Buoyed by the news of COVID vaccines and multimillion-dollar deals, the S&P/TSX Composite Index Monday added 137.68 points or 0.85% and closed at 16,360.14. Industrials stocks were the biggest gainers.
The key Canadian index traded above its immediate support level of 5-day simple moving averages (SMAs) and above its crucial short-term support levels of 50-day, 100-day, and 200-day SMAs. However, it traded below its 10-day, 20-day and 30-day SMAs. The 14-day relative strength index floated in the neutral zone and tilted towards an oversold zone.
