TORONTO, Jan 11 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index barely rose early on Wednesday, as higher oil prices helped boost energy stocks while gold miners and other materials stocks weighed and investors awaited a news conference from U.S. President-elect Donald Trump.
The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index .GSPTSE was up 9.25 points, or 0.06 percent, at 15,435.53 shortly after the open.
