00:00We can't ignore Macron's top gun moment at Davos.
00:04His aviator sunglasses that went viral and even boosted shares of their maker Henri Julien by nearly 28%.
00:12So what's your take on the matter?
00:14Was it a full-blown political faux pas or can we let this one slide?
00:19Catalina, those shares are now up.
00:21They closed up 70% today over the past few days.
00:25And listen, I think there's probably more buying to come.
00:30They closed what's called Limit Up, meaning the Italian authorities, the shares are traded in Milan.
00:35The Italian authorities had so much demand that they reached their daily limit on how much the shares could rise,
00:41would suggest that there's some pent-up buying that we might see into next week.
00:45Listen, I'm here to tell you, I loved them.
00:48If I had a spare $770 lying around, I would definitely get a pair.
00:53The explanation is that President Macron has a benign but aesthetically unpleasing eye condition.
01:01And he was seen in these glasses at a local speech in France last week.
01:06But my God, what a stir they have caused.
01:09And look, this Davos was so gloomy.
01:12A little bit of light relief in talking about Macron's sunglasses was quite welcome.
01:18I'll see you next time.
