Celestica led all TSX movers Tuesday, jumping 11.1% on a broad U.S. semiconductor sector rally, a catalyst distinct from the Iran ceasefire headlines that drove the session's mining stocks. Gold miners ranked among the day's other top performers, with Wheaton Precious Metals up 6.7% and Barrick Gold up 4.6% as commodity prices rose. Energy stocks advanced too on elevated oil prices, but by smaller margins than the gold-linked names, underscoring how differently individual sectors responded to the same day's news.
