Stocks reacted calmly to the latest exchange in the simmering trade war between the U.S. and China. The dollar retreated and oil gained. The S&P 500 Index rose at the start of trading Tuesday, led by energy and technology shares, even after Beijing responded to President Donald Trump's announcement of fresh levies by saying it will impose tariffs on $60 billion of U.S. goods starting this month. The tit-for-tat exchange represents an escalation of the protectionist dispute, although it will be months before the levies hit levels some investors have been preparing for. Currently, the TSX is up 0.14% and the DOW is up 0.31%. EURCAD is down 0.24% trading between 1.5195 and 1.5260. GBPCAD is down 0.27% trading between 1.7081 and 1.7172. JPYCAD is down 0.95% trading between 0.01157 and 0.01169. Gold is up 0.36% trading between $1,195 and $1,203USD/oz., silver is up 0.33% trading between $14.07 and $14.23USD/oz., while oil is up 2.05% trading between $68.52 and $70.40.
