5 Top Weekly TSX Performers: Avalon Advanced Materials Up on Lithium Refinery Agreement
Last week's top-gaining stocks on the TSX were Avalon Advanced Materials, Augusta Gold, Kolibri Global, Pine Cliff and i3 Energy.
The S&P/TSX Composite Index (INDEXTSI:OSPTX) was trading at 21,890.56 early last Friday (April 8).
The index was higher on the back of gains in energy and materials stocks. Even though it incurred a weekly loss, finishing at 21,868.78, the TSX is up more than 3 percent year-to-date.
Looking over to metals, palladium rose about 11 percent on Friday as concerns over supply increased after the London Platinum and Palladium Market said it will block Russian refineries from selling the metal in the London market. The move is another measure against Russia due to the war in Ukraine.
Gold and silver were also on the rise on Friday, both heading for weekly gains despite a strong US dollar.
Last week, a number of companies saw their share prices increase. The five TSX-listed mining stocks that saw the biggest gains are as follows:
- Avalon Advanced Materials (TSX:AVL)
