Global Markets<\/a><\/h2>\n

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

Canada\u2019s TSX Composite index\u00a0rose modestly on Tuesday, supported by gains in the energy sector as crude oil prices climbed nearly 2%.<\/p>\n

Investors are focused on the upcoming Bank of Canada (BoC) policy meeting scheduled for Wednesday. While inflation remains sticky in some segments, most economists now believe the BoC is more likely to hold interest rates steady, rather than cut them. The central bank is expected to adopt a cautious tone amid persistent uncertainties in global trade and growth, as well as the lack of a strong domestic disinflationary trend.<\/p>\n

\n

American Markets<\/h3>\n

U.S. stock markets saw gains across all major indices on Tuesday, buoyed by a weaker U.S. dollar and optimism around potential rate stabilization.<\/p>\n

However, global concerns were amplified after the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) revised its U.S. GDP forecast for 2025 downward to 1.6%, from a previous 2.2% estimate. The OECD attributed the downgrade to rising interest rates, global trade tensions, and supply chain vulnerabilities. It urged world governments to finalize new trade agreements to cushion economies from further deceleration.<\/p>\n

U.S. manufacturing activity shrank for the third consecutive month in May, according to ISM data, with supplier delivery times stretching to their longest in nearly three years. This signals mounting pressure from tariffs and potential shortages, especially in industrial inputs and electronics.<\/p>\n

\n

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

European markets opened lower on Tuesday following the OECD’s downward revision of global GDP growth to 2.9% for both 2025 and 2026, down from 3.3%. Initial declines were most pronounced in export-heavy sectors, including industrial goods and automotive. However, sentiment improved later in the trading session, and European indices closed in positive territory.<\/p>\n

Switzerland reported a surprising deflaionary trend, with consumer prices falling year-over-year. This increases the probability that the Swiss National Bank could return to negative interest rates.<\/p>\n

UK markets initially opened lower on Tuesday, dragged down by mining and materials stocks, from fears of slowing global demand and softer commodity prices.<\/p>\n

Despite the rough start, the FTSE 100 managed to close higher, helped by strength in energy, aerospace, and defense stocks. Confidence was supported by comments from Bank of England Governor Andrew Bailey, who reaffirmed the central bank’s “gradual and careful” approach to cutting interest rates amid rising uncertainty around global trade policy and economic projections.<\/p>\n
