CANADA STOCKS-TSX opens lower as Trump's tariff announcement nears
Mar 31, 2025 7:01 AM

March 31 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index opened

lower on Monday, dragged by information technology stocks, as

investors shunned risky assets amid concerns that U.S. President

Donald Trump's upcoming tariffs will hurt the global economy.

At 9:31 a.m. ET (1431 GMT), the Toronto Stock Exchange's

S&P/TSX composite index was down 0.73% at 24,579.59

points.
