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

Canadian Markets<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Canada\u2019s stock market edged higher, led by gains in gold prices<\/strong> flowing into strength in mining stocks<\/strong>, which helped support the TSX<\/strong>. Canadian investors remain cautious ahead of the August 1 deadline<\/strong> for potential new tariff implementations<\/strong>, which could impact key trade sectors, as the Canadian Prime Minister asserts he will only agree on a deal that benefits Canada.<\/p>\n

American Markets<\/strong><\/h3>\n

US stocks traded mostly lower<\/strong> as investors digested a wave of earnings reports from top companies.<\/p>\n

General Motors (GM)<\/a> reported better-than-expected Q2 earnings and reaffirmed its full-year guidance, despite ongoing pressure from the\u00a025% auto tariffs on imported vehicles and parts. The company maintained its earlier estimate of a $4\u2013$5 billion impact from tariffs and did not revise that outlook. However, shares fell 6% following the report, as investor concerns linger over tariff-related headwinds and broader trade uncertainty.<\/p>\n

Google (Alphabet)<\/strong> is scheduled to release its earnings tomorrow<\/strong>, adding to the week\u2019s high-stakes tech reporting.<\/p>\n

European Markets<\/strong><\/h3>\n

European markets<\/strong> fell sharply amid concerns that second-quarter corporate profits<\/strong> across the region will decline by an estimated 0.3%<\/strong>. Adding to the bearish tone, Nokia<\/strong> slashed its 2025 profit guidance<\/strong>, citing headwinds from new tariffs<\/strong> and a weaker U.S. dollar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

UK stocks<\/strong> reached a new record high<\/strong>, driven by gains in copper stocks<\/strong>. However, optimism was tempered by rising concerns over the UK\u2019s public debt servicing costs<\/strong>, which are increasing due to higher interest payments.<\/p>\n
