Another day of gains has sent the Toronto Stock Exchange higher again today as the energy sector rallied again. The Fed’s ‘patient’ stance on US interest rates together with optimistic notes from Japan and Russia and some further rebounds in the oil price have increased risk-taking in the global markets.
