Canada’s main stock index finished in negative territory on Tuesday, weighed down by declines in commodity prices, while another sudden reversal for high-flying artificial-intelligence stocks sent Wall Street reeling. Ryan Bushell, CEO and portfolio manager at Newhaven Asset Management, said he also thinks the interest rate picture continues to be a concern for the market, following jobs data out of the U.S. last week. “The tech stocks sold off extremely hard on Friday, had a bounce yesterday and are giving back most or all of that bounce today,” he said. “Those are the ones that are higher risk and they’re…
