周四,标准普尔/多伦多证交所综合指数上涨0.8%,收于25898点,连续第八个交易日上涨,创历史新高,此前矿业和金融业的强劲抵消了能源的疲软。与黄金相关的股票领涨:Agnico Eagle、Wheaton Precious Metals、Barrick Gold和Franco Nevada均上涨1.6%至2.9%,金价反弹。与此同时,加拿大皇家银行大盘股贡献了1.7%,支撑了更广泛的金融业势头。然而,能源权重股的大幅下跌限制了反弹的上行空间——加拿大自然资源公司、森科尔公司、帝国石油公司和Cenovus公司都在石油基准疲软的情况下下跌了1.1%至1.7%。在经济方面,4月份的房屋开工量从3月份的214205套跃升30%,至278606套,这表明住宅建设再次上升,尽管3月份的制造业销售额因初级金属、石油和煤炭产品行业的拖累而下降了1.4%。
The S&P/TSX Composite Index rose 0.8% to close at 25,898 on Thursday—its eighth consecutive session of gains and a fresh all-time high—after strength in mining and financials counterbalanced weakness in energy. Gold-related names spearheaded the advance: Agnico Eagle, Wheaton Precious Metals, Barrick Gold and Franco-Nevada each climbed between 1.6% and 2.9% as bullion prices rebounded. Meanwhile, mega-cap RBC contributed an additional 1.7%, underpinning broader financial-sector momentum. However, the rally’s upside was capped by steep declines among energy heavyweights—Canadian Natural Resources, Suncor, Imperial Oil and Cenovus all retreated between 1.1% and 1.7% amid softening oil benchmarks. On the economic front, April housing starts jumped 30% to 278,606 units from March’s 214,205, signalling a renewed upswing in residential construction, even as March manufacturing sales dipped 1.4%, dragged lower by the primary metals and petroleum-and-coal-products industries.
