for President Emmanuel Macron after weeks of unrest that have unsettled his government. The turmoil has also dominated the political agenda five months before a presidential election.

📊 What it means for markets

Political unrest in France may add pressure on the euro, French government bonds and European stock sentiment. Effects on gold, oil, USD and crypto are often limited unless the situation changes policy or the wider economy.
