S&P GSCI BRENT CRUDE INDEX By Paul Vieira
OTTAWA--Canadian factory shipments rose in October by a faster-than-expected pace, on a strong demand for petroleum and coal products.
Manufacturing sales jumped 2.1% in October from the month before to a seasonally adjusted 70.8 billion Canadian dollars, the equivalent of about $49.8 billion, Statistics Canada said Friday.
The result was stronger than the data agency's advance estimate of a 1.3% increase in October factory sales.
