PARIS--French President Francois Hollande said Sunday that his
government is planning to keep stakes it owns in some of the
country's largest companies because their share price is too low,
but he didn't rule out sales in the future.
"Why--as far as companies such as France Telecom SA (FTE.FR) and
GDF Suez (GSZ.FR) are concerned - are we not selling? Because we
consider that their share prices are not high enough," Mr. Hollande
said in an interview broadcast on M6, a French television
channel.
Mr. Hollande added that the government stands ready to sell to
raise funds for investment.
"This exceptional income will be assigned to investment (...) in
new technologies, in innovations, in companies," Mr. Hollande
said.
