周一，标准普尔/多伦多证交所综合指数略高于23560点的平线，在第四个交易日宽松地延续了其创纪录的势头，因为金融板块的上涨抵消了能源和材料板块的下跌。据英国《金融时报》采访，加拿大央行行长蒂夫·麦克勒姆暗示，由于对劳动力市场和油价潜在下跌的担忧，自6月以来已连续三次降息25个基点，因此有可能加快降息。金融股受益，道明银行、布鲁克菲尔德、丰业银行和蒙特利尔银行均上涨0.3%以上。然而，尽管石油和黄金价格上涨，但森科尔（-0.7%）、Agnico（-0.4%）、巴里克黄金（-0.5%）和加拿大天然气（0.4%）等主要大宗商品生产商表现不佳。投资者保持谨慎，因为市场正在为美联储预期的降息做准备，降息50个基点的可能性越来越大，目前已超过60%。
The S&P/TSX Composite Index hovered slightly above the flatline at 23,560 on Monday, loosely extending its record-breaking momentum for a fourth session, as gains in the financial sector offset losses in energy and materials. Bank of Canada Governor Tiff Macklem hinted at the possibility of accelerating rate cuts due to concerns over the labor market and potential declines in oil prices, following three consecutive quarter-point reductions since June, according to a Financial Times interview. Financial stocks benefited, with TD Bank, Brookfield, Scotiabank, and BMO all gaining over 0.3%. However, despite rising oil and gold prices, major commodity producers like Suncor (-0.7%), Agnico (-0.4%), Barrick Gold (-0.5%), and Canadian Natural (-0.4%) underperformed. Investor caution persisted as markets braced for the US Federal Reserve's anticipated rate cut, with rising odds of a 50bps reduction, now standing above 60%.
