TORONTO, March 1 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index jumped at the open on Wednesday, in a broad move led by financial and energy stocks as investors focused on growing chances of a U.S. interest rate hike this month and awaited a Bank of Canada rate decision.
The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index .GSPTSE was up 132.28 points, or 0.86 percent, at 15,531.52 shortly after the open.
