The others declined. Toronto-Dominion Bank (TD, +4.3%) was the largest point contributor in the sector through the month. Bank of Montreal (BMO, -5.2%) was the largest point detractor as U.S. costs weighed on the company s Q3F17 results. The Energy sector saw 42 of its 50 constituents fall through the month, while the remainder rose. Suncor Energy Inc. (SU, -3.8%) was the largest point detractor in August. Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ, +0.9%) was one of the few bright spots in the Canadian energy sector (and its biggest point contributor) in a month when WTI crude oil prices closed below US$50/bbl each day. Of the Materials sector s 56 constituents, 37 rose while the remaining 19 declined. Franco-Nevada (FNV, +13.1%) led the Materials sector in point contribution. The company said it expects to hit the higher end of its F17 guidance range. Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. (POT, -2.6%) was the biggest point laggard in the sector, the shares slumping steadily through August on little news. 17 of the sector s 26 constituents gained through the month, while the other 9 posted declines. Canadian National Railway Co. (CNR, +2.7%) was the sector s largest point contributor. CAE (CAE, -2.5%) dragged most heavily on the subindex, the stock recovering some of its losses at quarter-end following an analyst upgrade. The Consumer Discretionary sector saw 16 of its 21 constituents gain through the month of August, while the remaining 5 fell. Great Canadian Gaming Corp. (GC, +40%) was the sector s largest point contributor, rallying after winning a contract to operate three gaming facilities in the Greater Toronto Area. Cineplex Inc.

The Information Technology sector saw 9 of its 12 constituents fall, while the remaining 3 rose. The sector posted a monthly gain because the point contribution from the three performance leaders more than offset losses from the nine laggards. The sector s biggest point contributor, Shopify Inc. (SHOP, +20%), popped in early August as Q2F17 revenue beat estimates and the company raised its F17 guidance. The Utilities sector saw 9 of its 15 constituents advance through the month, while the other 6 declined. Emera (EMA, +3.4%) added the most points to the sector during the month of August, reporting solid Q2F17 results.
