Despite the disconnect from unemployment figures, particularly in the U.S., markets on both sides of the border rose Tuesday. PMI manufacturing data rose to 55.1 in August, Canada&#8217;s highest level since 24 months ago.<\/p>\n<p>Helping the TSX climb 0.79% was oil as the price of WCS leapt 4.75% and WTI by 0.84%. One of the biggest gainers was <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/4187\/WCP-T\">Whitecap Resources<\/a>, surging 6.61% after an analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/thefly.com\/landingPageNews.php?id=3154387&amp;headline=SPGYF-Whitecap-Resources-price-target-raised-to-C-from-C-at-National-Bank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">upgrade<\/a>. Tech was another strong sector in Toronto as <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/447\/ENGH-T\">Enghouse Systems<\/a> rose 7.86% and <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/5163\/KXS-T\">Kinaxis<\/a> 7.92%.<\/p>\n<p>Unsurprisingly, tech also lifted the Nasdaq, up 1.39% to close within a hair of 12,000 points. Tuesday was the 42nd closing high for the index so far in 2020 and 21.7% higher than its February peak. Fresh from a stock split, <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/4\/AAPL-Q\">Apple<\/a> popped nearly 4% after a report starting that the company was rolling out 75 millions <a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/video\/apple-prepares-75-million-5g-204639632.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iPhones<\/a> for its 5G launch later this year. Another tech juggernaut, <a href=\"https:\/\/stockchase.com\/company\/view\/6056\/ZM-Q\">Zoom Video<\/a>, rocekted nearly 41% after its Q2 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketwatch.com\/story\/zooms-big-earnings-report-sends-stock-toward-a-100-billion-plus-valuation-2020-09-01?siteid=yhoof2&amp;yptr=yahoo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a> stated that is generated as much revenue in a single quarter as it did for all of 2019. In contrast, the S&amp;P gained 0.75% and the Dow 0.76%.
