CANADA STOCKS-TSX futures rise ahead of domestic inflation data
May 26, 2025 10:43 AM

May 20 (Reuters) - Futures for Canada's main stock index

rose on Tuesday, as investors awaited updates on trade deals

ahead of domestic inflation data due later in the day.

June futures on the S&P/TSX index were up 0.3% at

6:13 a.m. ET (1013 GMT).

Investors will focus on the domestic consumer inflation

report scheduled for 8:30 am ET, just two weeks before the Bank

of Canada's next interest rate decision.

Canada's main stock index hit a record high on Friday,

logging a sixth consecutive weekly gain, as worries about a

global trade war eased after the U.S.-China tariff truce over

the weekend.

On Sunday, U.S. Vice President JD Vance discussed fair trade

policies with Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney in Rome,

Vance's office said in a statement, as the two nations try to

resolve a dispute over tariffs.

Later on Tuesday, finance leaders from the Group of Seven

industrialized democracies will meet in Canada. They will strive

for unity on non-tariff issues, but may have trouble reaching

consensus with a Trump administration intent on pushing allies

to serve U.S. interests.

In commodities, oil and gold prices fell on the day. Copper

prices in London were trading slightly lower.
