Despite a split among indices, Canada’s main stock index rose on Monday, helped by sharp rise in resources-linked shares. A drop among the financial, industrials, tech and utilities markets offset gains made by the energy and mining sectors on the TSX.

Traders remain cautious as they anticipate a data-heavy week on Wall Street, with upcoming inflation reports being crucial for markets that are still uneasy after recent volatility.
