Globe/wire say TSX adds 112 points for new record high

2026-01-16 09:29 ET - In the News

The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday edition that Canada's main stock index rose to another record high on Thursday, with industrial and financial shares among the leading gainers. A Reuters dispatch to The Globe says the S&P/TSX Composite Index ended up 112.45 points at 33,028.92, moving past Wednesday's record closing high. U.S. stocks also rose as Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs shares shot up after upbeat quarterly results, while technology shares climbed after chipmaker TSMC's blockbuster results. "There's broader participation in today's move," said Bipan Rai at BMO Global Asset Management. "Certainly, you combine that with the outlook for metals ... it does feel like this year should be constructive for the TSX." Record highs for the price of gold and silver on geopolitical uncertainty have helped underpin the materials sector in January. The sector has added 14.1 per cent this month after nearly doubling in 2025. Among the standouts on Thursday was the industrials sector. It posted a gain of 1.42 per cent, led by a 7.17-per-cent jump in Bombardier shares after the business aircraft maker announced a new $100-million (U.S.) manufacturing centre in Dorval, Que. The energy sector was a drag, however.
