Market Recap: December 5, 2025
For the week ending December 5th......
Canada’s TSX finished the week virtually flat, slipping about 0.1%. Tech stocks were the big drag, while energy names got a boost from oil rising & banks reporting good earnings, beating expectations.
South of the border, markets bounced back after Thanksgiving. The S&P 500 gained 0.3%. Small caps led the way. Optimism over a potential Fed rate cut on Wednesday and easing inflation fueled the rally.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns about your investments or any other financial matter, please reach out anytime.
