TORONTO – Canadian and U.S. stock markets made a turnaround Friday afternoon to end a rocky week on a more positive note, with Canada’s main stock index gaining almost 200 points and U.S. markets also rising. 

The uptick heading toward the bell was a “sigh of relief” after a volatile week that saw markets flip down, up and down again amid a constant flow of news about U.S. tariffs, said Kathrin Forrest, equity investment specialist at Capital Group.
