Societe Generale's first-quarter earnings beat expectations, helped by cost cuts and a recovery in the French retail division. Those gains more than offset a sharp contraction in fixed income trading sales, pointing to improving core fundamentals but lingering volatility in markets revenue. The print is modestly positive for the stock and supports the bank's turnaround narrative.
