India, Nov. 9 -- Adding to the gains from Friday's session, Canadian stocks soared on Monday as market participants welcomed U.S. President Donald Trump's soft remarks on dealing with Iran, which brought down crude oil prices and tempered inflation concerns.

After opening higher than the previous week's close, today the benchmark S&P/TSX Composite Index traded firmly positive throughout the session before settling at 36,446.26, up by 657.17 points (or 1.84%).
