Rising energy stocks helped push the Toronto stock market modestly higher Monday while investors looked to an upcoming heavy slate of earnings results from the big Canadian banks. The S& P/ TSX composite index advanced 21.36 points to 14,227.08, with gains limited by base metal miners amid fresh concerns over the Chinese property market. The Canadian dollar gained US0.54� to US90.36�. Stocks resumed rallying in New York following a slight dip last week with the Dow Jones industrials ahead 103.84 points to 16,207.14. The Nasdaq climbed 29.56 points to 4,292.97 and the S& P 500 index rose 11.36 points to 1,847.61, just a point shy of its finish at the end of 2013. The April crude contract on the New York Mercantile Exchange added US62� to US$ 102.82 a barrel, lifted in part by a closely- watched survey that showed German business sentiment at its highest level in two and a half years and the energy group gained 0.75%. The gold sector gained about 0.15% as the April bullion contract rose US$ 14.40 to US$ 1,338.30 an ounce. It's the contract's its highest close in almost four months.

The Vancouver- based mining company says HudBay's offer, which originally valued Augusta at roughly $ 540 million, doesn't recognize the value of the Rosemont copper project in Arizona. " Rosemont is a high- quality, world- class asset. We will not let HudBay steal this asset with this lowball bid," Augusta chief executive Gil Clausen told analysts Monday in a conference call. HudBay is offering to exchange 0.315 of a Hud- Bay share for each Augusta share it doesn't already own. Based on the Monday afternoon market price for HudBay stock, its offer was worth about $ 2.75 per share - down from the implied value of $ 2.96 when the offer was made Feb. 9. Clausen also said the HudBay offer is being rejected by four shareholders, as well as its directors and officers who collectively control 33 per cent of Augusta's equities. - The Canadian Press Augusta Resource rejects HudBay N offer EW YORK - Egg McMuffin, meet the Waffle Taco. Taco Bell is readying for the launch of its national breakfast menu on March 27, with items such as the A. M. Crunchwrap designed to appeal to its fan base of younger men. And the chain says breakfast will be available until 11 a. m. - a half- hour longer than McDonald's offers its Egg McMuffins. " We can turn the breakfast conversation into a two- horse race," Taco Bell president Brian Niccol said in an interview, noting Taco Bell intends to be a " strong No. 2" after McDonald's. McDonald's has long been the fast- food leader in the mornings, with its popular sausage biscuits, hotcakes and other items pulling in roughly 20 per cent of the company's U. S. sales. But the chain has been facing stiffer competition in recent years, with competitors such as Starbucks and Subway rolling out breakfast sandwiches as well. It's not clear how Taco Bell's entry into breakfast will alter the fast- food landscape. Last year, an executive with Taco Bell's parent company, Yum Brands, said breakfast accounted for about four per cent of sales in locations where it was tested. But that was before the chain put its full marketing might behind the menu, he noted. McDonald's, which has more than 14,000 U. S. locations, also said it plans to step up its marketing of breakfast this year as it faces intensifying competition. The president of McDonald's USA, Jeff Stratton, also told The Associated Press the chain is in the early stages of looking at whether it can extend its breakfast hours. Stratton noted cutting off breakfast on the weekends at 10: 30 a. m. " doesn't go very well" with people in their 20s and 30s in particular. Still, figuring out how to serve both breakfast and lunch poses an operational challenge given the limited kitchen space in restaurants. Stratton declined to provide any details on how McDonald's would adjust kitchen operations to make breakfast later in the day. " Well, we're just beginning... We're just taking a look at it," he said. - The Associated Press Bacon, eggs... waffle taco By Candice Choi B_ 05_ Feb- 25- 14_ FP_ 01. indd B5 2/ 24/ 14 8: 39: 43 PM ;
