Canadian Markets<\/strong><\/p>\n

European Markets<\/strong><\/p>\n

European shares also faced downward pressure, largely influenced by a significant drop in shares of German technology giant SAP. Investors were closely analyzing critical inflation data emerging from the eurozone and its major economies, leading to increased caution in the market.
