NEW YORK, May 5 (Reuters) - Crude oil bounced back from its lowest level since November on Friday on the likelihood key producers could extend output cuts beyond an agreed-on June deadline, while a global stocks index set a fresh record high as corporate earnings remained strong.
Markets were rattled overnight as crude stumbled further, its weekly decline close to 10 percent at one point, but comments from Saudi Arabia's OPEC governor Adeeb Al-Aama helped put a floor under oil prices.
"There's an emerging consensus among participating countries on the need to extend the production agreement reached last year," the official told Reuters. Russia and other producers have agreed to curb production by 1.8 million barre1ls per day until June 30. OPEC ministers next meet on May 25.
Better-than-expected U.S. non-farm payrolls data showed jobs growth rebounded sharply last month with 211,000 added and the national unemployment rate down to near a 10-year low of 4.4 percent. Wall Street, the energy sector .SPNY was posting its strongest daily showing since late March while the benchmark S&P, despite the strong payrolls report, remained in the tight range of the past two weeks.
"OPEC is going to continue the cuts. The question is, is that enough to keep oil prices at a level that is good for business and for producers?" said Quincy Krosby, market strategist at Prudential Financial (LON:PRU) in Newark, New Jersey.
"Today it has helped to the overall turn on the markets."
The Dow Jones Industrial Average .DJI rose 20.29 points, or 0.1 percent, to 20,971.76, the S&P 500 .SPX gained 4.72 points, or 0.20 percent, to 2,394.24 and the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC added 10.05 points, or 0.17 percent, to 6,085.38.
The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 index .FTEU3 rose 0.69 percent and MSCI's gauge of stocks across the globe .MIWD00000PUS gained 0.36 percent after touching a record high. market stocks lost 0.24 percent.

Prudential's Krosby said the slide in commodities would not necessarily drag other markets lower "as long as you accept the thesis that it is all about supply."

"The energy complex is slowly succumbing to an opinion that this year's OPEC production cuts have been ineffective," Jim Ritterbusch, president of Chicago-based energy advisory firm Ritterbusch & Associates, said in a note.
"We feel that the (OPEC) cartel has come to a fork in the road in which the current agreement will be abandoned or steps will need to be taken to double down on current efforts by increasing production curtailments."
