CNBC is live from Paris where Emmanuel Macron has become the first French President to be re-elected in 20 years. The incumbent defeated his far-right rival with 58 point 5 percent of the vote. He told CNBC now is the time to get to work after divisive elections. National Rally leader Marine Le Pen conceded defeat, but hailed a stronger showing compared to 5 years ago and pledged to redouble efforts ahead of legislative elections in June. Global equities come under pressure, with US futures lower, after the Dow suffered its worst one-day loss since 2020 amid a four-week losing streak. Asian equities sink as Beijing races to contain an "urgent" COVID outbreak, while the death toll in Shanghai triples - dimming prospects of lockdown measures loosening. Earnings once again take centre stage with Alphabet, Amazon and Apple all reporting this week.
