周五,标准普尔/多伦多证交所综合指数徘徊在24700点的水平线以下,由于矿业巨头的压力抵消了科技、金融和能源行业的支持,停止了三天的连胜。与黄金挂钩的股票领跌。Agnico Eagle股价下跌近1%,金价大幅下跌,尽管在强劲的生产和较低的运营成本的支持下,其第一季度利润几乎翻了一番。Wheaton Precious、Barrick Gold和Franco Nevada同样下跌1.3%至1.9%。另一方面,Shopify、Brookfield和森科尔上涨0.7%至1.9%,有助于缓冲多伦多交易所的损失。与此同时,交易员们分析了相互矛盾的贸易战信号,有报道称中国可能会暂停对某些美国进口商品征收125%的关税,但这一说法很快被官方否认,尽管特朗普总统表示他的政府仍在与北京进行讨论。多伦多交易所预计每周上涨约2%。
The S&P/TSX Composite Index hovered below the flatline at the 24,700 mark on Friday, halting a three-day winning streak as pressure from mining giants offset support from the tech, financial and energy sectors. Bullion-linked equities led the decline. Agnico Eagle fell almost 1% as gold prices sharply retreated, despite nearly doubling its first-quarter profit on the back of robust production and lower operating costs. Wheaton Precious, Barrick Gold and Franco-Nevada likewise dropped between 1.3% and 1.9%. On the flip side, Shopify, Brookfield and Suncor added between 0.7% and 1.9%, helping to cushion losses on the Toronto exchange. Meanwhile, traders parsed conflicting trade-war signals with reports that China might suspend its 125% tariff on certain U.S. imports were swiftly rebutted by official denials, even as President Trump said his administration remained in discussions with Beijing. The Toronto exchange was set for a weekly advance of around 2%.
