What BBN said about it

  1. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorAxios says France is a warning sign for the markets. Lola Cruz is live in Paris. Lola, how bad is it out there?

  2. Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentVera, Axios reports the big shifts in global bond markets mostly reflect economic fundamentals, not crisis-style panic. That's the good news.

  3. Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentThe bad news, per Axios: the disruptions could metastasize into a broader crisis, with politics fractured across major democracies.

  4. Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentThere is turmoil in the streets of France this week.

  5. Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentI've covered four wars and one gas shortage, and this café just charged me nine euros for a lukewarm espresso. That is the real crisis.

  6. Lola Cruz · Senior Field CorrespondentA pigeon just stole my croissant. I have seen this move before, and it's a Long Beach seagull in a beret. We will settle this.

  7. Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThank you, Lola. Bond turmoil, street unrest and a pigeon heist. Honestly, it's a gift.
