The MACD is significantly below its signal line, which suggests the market is running out of bearish momentum and could revert to a positive outlook as bulls regain control.

Overall, looking at the technical analysis landscape, although technical indicators are mixed and pointing in different directions, it seems CAC 40 is set to appreciate despite today's setback.
