The S&P/TSX Composite Index advanced 0.5% to close at 33,943 on Wednesday, rebounding as a strong rally in technology and steadiness in financials offset broad-based weakness in commodities. Shopify led gains with a 6% jump, while Celestica climbed 5.1% and CAE added 4.4%, collectively underpinning the tech-led recovery. The financial sector also lent support, with Bank of Montreal up 1.3% and TD Bank rising 0.8%, helping counter a 1.6% decline in Constellation Software.

Performance in precious metals was mixed: Wheaton Precious Metals advanced 1.5%, whereas Agnico Eagle slipped 0.7%. Elsewhere in materials, First Quantum gained 3% and Ivanhoe Mines rose 3.7%, providing additional resilience to the broader market. Despite ongoing infrastructure risks tied to tensions in the Middle East, the TSX continued to lean on its software and banking core, remaining on track with its record-setting trajectory into 2026.
