Resource shares drove a week in which Canadian rate markets signalled economic slack. Oil and gold carried Thursday, with December WTI settling at US$96.50 and December gold at US$4,170.10, while Canada lost 68,000 jobs in September. The 35,000 level held on a closing basis throughout the window, with the lowest close at 35,041.86 on October 7. September CPI on Monday is the next test.
