On Tuesday, the spot price of gold surged to a record high of $2,141. As the commodity shone, American stocks and Bitcoin faded on a downbeat day. In Canada, the TSX held its own, giving up five points as sectors were mixed. Energy was the only sector that showed true muscle, while tech and real estate lagged the most. It was fitting that the most dramatic moves came from minerals as the PDAC conference, the biggest minerals convention in Canada, continued in Toronto.

The session was worse on Wall Street where tech led those markets down. The Nasdaq closed -1.65% while the Dow and S&P shed more than 1%.
