Preliminary results of the first round of presidential elections in France give incumbent President Emmanuel Macron 27.40% of the vote, Marine Le Pen 24.58%. The euro opened the week even with a rising gap. But it should be noted that Le Pen trailed Macron by 6% in preliminary polls, while the vote narrowed the gap to 2.8%. At the current stage, we doubt Le Pen's victory in the final, but there is certainly no cause for great optimism for the euro, as the political shift in France has become much more to the left.
