周四,标准普尔/多伦多证交所综合指数上涨0.6%,收于28916点的历史新高,连续第七年创下历史新高,科技、金融和矿业股领涨,而投资者正在等待加拿大和美国的关键就业报告。Shopify领涨3.8%,Brookfield上涨2.1%,主要矿业股普遍上涨。在宏观方面,加拿大7月份的贸易逆差为49亿加元,比6月份修订后的60亿加元缺口窄,但略高于47.5亿加元的共识,这是四个月来的最小缺口。与此同时,8月份私营部门综合采购经理人指数从7月份的48.7降至48.4,这是今年第二强劲的指数,但仍预示着连续第九个月出现收缩。
The S&P/TSX Composite rose 0.6% to close at a record high of 28,916 on Thursday, extending its streak toward a seventh consecutive all-time high as tech, financials, and miners drove gains while investors awaited key employment reports in Canada and the US. Shopify led advances with a 3.8% jump, Brookfield added 2.1%, and major miners traded broadly higher. On the macro front, Canada posted a July trade deficit of C$4.9 billion, narrower than June’s revised C$6.0 billion shortfall but slightly above the C$4.75 billion consensus, marking the smallest gap in four months. Meanwhile, the private-sector composite PMI eased to 48.4 in August from 48.7 in July, the second-strongest reading this year yet still signaling a ninth straight month of contraction.
