Snapshot chart of TSX Composite, WTI crude, and USD/CAD closing levels on August 20, 2026.

The TSX Composite closed down 0.10 percent Thursday, its lowest close since August 6, as a Big Five bank selloff offset gains in energy and gold-linked names. WTI crude rose to its highest close since July 24 after fresh US sanctions on Iran added to existing Strait of Hormuz supply concerns, while the Canadian dollar continued a two-week strengthening trend heading into that night's tariff deadline.
