Toronto Stock Exchange week ahead: Hormuz turmoil raises oil-shock risk for TSX as March begins

Toronto, March 1, 2026, 01:39 EST — Market is shut for the day Bay Street is bracing for Monday’s open with oil back at the forefront.

Riyadh, March 1, 2026, 09:35 GMT+3 — Premarket. Saudi shares open the week under renewed pressure, rattled by U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran.

Shenzhen, March 1, 2026, 14:02 — The session has ended. China’s central bank will scrap its 20% risk-reserve requirement on FX forward contracts starting March 2, in a move designed to cool the yuan’s sharp gains as exporters warn of mounting pressure. “It means the PBOC is intervening as the yuan’s appreciation is too fast,” said Yuan Tao, analyst at Orient Futures. The currency has climbed over 7% since last April, with an increasing number of listed companies reporting exchange-rate related profit hits.

    July 1, 2026, 6:39 PM EDT. U.S. stock futures held steady late Wednesday after a choppy start to July. Dow Jones futures were down 0.1% with similar small moves in S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 futures.

The semiconductor sector saw heavy selling, dragging the VanEck Semiconductor ETF lower by 5.4% and sending Micron Technology and Sandisk down more than 10%. Market strategist Rob Anderson said the shift out of semis is part of a healthy bull market. Traders now watch for the June U.S. jobs report, with forecasts calling for a 115,000 job gain.
