India, July 27 -- Canadian stocks advanced on Monday, extending the gains from Friday's session after a pause in the U.S.-Iran attacks over the weekend raised expectations of a diplomatic solution to the Middle East conflict.

After opening higher than the previous week's close, today the benchmark S&P/TSX Composite Index remained volatile throughout the session but gained momentum later before settling at 35,568.14, up by 199.04 points (or 0.56%).
