Fears of a recession depressed crude oil prices and in turn pressured markets on Wednesday. WTI sank 4% to $105 and WCS lost 3.8% to slip to $87. That pushed the TSX down by 1.13% as consumer stamples also weighed on the index, though utilities did well.
Toronto gainers included Kinaxis by 4.09%, Shopify 3.49% Transalta 2.81% and Boralex by 2.73%. Losers included Baytex at -12%, Teck Resources -9.55%, Meg Energy -9.5%, CNQ -5.09% and Suncor -5.22%. It didn’t help that the last inflation number of 7.7% was the highest in Canada since 1983.
Wall Street fluttered between the green and red, but closed modestly down with all three major indices surrendering around 0.15%. Gainers included Netflix up 4.87%, Moderna 4.74%, and Crown Castle 4.17%. Losers included Freeport-McMoRan at -7.93%, Marathon Oil -7.23% and ConocoPhillips -6.06%. Also sinking was the U.S. 10-year yield to 3.15% and Bitcoin by 4.75% to nearly dip below $20,000.
