Both traditional oil and gas stocks as well as Canada's mining and metals sector have benefited from a recent surge of investor interest in energy, new data from the Toronto Stock Exchange shows.
The 2023 TSX 30 list, released by the exchange on Tuesday, is a ranking of the 30 top-performing stocks over a three-year period, based on dividend-adjusted share price performance.
This year's ranking is heavily dominated by the oil and gas sector, which make up 50 per cent of the list. In the number one spot is Calgary-based Paramount Resources Ltd., which saw its share price increase by 1,913 per cent over a three-year period.
Calgary-based NuVista Energy Ltd., another oil and gas exploration and production company, came in second with a share price appreciation of 1,279 per cent.
