delay u.s: The TSX ticker is shown in Toronto on May 10, 2013, according to The Toronto Star. Frank Gunn / THE CANADIAN PRESS Trump tweeted that he had agreed to delay U.S. tariff hikes on China and that trade talks with the country were in advanced stages. A positive day in the equity markets, most specifically driven by a bit more optimism around the potential for furthering negotiations between the US and China on trade, said Craig Fehr, Canadian markets strategist for Edward Jones. Trade uncertainty between the two countries has been a significant overhang to the markets in recent months. The S&P/TSX energy index led gains with a 0.58 per cent rise as part of the broad gains that also saw financials, industrials and telecoms climb. The announcement helped lift the S&P/TSX composite index up 44.02 points to close at 16,057.03. (news.financializer.com). As reported in the news.
