March 14 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index opened
higher on Tuesday, boosted by gains in financial and technology
stocks, as an in-line reading of U.S. inflation data bolstered
hopes of smaller interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve.
At 9:30 a.m. ET (13:30 GMT), the Toronto Stock Exchange's
S&P/TSX composite index was up 157.32 points, or 0.8%,
at 19,746.22.
