Markets are firmly higher as global equities extend their record‑breaking run, driven by strong corporate earnings and continued momentum in technology. The TSX is advancing, supported by gains in financials and industrials, while U.S. markets are climbing again with all major indexes pushing deeper into all‑time highs. Strength is also spreading globally, with Asia and Europe following Wall Street’s lead as investors remain focused on earnings and AI‑driven growth.
Commodities are mixed but stabilizing. Oil is pulling back modestly after recent volatility, while gold is rebounding sharply from recent lows as traders step back into safe‑haven assets. Copper is slightly weaker as profit‑taking emerges, and natural gas is climbing. Bitcoin is lower in Canadian‑dollar terms as crypto consolidates despite the broader equity rally.
