Whiteside discussed bullish technical setups across major TSX ETFs and reviewed several heavily traded Canadian stocks, including BlackBerry, Hive Digital, and Brookfield.

Stephen Whiteside’s weekend market update highlights continued strength in major North American equity markets despite growing economic and credit-market concerns. The NASDAQ and semiconductor sector led gains in May, while small- and mid-cap stocks outperformed large caps.
