India, Aug. 10 -- After a slightly weak start and a subsequent further drop, the Canadian market emerged into positive territory Tuesday morning, supported by strong gains in energy and technology sectors.

Communications, utilities and real estate stocks drifted lower, while stocks from the rest of the sectors turned in a mixed performance.

A lack of meaningful progress in Iran-U.S. talks and uncertainty over the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz rendered the mood cautious. Investors digested quarterly earnings updates and looked ahead to some crucial U.S. economic data due this week.
