The bulls and the bears battled hard for supremacy throughout Tuesday trading on the Canadian Markets with the bulls eventually coming out on top of the big board and the bears winning the day once again over on the junior bourse. For the tale of the tape, the TSX Exchange added 0.46%, while the TSX Gold Index dropped 0.8% and the TSX Venture Exchange, Canada’s largest junior exploration bourse, lost 4.52% with the declining issuers outpacing the advancers by a 543 to 290 margin on volume of 169 million shares traded.
