  • Touched a new 52-week high, underscoring strong recent price momentum.

  • Canaccord Genuity reconfirmed a Buy rating, reinforcing positive analyst sentiment.

  • Built up provisions for potential credit losses as a prudent, though cautious, measure.
  • Asked staff to return to the office four days a week, part of its post-pandemic workplace strategy.
  • RBC Capital Markets issued various ratings on non-bank stocks (e.g., Regeneron, Bank of Nova Scotia), reflecting broader capital-markets activity.
