TSX Eyes Gains as Trump-Xi Summit Looms and Oil Steadies Near $95

Canadian Money Brief · Monday, May 11, 2026 Canadian equities are set for a cautious but constructive open this Monday as investors balance a packed macro calendar against an energy sector still reeling from one of its most volatile weeks in recent memory. TSX at a Glance The S&P/TSX Composite closed Friday at 34,077.76 , up 221 points (+0.65%) to cap a week dominated by whipsaw oil moves and a fragile Middle East ceasefire. The energy sector has led TSX gains over the past seven days — up roughly 5% — even as WTI crude fell about 7% on the week, settling near $95.42 per barrel . That apparent contradiction reflects Canadian producers' longer-term optimism on supply tightness rather than any single day's price swing. For the year, the TSX is up approximately 35%, outpacing most major global benchmarks. The Big Story: Trump Heads to Beijing All eyes this week will be on Washington and Beijing.

Your daily horoscope: November 23, 2024

 


HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

You will accomplish remarkable things over the coming year and there will be times when you amaze not just other people but also yourself. Keep telling yourself there is nothing you cannot achieve, and do something to prove it each and every day.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

A snatch of gossip that you overhear this weekend could cause you some anxiety but that’s what you get for listening in on other people’s conversations. Most likely what is said is not about you at all, so don’t take it personally.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

Someone in a position of authority could give you a hard time over the next 48 hours but they cannot hurt you in any tangible way so treat what they say and do as a bit of a joke. Real leaders don’t need to belittle other people.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

There will be times this weekend when it seems as if everyone wants to do the one thing that you do not. You don’t have the power to change their plans but neither do they have the power to demand that you change yours, so do your own thing.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

Only do what you enjoy this weekend. The more friends and family members try to get you involved in games and pursuits that hold no interest for you the more you must resist. Don’t be afraid to be more assertive than usual.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

If an opportunity comes your way you must take it without hesitation. You may not be sure it is the right thing for you but if you give it a miss and then find out how much fun it would have been you won’t be a happy Leo.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

There may be times over the next 48 hours when it is clear that you are no longer master of your fate but this is only a passing phase, so don’t get worked up about it. Do what others expect of you to the best of your ability.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

You will learn something this weekend that certain people would rather you did not know about. It will give you an advantage when negotiating, especially at work, but don’t make too big a deal of it or you could create some powerful enemies.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

The sun’s position in the main financial area of your chart means you are determined to get your share of the good things in life but it also means you must follow the rules. You don’t need to use underhand methods to get what it is you desire.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

By all means start something new this weekend but make sure it is in harmony with your highest ideals. Making money is acceptable but you must not make getting rich your one and only aim. Your vision must be both wider and deeper than that.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

The most important thing this weekend is that you clarify in your own mind what it is you want to say to other people before you actually open your mouth. Then stand in front of a mirror and practice your speech until it is word perfect.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

It may be obvious to you that a friend or loved one is in need of assistance but if you are smart you will get their permission before diving into their personal affairs. You may discover that on this occasion they prefer to suffer alone.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

You cannot avoid some sort of battle on the work front this weekend but you can make things easier for yourself by refusing to let your emotions run away with you. Yes, some people can be incredibly annoying, but why should you suffer for it?
