Special Announcement<\/u><\/strong>
In order to compensate for the Market Call Tonight show that is not airing anymore, we\u2019re introducing Stockchase Research Opinions & Top Picks that will be published on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Stockchase editor Michael O\u2019Reilly will research institutional experts ratings and analysis and pick 3 Top Picks among the interesting ideas. We also started publishing Allan Tong\u2019s Ideas among the regular stock opinions on Tuesdays and looking to add even more Top Picks on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Those new picks could be available to everyone first but later only to Premium members.<\/p>\n

Wednesday saw stocks rise…<\/h3>\n

Stocks rise on both sides of the border for different reasons. The TSX jumped 1.13% after positive earnings from Shopify, soaring 7% after blowing away Q2 estimates with a 97% revenue<\/a> increase as brick-and-mortar stores fled online.<\/p>\n

At one point in the session, Shopify<\/a> leapt 12.5%. Another large-cap, Enbridge<\/a>, also pleased Bay Street by matching earnings<\/a>. ENB-T rallied 3%. There was green across the screen except in materials, reversing direction from recent days. Despite that, gold rose 0.5% as did oil.<\/p>\n

Gold continued to rally because the U.S. Fed<\/a> announced it would keep rates historically low, even though lawmakers in Washington continue to wrangle over the next aid package and at least four southern and western American states reported one-day records for COVID-19 deaths. Also, Washington was grilling the FANG<\/a> CEOs past the closing bell. Nevertheless, optimism reigned as the Dow rallied 0.62%, though the S&P and Nasdaq both soared by 1.25% and 1.35% respectively. Big gainers included AMD<\/a>, jumping 12.54% after beating<\/a> its Q2, and Kodak by a whopping 318%. <\/p>\n

Yes, Kodak, the former camera giant, is transforming<\/a> into a pharma-chemical company with a major cash injection from Washington.<\/p>\n
