Lower U.S. Producer Prices Reduce Federal Reserve Rate Hike Fears to Lift TSX
The S&P/TSX composite index climbed 124.98 points to 34,004.22 on April 15, 2026. The advance was driven by a rotation toward growth assets, specifically technology stocks, as investor confidence in equities increased. This shift in sentiment followed a decrease in fears of additional Federal Reserve rate hikes. March producer price inflation increased less than expected, reducing concerns about persistent price pressures in the U.S. economy.
