Canada broke to two-year lows this week and now the long term trend line has been broken. From a technical perspective, this is a very important signal. Previous weekly pushes down did not close the week below the trend line. This week this is in jeopardy at the time of writing.
Canadian investors should also note that this will be the lowest close in two years. The chart in the bottom shows the Canadian market underperforming the US market as well.
Good trading,
