Supported by metal prices, Canada’s main stock index rose on Monday as traders look forward to this week’s domestic inflation data. The energy market led the leaders on the TSX while health care and utilities losses capped gains. Consumer price index data due this week could offer some insight on the Bank of Canada’s next move at its policy meeting next month.

US markets were split as Wall Street awaits major earnings reports this week. The NASDAQ rose on support from the tech sector, such as AI heavyweight Nvidia’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) quarterly earnings coming this week. Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) stock rallied after a media report stated that the incoming President is working on ways to ease regulation on self-driving vehicles.
