Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - April 17, 2024) - The Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE" or "the Exchange") today announced market statistics for March 2024.

March 2024 Operating Statistics

• Trading volume of CSE listed securities totaled 1.1 billion shares;
• Trading value of CSE listed securities was $376 million;
• CSE issuers completed 91 financings that raised an aggregate $103 million; and
• The CSE welcomed listings from three new companies, including one fundamental change of an existing issuer, bringing total listed securities to 806 as at March 31, 2024.

"March was the Canadian Securities Exchange's strongest month so far this year for trading and financing activity," said Richard Carleton, CEO of the CSE. "This activity highlights new investor interest in the gold sector, driven by record price increases in the underlying commodity. In the meantime, we continue to be impressed by the resiliency of the small-cap investment community as they continue to deal with challenging conditions in the market."
