The Toronto stock market snapped a solid five-day winning streak in a decline led by energy and mining stocks.

The S&P/TSX composite index fell 60.14 points to 11,426.74 after surging 5.6 % since last Monday.

The Canadian dollar was up two-thirds of a cent to 95.23 cents US. Oil fell 38 cents to US$79.05 a barrel after the International Energy Agency lowered its global oil demand forecast from 106 million barrels per day to 105 million. And it said that new technologies that have opened up vast reserves of natural gas will lead to a glut in supply for years to come.

Gold hit another record close, rising $1.10 to US$1,102.50 an ounce.

New York markets were mixed following comments from U.S. Federal Reserve officials that unemployment likely will remain high for the next several years because the economic recovery won’t be strong enough to spur robust hiring. The U.S. jobless rate for October came in at 10.2%.

The Dow Jones industrial average was ahead 20.03 points to 10,246.97, while the Nasdaq composite index was down 2.98 points to 2,151.080 and the S&P 500 index was off 0.07 of a point to 1,093.01.
