Six major Canadian-relevant assets diverged Monday: oil and the TSX Composite advanced while the Canadian dollar stayed essentially flat near 71.7 US cents even as government bond yields climbed. The Government of Canada 10-year yield reached a fresh multi-month high of 3.68%, and the TSX set an intraday record, this time led by energy rather than gold miners. Gold itself barely moved, holding near its highest level since early June rather than reversing to offset oil's advance.
