Stock Market Today

  • TSX jumps 110 points on tech, materials; U.S. chipmakers weigh on Nasdaq
    July 2, 2026, 5:21 PM EDT. Canada's S&P/TSX composite added 109.68 points to 34,966.67 on gains in technology and basic materials. Trade talks on the Canada-U.S.-Mexico Agreement (CUSMA) came into focus. Analyst Brianne Gardner pointed to potential in energy and defense if trade ties are modernized. Higher gold, up to US$4,125.70 an ounce, lifted the materials segment. In the U.S., markets were mixed: Dow was at a record, S&P 500 stayed flat, while the Nasdaq slid as chipmakers like Micron dropped 5.5% and Nvidia slipped 1.4% on AI growth uncertainties. U.S. employers added 57,000 jobs in June, missing forecasts. That could take pressure off the Fed as oil prices moved around.
