Paris shares close down on profit-taking, Wall St drop; EADS leads CAC lower

        PARIS (Thomson Financial) - Share prices ended slightly lower, as investors
claimed profits after last week's rally, encouraged by an early fall on Wall
Street. Aerospace giant EADS led the CAC-40 downwards amid rumours of further
delays to its A380 superjumbo programme.
    The CAC-40 index finished down 6.35 points or 0.13 percent at 5,063.36.
    Among CAC-40 stocks, 15 closed higher and 25 closed lower. On the Matif, May
CAC-40 futures were trading at 5,022.
    On the broader indices, the SBF-80 index closed down 2.35 or 0.04 percent at
5,792.69 and the SBF-120 closed down 4.18 or 0.11 percent at 3,667.54. 
    The euro was quoted at $1.5479 compared to $1.5430 late Friday.
