Canada Market Round-Up
The S&P/TSX Composite Index (TSX: ^TSX) ended the week of February 27, 2026, on a strong note, climbing 522.48 points, or 1.55%, to settle at 34,339.99. The advance reflected renewed investor buying interest and improving market sentiment. Sector performance was mixed, with notable strength in energy, industrials, consumer non-cyclicals, financials, and consumer cyclicals, which collectively supported the upward move.

Immediate resistance is positioned near the 35,000 mark; a decisive breakout above this level may open the door for further upside. On the downside, initial support is seen around 33,800. The weekly RSI at 77.20 signals strong bullish momentum but also highlights increasingly overbought conditions.
