0:47Now PlayingProtesters stormed the entrance hall of stock exchange operator Euronext NV’s offices in the La Defense business district, outside Paris, as opposition to French President Emmanuel Macron’s pension reform lingers even after the plan was enacted earlier this month.
French television showed images of railway workers and others chanting and waving union flags.
A spokeswoman for Euronext said the protest, which was over by 1 p.m. local time on Thursday, had no impact on its operations and hadn’t disrupted trading.
