Line chart tracking the TSX Composite's daily close from June 22 to July 9, 2026, showing a round trip through two similar-sized single-day moves, closing near 35,171.67.

The TSX Composite's two-week path shows a market reversing itself almost as quickly as it moved. A geopolitical escalation earlier in the week had triggered a synchronized selloff across equities, oil, and gold, but by Thursday afternoon most of those declines had already unwound. Notably, the Government of Canada 10-year yield did not follow the same pattern, holding steady while stocks and commodities round-tripped. That divergence suggests bond investors read the underlying risk differently than equity and commodity markets did.
