Futures Move Tentatively Up
SilverCrest, Teck in Focus
Futures for Canada's main stock index edged up on Monday, following a rise in oil prices after Saudi Arabia's new energy minister confirmed his country's commitment to crude supply cuts, led by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries

The Canadian dollar inched ahead 0.06 cents to 75.99 cents U.S. early Monday

The TSX Venture Exchange regained 2.25 points Friday to 588.51, but lost 0.85 points on the week, or 0.14%.
ON WALLSTREET
U.S. stocks were set to open slightly higher Monday amid increasing optimism around U.S.-China trade relations.
Futures for the Dow Jones Industrials gained 69.31 points, or 0.3%, early Monday to 26,797.46
Futures for the S&P 500 picked up 2.71 points, or 0.1%, at 2,978.71

China offered last week to increase purchases of U.S. agricultural products if the U.S. eased restrictions on telecom giant Huawei, Politico reported on Friday. China’s offer could also be contingent on the U.S. delaying higher tariffs on about $250 billion worth of Chinese imports
New data out of China showed that exports unexpectedly fell in August with a large contraction for shipments to the United States. The drop indicates further weakness in the world’s second largest economy and puts further pressure on Chinese lawmakers to announce new economic stimulus.

Oil prices gained 25 cents to $56.77 U.S. a barrel.
