📊 Domo +23% Biotech Leads

Good Morning Investors,

Treasury yields eased as Middle East tensions cooled and central bank caution helped take some pressure off rates, while the Fed’s view that banks can withstand significant losses reduced immediate systemic stress concerns. Lower yields generally help higher beta names, particularly those that are more sensitive to financing conditions and discount rate shifts.

Canada’s weakness appears more tied to commodities and resource exposure. Energy shipping flows and signs of oversupply in oil markets likely weighed on sentiment across venture and exploration names, helping explain why the TSX Venture materially underperformed despite the more stable U.S. backdrop.

Biotech and certain U.S. growth pockets are still holding up, but semiconductors, Canadian resource names, and commodity sensitive juniors remain vulnerable to headline driven volatility. With earnings and macro catalysts approaching.
