标准普尔/多伦多证券交易所综合指数周五下跌0.3%,收于22308点,扭转了早盘涨幅,并从当天早些时候创下的22443点的近期历史高点回落,能源和科技板块对该指数施加了下行压力。由于对美联储持续高利率的担忧,油价下跌,导致能源行业平均下跌1.2%。同样,对利率变化敏感的科技板块,权重股Shopify和Constellation Software分别下跌5.6%和2.6%。此外,太阳人寿12个季度来首次对核心利润预期感到失望,导致其股价下跌6.7%。在经济方面,加拿大4月份增加了9万个工作岗位,失业率保持在6.1%不变。尽管当天石油基准下跌,但石油和黄金价格均录得周涨幅,支撑了多伦多证券交易所1.6%的强劲周表现。
The S&P/TSX Composite index declined by 0.3% to close at 22,308 on Friday, reversing early session gains and stepping back from a recent record high of 22,443 reached earlier in the day, with the energy and tech sectors exerting downward pressure on the index. Oil prices retreated due to concerns about sustained high interest rates by the US Fed, leading to a 1.2% average decline in the energy sector. Similarly, the tech sector, sensitive to interest rate changes, witnessed heavyweight equities Shopify and Constellation Software decline by 5.6% and 2.6%, respectively. Additionally, Sun Life also disappointed with core profit estimates for the first time in 12 quarters, resulting in a 6.7% decrease in its shares. On the economic front, Canada added 90,000 jobs in April, maintaining an unchanged unemployment rate of 6.1%. Despite the decline in oil benchmarks on the day, both oil and gold prices recorded weekly gains, supporting the TSX's robust 1.6% weekly performance.
