VANCOUVER, BC (September 14, 2011) Clearlease Financial Reports North American markets opened higher amid growing confidence that progress can be made on Greece’s debt crisis at a conference call later Wednesday involving the leaders of Greece, France and Germany.
The S&P/TSX composite index added 40 points to 12,245.4, with the health-care and consumer discretionary indices leading the way higher.
Wall Street markets also pushed higher. The Dow Jones gained 71.4 points to 11,177.3, the Nasdaq index was up 22.44 points at 2,554.59 and the S&P index added 2.4 points to 1,175.25.
The Canadian dollar lost 0.48 of a cent to 101 cents US as commodity prices stepped back and investors took in report on second-quarter capacity utilization, which fell slightly to 78.4 per cent in the second quarter from 79 per cent in the prior quarter.
New data on American retail sales also added to fears of another recession.
Consumers spent less last month on autos, clothing and furniture, leaving retail sales unchanged in August, the U.S. Commerce Department said. And, in addition to no growth in August, July was weaker than first thought, the department said.
The flat reading in August was a surprise given reports from retailers during the month that back-to-school shopping and auto sales appeared to have been strong compared with a year ago.
Other data from the U.S. showed companies paid the same amount for wholesale goods last month as a drop in energy prices offset higher food costs.
Falling commodities could serve to mitigate any rise on the Toronto Stock Exchange.
The October oil contract lost 78 cents to US$89.43 a barrel, gold futures fell $5.20 to US$1,824.90 and copper shed four cents to US$3.93 a pound.
The rise in stock markets also came despite a downgrade of two of France’s biggest banks.
Moody’s downgraded the credit ratings of French banks Societe Generale and Credit Agricole on Wednesday following a period of huge volatility in the markets as investors fretted about their exposure to Greek debt.
Some sort of move by Moody’s had been widely expected this week since the agency had put them and rival BNP Paribas on review for downgrade in mid-June. But there had been fears that the downgrades might have even been harsher.
The leaders of Greece, France and Germany will seek ways to contain the spiralling debt crisis and prevent it from further roiling global financial markets in a teleconference on Wednesday evening. That will follow days of uncertainty in the markets as to whether Greece will get its next batch of bailout funds to say afloat beyond next month.
In addition, the Italian government has passed a first vote on its austerity plan.
The CAC-40 in France was 1.5 per cent higher, Germany’s DAX was 2.5 per cent higher and Britain’s FTSE 100 index rose 1.7 per cent.
In Canadian corporate news, supermarket operator Empire Company Ltd. (TSX:EMP.A), which operates the Sobeys stores and has interests in real estate and movie theatres, said profits in the quarter ended Aug. 6 were $89.2 million or $1.31 per diluted share.
That compared with $86.3 million or $1.26 per share in the comparable prior-year period, which ended July 31. Revenue was $4.15 billion, up from $4.02 billion as sales increased $128 million or 3.2 per cent. Shares added 11 cents to $57.26.
Gran Tierra Energy Inc. (TSX:GTE) has confirmed new oil discoveries in both Colombia and Argentina and says it plans additional drilling this year in those countries as well as in Brazil. Shares in the company added five per cent or 31 cents to $6.08.
