“Today you’ve got the energy stocks up, even though the price of oil is flat,” said Norman Levine, managing director of Portfolio Management Corp. in Toronto. The Toronto Stock Exchange’s S&P/TSX composite index advanced 99.76 points to 16,067.48, with oil and gas company stocks up more than two per cent. “The price of oil has already gone up quite a bit. The Dow Jones industrial average surged 331.67 points to 24,272.35 and the S&P 500 index added 21.51 points to 2,647.58.
