Toronto, Jan 7 - Companies raised a record $60 billion on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) last year despite the global downturn.


The third biggest stock exchange in North America, the Toronto Stock Exchange is also the world's biggest energy market where more than 400 global oil and gas companies are traded.


The stock exchange raised $60.0 billion, surpassing the previous record of $47.6 billion set in 2007. The TSX executed trading volume of 118.5 billion, again exceeding the record of 109.2 billion set in 2008.

New York, Jan 8 - Major Wall Street stock indices have ended mostly higher amid gathering economic optimism.


A government report on Thursday showed that the pace of job losses continues to moderate.

Analysts from Morgan Stanley said that commercial real estate, widely feared as the other shoe to drop after the meltdown in the US residential property market, would not become a major impediment to economic growth.

Shares in the retail sector rose as major US chain stores raised forecasts or delivered earnings reports that beat expectations.
