But many analysts believe the wider economic impact of the Paris shootings will be short-lived. "As horrific as these events are - and this is truly awful - economic activity does tend to be pretty resilient. At the end of the day, people have to get on with their lives," said Howard Archer, an economist at IHS Global Insight.
