Bar chart showing the TSX's point decline below its record close over three consecutive trading sessions in late August 2026.

The TSX has fallen for three straight sessions since Tuesday's record close of 36,957.63, with the drawdown widening each day for a different reason. Wednesday's decline followed a hot US inflation print that hit gold miners, Thursday's followed a rebound in oil prices, and Friday's followed Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh's hawkish Jackson Hole remarks. The pattern suggests the TSX is currently more sensitive to day-to-day US monetary policy signals than to domestic data, even a strong second-quarter GDP report released that same Friday morning.
