Contributing to the gains was a bullish call from Bank of America, which upgraded Canadian banks, prompting investors to rotate back into bank stocks in search of higher dividend yields amid broader market optimism.<\/p>\n<p><strong>American Markets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the U.S., stocks began the day trading mixed but gained momentum in the afternoon as investor sentiment turned more positive.

The UK released updated data which revealed higher industrial producer price inflation than previously estimated, according to revised figures from the Office for National Statistics (ONS).<\/p>\n<h3>Corporate News<\/h3>\n<p>Amazon.com Inc is reportedly considering another multibillion-dollar investment in AI firm Anthropic to deepen their strategic partnership and retain a lead
