Canadian Market Modestly Higher Around Noon

(RTTNews) - The Canadian market is modestly higher around noon on Monday, led by gains in energy and technology sectors. A few stocks from the financial section are also up in positive territory.

Dye & Durham (DND.TO) is soaring nearly 13% on huge volumes. CCL Industries (CCL.B.TO) is climbing 6.3% and Teck Resources (TECK.B.TO) is surging 4.2%.

Stantec Inc (STN.TO), Cameco Corporation (CCO.TO), Constellation Software (CSU.TO), Imperial Oil (IMO.TO), Shopify Inc (SHOP.TO) and Thomson Reuters (TRI.TO) are gaining 1.2 to 3%.

AutoCanada (ACQ.TO) is down nearly 7%. Bombardier Inc (BBD.A.TO), Cargojet (CJT.TO), Rogers Communications (RCI.A.TO), Cogeco Communications (CCA.TO), Ag Growth Corporation (AFN.TO), Linamar Corporation (LNR.TO) and Franco-Nevada Corporation (FNV.TO) are down 1 to 3%.
