Canadian and American markets moved higher on Friday, with the TSX posting a new all-time closing high, even as jobs reports in both countries painted different economic pictures.

In New York, the Dow Jones industrial average was up 307.06 points at 38,904.04. The S&P 500 index was up 57.13 points at 5,204.34 and the Nasdaq composite was up 199.44 points at 16,248.52, both gaining more than one per cent.
