多伦多证券交易所午盘下跌200点,所有板块均走低

By

-- 多伦多证券交易所午盘下跌近200点,所有板块均收跌。 矿业和能源板块表现最差,分别下跌1.8%和1.3%。 据报道,周一早盘,伊朗声称用两枚导弹击中了一艘驶入霍尔木兹海峡的美国军舰,但美国中央司令部否认了这一说法。受此影响,油价在波动中走高。如果袭击事件属实,可能会打破两国之间的停火协议。 周一早盘,随着美元和收益率的上升,黄金价格走低,但这种贵金属的价格仍维持在过去一个月以来的窄幅区间内波动。 另据加拿大帝国商业银行(CIBC)报道,自2月28日伊朗冲突爆发以来,化肥和化工类股普遍表现优异,平均上涨约14%。相比之下,同期标普500指数上涨5%,多伦多证券交易所综合指数下跌1%。 尽管中东冲突持续扰乱贸易流通,但上周化肥和甲醇大宗商品市场相对平静。分析师哈米尔·帕特尔写道,美国化肥价格似乎已达到难以承受的水平,同时买家的兴趣也已基本转向夏季/秋季的库存需求,而非短期需求。

Update: Gold Falls as the Dollar and Yields Climb

(Updates prices.)Gold traded lower midafternoon Monday as the dollar and yields rose, forcing the precious metal below the tight range it has stuck within for the past month.Gold for June delivery was last seen down US$112.20 to US$4,533.20 per ounce, the lowest since March 27.The war on Iran has prompted some safe-haven demand for the metal, even as the higher oil prices that followed the start of the war on Iran is hiking inflation. This is raising concerns higher interest rates are on the way, which is bearish for the metal since it pays no interest."Gold remains supported by safe-haven demand as investors continue to watch the Middle East conflict, oil prices, and the yen. Any durable easing in the Strait of Hormuz would likely cool demand for defensive assets, but until shipping flows normalise, gold should remain sensitive to geopolitical headlines and shifts in real yields," Saxo Bank noted.The dollar rose, with the ICE dollar index last seen up 0.2.9 points to 98.45. Treasury yields were sharply higher, with the U.S. two-year note last seen paying 3.975%, up 8.3 basis points, while the yield on the 10-year note as up 7.0 points to 4.449%
