Line chart of the TSX Composite and the S&P 500, both rebased to 100 on September 4, through October 2, 2026.

The TSX has lagged a roughly flat S&P 500 since September 4, which reflects the Canadian bond market pricing a more hawkish Bank of Canada than bank economists forecast. Canadian two-year yields already match the most hawkish bank forecast for 2027. The data end on October 2 because October 5 closing levels were not confirmed at publication.
