In case you missed it, here is this week’s resource big news roundup.
The TSX Composite dropped 42.37 points to open Friday’s session, pulling back from previous record highs. The descent on Friday followed a pair of unfortunate developments for Canadian cannabis provider Aurora Cannabis (NYSE:ACB,TSX:ACB), which announced it would be cutting 500 employees on Thursday. Chief Executive Officer Terry Booth has also announced he will step down. Four different analysts downgraded Aurora’s stock this week on the heels of the announcement. The company is expected to record as much as C$1 billion in goodwill writedowns and impairment charges in its fiscal second quarter.
The TSX Venture Exchange fell 0.9 points to open Friday at 577.10, with eight of the 12 TSX subgroups in the red. Utilities (up 0.5 percent), real-estate (up 0.4 percent) and gold (up 0.3 percent) lead the way with minimal gains. In the United States, stocks fell as worries regarding the coronavirus continued to dampen the market. The S&P 500 dropped 10.4 points to open Friday’s session at 3,335.38.
