TSX VENTURE EXCHANGE

摘要

Two days in the red were curbed by three days in the black for the S&P/TSX Venture composite index over the Aug 23-27 trading week, leaving the board up 9.23 points at 1,488.85. The overall gain kept the Venture board on its sustained ascent, which it initiated in early July at below 1,350. Nevertheless, the summer doldrums were still apparent in the moderate daily trading volumes, which averaged 88 million. And the bears still greatly outweighed the board's bulls: 152 Venture-listed companies fell to new 52-week lows over the week while just 45 climbed to new highs.
