time.<\/p>\n<p data-async=\"\">Canada\u2019s main stock exchange has been outperforming the S&amp;P\/500 since the start of the year and \u201cthe net effect of currency changes has been, and should continue to be, beneficial for the S&amp;P\/TSX,\u201d said de Verteuil.<\/p>\n<p data-async=\"\">Gold is a big reason why.<\/p>\n<p>When the U.S. dollar falls, gold prices typically rise. In fact, this has happened 77 per cent of the time over the past 47 years, according to CIBC tracking.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. dollar slumped 2.3 per cent in the first week of March, and gold last week broke through US$3,000 an ounce for the first time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe reality is that the Canadian index has become the \u201chome\u201d for gold companies, whether they be explorers, producers or the royalty companies \u2013 and regardless of the location of their mines,\u201d de Verteuil wrote, adding that gold stocks currently make up almost 10 per cent of the index\u2019s market capitalization.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA weaker U.S. dollar has helped support gold prices and a large proportion of the S&amp;P\/TSX market cap.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another reason is that the TSX as the main exchange of a trading nation is global in nature, with a fair proportion of revenues coming from outside the country. \u00a0Only 48 per cent of revenues on the index come from Canadian operations, said CIBC.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"js-widget-content article-content__widget-group article-content__widget-group--content-slot26 article-content__widget-group--newsletter-slot\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-widget__new-story-page fp-execsummary background--primary-light-gradient\" aria-labelledby=\"FinancialPostPosthaste8762208475855924298290617898762240\" data-account-id=\"b9d3df2fccd108b5eff3c44f573b2cd6\" data-aqa=\"widget-newsletter\" data-newsletter=\"single\" data-newsletter-component=\"\" data-target-list=\"FP_ExecSummary\" data-widget=\"newsletter\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-new-story-page-template\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-widget__header__new-story-page\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-widget__banner__new-story-page\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Posthaste\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/dcs-static.gprod.postmedia.digital\/18.3.1\/websites\/images\/newsletters\/icon-fp-posthaste.svg\"\/><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Posthaste<\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-widget__text__new-story-page\">Breaking business news, incisive views, must-reads and market signals.
