You might want to include the Dow Jones Utility average in you recap of charts. It looks like it hit an all time high. I was scanning T & VZ and those stocks each made 10 year highs. It's all about interest rates and low yields. Investors are reaching for yield driving the utility index and bell whether dividend payers to multi year highs.

MintChip, the digital cash platform started by the Royal Canadian Mint and acquired earlier this year by Toronto financial technology startup nanoPay, will be available to consumers starting today.

All Canadians are now able to download and use the MintChip app to send and receive digital cash between family and friends for free.

The digital cash is also being accepted by select merchants in Toronto's Liberty Village neighbourhood until Labour Day.

MintChip was founded in 2012 by the Royal Canadian Mint as a secure way to send and spend money.

Like cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, it is an encrypted system that processes payments instantaneously, therefore removing the need for a third party to process or settle the transaction.

This results in lower fees for merchants.
