The TSX Composite added another 122 points Wednesday to a fourth consecutive record near 36,598, but the sector driving the gain changed entirely from a day earlier. Gold led all twelve TSX subgroups, up 1.4%, as a cooler US inflation reading made the non-yielding metal more attractive, followed by materials and financials, while real estate, technology, and telecom lagged. Energy, which powered Tuesday's record, was absent from both ends of Wednesday's leaderboard, a rotation tied to the same disinflation story moving bond yields and gold together.
