April 24 (Bloomberg) — Canadian investors are pulling money out of exchange-traded funds for a second year as concern grows that a rally in energy and mining that helped drive equities to the best performance among the world’s largest markets has run its course.

The benchmark Standard & Poor’s/TSX Composite Index is in its 10th month of gains, the longest winning streak since 1983, and has soared 20 percent in the past year.
