Investing.com -- Canada’s main stock index, the S&P/TSX Composite Index, tracked Wall Street lower as US Treasury yields continued near 5%. 

Investors digested the news that the U.S. economy grew faster than expected in the third quarter, once more defying expectations, and megacaps continued to pressure indices after mixed earnings. 

Falling crude prices also pressured the commodity-heavy Canadian index, as tensions in the Middle East de-escalated.
