TSX higher as oil prices spike after U.S. inventory report

Toronto Star -- The Toronto stock market pushed higher Wednesday morning, helped along by a sharp rise in oil prices following the release of the latest crude inventory levels in the U.S

The S&P/TSX composite index advanced 63 points to 11,981.7.

The TSX has been lower all week following a sharp three per cent gain last week, finally surpassing the level where it started the year, as investors responded to higher commodity prices and a slew of positive bank earnings.

Analysts said the back and forth action could be a factor in markets for some time.

“It’s been this way for six months and it’s probably going to continue this way for a number of months to come and that is that we are in a traders’ market,” said Gareth Watson, director Canadian Equities Portfolio Advisory Group at ScotiaMcLeod.

supply and demand has nothing to do with the price of oil and gas unless the surplus goes down. If the surplus goes up the price still goes up.

This is old news and its pushed by the Obama Admin, not big oil, as they would have you believe. This entire W/H is about acquiring power over the people and its old history as most historians will attested.

It would seem that we would be very interested in developing our own sources of fuel to help our own country. Not the case yet, at least.

It's the same thing every week.

No matter what happens it will be an excuse to raise gas prices.

They're making all that money from our wallets.. End the speculation maddness. If they buy the oil, they have to take physical delivery of it.

They are pushing for another recession. Gas went up 10 cents a liter here on Monday or over $4.00 a gallon. Greed.
