With a push from the gold stocks, the $TSX pushed above the previous highs of 14000!
You can see in the following chart the lifting has been shared across most sectors with a noticeable pause on the financials and industrials.
Interesting though, in the last week, the $SPX outperformed almost every Canadian sector again!
Stay tuned, the roller coaster continues. I thought it was interesting that both Arthur and I focused on Utilities in our ChartWatchers post today. That big orange histogram has been strong as shown in Chart 2, even though the Canadian Utilities underperformed the $SPX last week.
Good trading,
