The Toronto stock market closed little changed Monday as traders looked for direction following volatile trading last week. The S& P/ TSX composite index edged up 7.68 points to 13,794.18 as the Canadian dollar fell US0.13� to US90.46�. U. S. indexes generally eked out minor gains as the Dow Jones industrial average rose 7.71 points to 15,801.79, Nasdaq was ahead 22.31 points to 4,148.17 and the S& P 500 climbed 2.82 points to 1,799.84. The TSX and the Dow both advanced about 0.6% last week as the U. S. unemployment rate dipped to 6.6% from 6.7% - the lowest rate since the global financial crisis hit in late 2008 - even as labour force participation increased. Despite that expectation, investors are also looking ahead to comments from the new Federal Reserve chairwoman, Janet Yellen, before the U. S. Congress on Tuesday for any hint at a change in policy. The TSX gold sector ran ahead about 3.33% in advance of earnings from several major miners this week while gold rose US$ 11.50 to US$ 1,274.80 an ounce. The energy sector was the leading decliner, down 0.62% even as March crude on the New York Mercantile Exchange edged US18� higher to US$ 100.06 a barrel.

The Toronto- based company, in a bid announced on the weekend, is offering to exchange 0.315 of a HudBay share for each Augusta share it doesn't already own - valuing the junior mining company at about $ 540 million. Shares of Vancouver- based Augusta soared more than 27 per cent, or 69 cents, to $ 3.20 on the Toronto Stock Exchange Monday, well above the implied value of $ 2.96 when the offer was made. HudBay stock fell 57 cents, or just over six per cent, to $ 8.83. HudBay Minerals Inc. is out to acquire all the shares of Augusta Resources Corp. that it doesn't already own in a cash and stock deal worth about $ 540 million. August's prime asset is its Rosemont copper deposit in Arizona. HudBay is offering $ 2.96 a share. HudBay fell 57 cents to C$ 28.81 while Augusta's shares rocketed more than 27 per cent to $ 3.20. HudBay president and CEO David Garofalo told analysts Monday that his company believes Augusta's management has consistently underestimated the time and cost of developing Rosemont. " We have been patient and supportive shareholders in Augusta since our initial investment in 2010" and remain confident that Rosemont will eventually get the necessary permits, Garofalo said Monday. - The Canadian Press HudBay turns up heat on Augusta takeover T HE new year got off to a slow start for local homebuilders, with the number of new starts down 19 per cent in January, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. ( CMHC) said Monday. The corporation said there were 153 new housing starts recorded last month in the Winnipeg Census Metropolitan Area ( CMA), which includes Winnipeg and 10 neighbouring municipalities. That was a decline of 19 per cent from the 189 starts recorded in January of last year. " The trend in total housing starts moderated for a second consecutive month in January as both single- detached and multi- family construction declined," said Dianne Himbeault, CMHC's senior market analyst for Winnipeg. " The decrease was more pronounced in the multi- family sector, where starts continued to ease from the elevated levels set in 2013." CMHC said the number of multifamily starts fell by 22 per cent to 64 units from 82 in January of last year. Single starts were off by 16.8 per cent to 89 from 107. CMHC has said it expects to see a slowdown in new- home construction activity this year in both Manitoba and the Winnipeg CMA. In its first- quarter forecast released late last week, the corporation said the number of housing starts in Manitoba's major urban areas is expected to decline by 8.9 per cent to 6,800 units from 7,465 in 2013. For the Winnipeg CMA, it's forecasting a six per cent decline - 4,425 units versus 4,705. It predicted a combination of fewer immigrant arrivals, more moderate employment and income growth and a growing inventory of unsold homes will prompt local builders to scale back their construction activity this year. The pace of housing starts also slowed at the national level in January compared with December, CMHC said Monday. It estimated there were 11,737 actual starts during the month and that is extrapolated out to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 180,248. That's down from 187,144 in December. - Staff/ Canadian Press Housing starts slide to kick off a new year B_ 06_ Feb- 11- 14_ FP_ 01. indd B6 2/ 10/ 14 8: 32: 48 PM ;
