2026.02.0314:45:01UTC+00TSX Extends Rebound for 2nd Session

The S&P/TSX Composite Index climbed approximately 0.8% to exceed 32,400 on Tuesday, marking its second consecutive session of recovery. This upturn was bolstered by gains in leading commodity producers as gold prices experienced a sharp rebound and oil prices showed stability. In particular, gold mining companies such as Agnico Eagle, Barrick, Wheaton Precious Metals, and Franco-Nevada saw their stocks rise between 3% and 4.5%, following a nearly 6% surge in bullion prices after two significant declines. The energy sector also strengthened, with shares of Canadian Natural, Suncor, Imperial Oil, and Cenovus increasing by 1.1% to 2%. This stability was partially attributed to a pause in the recent decline of crude prices, alongside diminishing geopolitical risks due to easing US-Iran tensions. Meanwhile, investors continued to monitor the earnings forecasts, with results expected from Suncor Energy, Constellation Software, BCE, Saputo, and Telus later in the week.
