The U.S. 10-year yield hit a 52-week high\u00a0of 4.663% as inflation worries persisted and drove down American stocks. The S&P closed Tuesday at -0.67%, the Nasdaq -0.84% or 220 points, and the Dow -0.65%. Hardest hit were influential tech stocks: Nvidia<\/a> -0.77%, Amazon<\/a> -2% and Cisco<\/a> -2.94%.

In Canada, a strong sell-off in materials, plus weakness in healthcare pushed the TSX down 0.27%. Silver tumbled nearly 5% to US$73.75, while gold slipped 1.75% to US$4,485. That said, seven sectors enjoyed gains, led by energy, though WTI declined 0.8% to US$107.75. Major movers on Bay Street: Enbridge<\/a> 2.75%, B2Gold<\/a> -5.48%, Thomson Reuters<\/a> 5.42%, Goeasy<\/a> 8.67% and Celestica<\/a> -5.93%. The key headline was that Canadian inflation rose\u00a0to 2.8%, thanks to soaring energy prices caused\u00a0by the US-Iran War. It’s the highest inflation print in two years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
