Chart comparing Monday's same-day price moves across seven assets, showing oil falling sharply while other assets held steadier.

The TSX opened about 0.2% higher near 35,471 Monday, led by technology and consumer discretionary shares rather than the energy sector that has driven most of this year's gains. Oil fell sharply in the same session while other assets held steadier, as markets absorbed a weekend pause in direct U.S.-Iran strikes. Iran-backed Houthi forces separately claimed attacks on Saudi Aramco facilities at Jizan and Yanbu, a claim neither Saudi Arabia nor Aramco confirmed, keeping the Red Sea route a live risk.
