Canada’s TSX index closed above the 30,000 mark on Tuesday, rebounding from a slow start on the day thanks to a steady rise in the gold price to more than US$3,850 per ounce, offsetting losses in oil stocks driven by OPEC+ commitments to increase production. The index briefly hit the milestone for the first time on September 23.

The Nasdaq and S&P 500 also closed higher, despite a looming government shutdown over budgetary disagreements slated for 12:01 am on Wednesday, potentially delaying economic data the U.S. Fed relies on to set interest rate policy.
