In Toronto, tech and materials gained well above 1% while financials lagged and energy gave back some of its recent gains. Tech darling <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/LSPD-T\">Lightspeed<\/a> shot up 8.62% as a rash of gold stocks, including <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/AR-T\">Argonaut<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/TGZ-T\">Teranga<\/a> jumped 7.39% and 5.39% respectively. In other words, gold continues to shine.<\/p>\n<p>The threat of war continues to dominate headlines, but it doesn&#8217;t appear to concern American investors, at least not yet. Wall Street is still basking in the imminent signing of the phase one trade deal between America and China. Chipmakers dominated trading in New York, with <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/MU-Q\">Micron<\/a> gaining 8.78% and <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/MCHP-Q\">Microchip Technology<\/a> up 6.71%. But the stock that stole the show Tuesday was <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/TSLA-Q\">Tesla<\/a>, after controversial CEO <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2020\/01\/07\/elon-musk-dancing-at-teslas-gigafactory-in-china.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Elon Musk<\/a> danced at the unveiling of his new Gigafactory factory in Shanghai. Musk had a lot of reason to rejoice. His Tesla has rocketed nearly 47% in the past 12 months after nosediving in early 2019 only to double since then. Tesla rallied 3.88% on Tuesday to make a new all-time high.
