Le,The junior board made it four winning days in a row but the big board equities got a little spooked during Halloween Friday trading on the Canadian markets.
There was more blood in the streets for the Canadian markets during Tuesday trading as the price of oil continued to slide. For the tale of the tape, the TSX Exchange fell 0.22%, while the TSX Gold Index was the lone winner by gaining 3.9% and the TSX Venture Exchange, Canada’s largest junior exploration bourse, plunged another 4.94% with the declining issuers swamping the advancers by a 705 to 240 margin on volume of 169 million shares traded.
It was yet another rough trading session for the resource-rich Canadian markets with the junior bourse once again taking the brunt of the pain.
