Global Markets
Canadian Markets
Canada’s TSX dropped as sharp pullbacks in precious metals and energy prices weighed heavily on the market. Silver led the decline, triggering a broader sell-off in hard assets as investors unwound defensive positions that had been built up amid earlier geopolitical tensions. The retreat followed signs of easing global risk, with spot gold slipping from a near one-week high and oil prices falling after the United States and Iran agreed to hold talks. Sentiment was further supported by reports of a positive phone call between U.S. and Chinese leaders, reducing near-term geopolitical anxiety and pressuring commodity prices.
The Bank of Canada struck a cautious tone on monetary policy and growth, with Governor Tiff Macklem warning that Canada’s economic restructuring, driven by demographic shifts, productivity challenges, and changes in global trade will take years to fully play out. He cautioned that cutting interest rates too aggressively while the economy is still adjusting could reignite inflation, underscoring the central bank’s preference for patience despite slowing growth signals.
American Markets
American stocks declined across the board as investors digested the implications of Alphabet’s strong quarterly results alongside its aggressive AI-related capital spending plans, which raised concerns about margin pressure and return on investment. Market focus also turned to Amazon’s earnings, due after the close, as investors looked for confirmation that cloud and retail demand remain resilient. Goldman Sachs noted that hedge funds were hit by the recent AI-driven sell-off, highlighting increased volatility and crowded positioning in large-cap technology names.
European Markets
European markets also moved lower as investors weighed mixed earnings reports from Shell and BNP Paribas. The European Central Bank kept interest rates unchanged, downplaying the recent dip in inflation and reinforcing its data-dependent stance. While corporate outlook commentary has shown signs of improvement, overall European earnings are still expected to decline, keeping risk plays in check.
In the UK, stocks fell after data showed British firms’ wage growth expectations cooled slightly, according to a Bank of England survey. The Bank of England voted narrowly to hold rates steady, but signaled that rate reductions could be approaching, reinforcing expectations of an eventual shift toward policy easing as inflation pressures gradually ease and economic momentum softens.
