Investing.com – The TSX rallied today, tracking the Nasdaq and S&P500 higher as tech stocks received a boost from Meta earnings and raised hopes for positive results from Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) and Alphabet (NASDAQ:GOOGL), due today after the closing bell. 

Markets also gained support from the US Federal Reserve’s muted 25 bps point hike yesterday, and comments that the “disinflationary process’’ has begun which may cause the central bank ot begin cutting rates later this year. , 

The commodity heavy Canadian index gained  some support from crude prices, as hopes for a Fed pivot take hold, and as the European Union’s ban on Russian refined products is set to take effect on Feb. 5.
