Does Macron resign as President of France? French bonds plummet due to rumor

Rumors of President Emmanuel Macron's potential resignation caused a significant drop in French government bonds, but were quickly denied by a close associate of the president.

On June 11, rumors regarding the possible resignation of French President Emmanuel Macron led to a swift sell-off of French government bonds. The situation arose after a radio station reported that Macron might step down, causing investor panic and questioning the future stability of his administration. A person close to Macron promptly refuted these claims, emphasizing that he is not contemplating resignation and that a press conference is scheduled for June 12 to discuss his legislative campaign.
