Juncker's key aide Selmayr becomes Brussels' top civil servant

Juncker's key aide Selmayr becomes Brussels' top civil servant Jean-Claude Juncker's right hand man Martin Selmayr has been made the most senior civil servant in the European Commission in a surprise move.

Selmayr, currently the head of Cabinet, is taking over the role from Alexander Italianer who has decided to retire from 1 March. Clara Martinez Alberola takes Selmayr's former job - the first woman in that role - and Richard Szostak becomes the deputy head of Cabinet.

Juncker said: "This morning, Alexander Italianer confirmed to me his wish to retire as Secretary-General of the Commission as of 1 March. I want to express my deep gratitude to him for decades of loyal service to the European Commission and over the past three years to me as its President. I truly appreciated working with such an experienced and knowledgeable Secretary-General and I want to thank him for his skillful steer of our administration, as well as for having agreed to stay on for another month to ensure a smooth transition."

Selmayr is now positioned at the heart of Brussels and will steer the administration in implementing Juncker’s legislative legacy for the next 20 months — and most likely continue his work after Juncker's departure.

He is a divisive figure both within the European Commission and beyond, having played a key role in the Brexit process as well as shaking up the Brussels bureaucracy over the last three years.

He is believed to be behind at least some of the Brussels-based leaks that painted Theresa May in a particularly bad light, suggesting she looked "tormented" and was "begging" for help. The leak occurred in the weeks before December's 11th-hour joint agreement that paved the way for sufficient progress to be granted.

But it is not just the UK he appears to be at loggerheads with: he is rumoured to have a fractious relationship with the EU's chief negotiator and Juncker's some-time presidential rival Michel Barnier.

Barnier is widely seen as Juncker's most likely successor but Selmayr's promotion means Juncker's legacy should continue well beyond his tenure.

Juncker said: "The next 20 months will be decisive in fully delivering on a Europe that protects, empowers and defends. I need the best team in place... Over the past years, Clara and Martin have earned my full trust and confidence. They have proven that together, they make a very strong team that can find swift and sound solutions to the most pressing challenges that Europe faces.

"With their professionalism, expertise and strong team spirit, the Commission will be able to deliver its legislative agenda and prepare for the future."* * Reported by City A.M. 2 hours ago.

MORGAN STANLEY: The stock market's meltdown was just an 'appetizer' — here's how to protect against the next selloff

MORGAN STANLEY: The stock market's meltdown was just an 'appetizer' — here's how to protect against the next selloff· *The US stock market correction from earlier in February may have been painful for investors, but it also gave them a dry run to prepare for another major market event.*
· *Morgan Stanley has learned from the experience, and provides four hedging recommendations in the event of another meltdown.*

--------------------

Sure, the 10% correction that rocked US equity markets earlier this month was jarring and painful, but it also gave investors a dry run for a major market meltdown.

As a result, traders now have a good idea what tactics will work when defending against sharp losses. And that's a major positive, considering Morgan Stanley thinks the worst is yet to come.

The selloff was an "appetizer, not the main course," Andrew Sheets, Morgan Stanley's chief cross-asset strategist, wrote in a client note. We "remain in the late stages of a late-cycle environment," he said.

With that in mind, Morgan Stanley makes the important distinction the headwinds currently facing the market — increasing valuations, rising inflation, tightening policy, higher commodity prices, and more volatility — are all normal hallmarks of a late-cycle environment.

As such, the firm thinks there's ample opportunity to identify downside protection in the event of further turbulence. And since the traditional inverse relationship between stocks and bonds has disintegrated, depriving the equity market of a tried and true hedge, investors would be wise to seek diversification.

Morgan Stanley has crunched the numbers and identified four asset classes that could be a safe haven for traders if another stock selloff takes hold:

· *Japanese yen (JPY) *— "After initial sluggishness, JPY did move materially and proved to be a good offset for portfolios. JPY also stands out as the one asset class where implied vols are still low to hedge for a repeat of last month."
· *Nikkei *— "Nikkei has been the most volatile index, underperforming other regions far more than even current implied vols would suggest."
· *European equities *— "Both Eurostoxx and FTSE 100, suffered sharp declines relative to what the option market implies today. That said, Europe's material underperformance since mid-2016 means we see value in being long instead."
· *Brent crude *— "Brent did decline much more than what is in the price for options volatility currently, but this is more a reflection of still low implied vols on Brent rather than the magnitude of the decline (relative to previous sell-offs). As with European equities, we see better value in being long instead."

Don't feel like taking Morgan Stanley's word for it? The chart below shows the hedging costs for each of them, relative to their expected performance in a market event similar to the one seen between January 24 and February 14. As you'll note, the asset classes listed above are situated the highest on the y-axis.

Anglo Pacific could become the go-to royalty vehicle for the 21st century

0
0
Anglo Pacific Group plc (LON:APF) hit a three-year high in January, which may surprise those who thought coal was dead as an investment. Not that the mining royalties specialist is totally reliant on coal for its income, but it does form a large part of its cash flow, and the share price rise has gone hand-in-hand with strong coal prices. An investment in coal may not be as sexy as one in lithium or cobalt, but to Julian Treger, Anglo Pacific’s chief executive, it makes a lot of sense. Mining, he argues, is a perfect way for investors to mix the old with the new: As enthusiasm for the latest fad ebbs and flows there’s always one element of certainty, that the materials for whatever it is that’s being made will have to be mined. Hence, there’s been a boom in the lithium mining sector in response to hype about electric car batteries, with cobalt slipstreaming along behind. Copper has enjoyed some benefit from this narrative too, as the thinking is that more wiring will be needed in electric vehicles than in petrol-powered ones. In the case of coal, there’s power generation. How much power is being used to mine the cryptocurrencies that are sweeping through world markets at the moment? That’s hard to quantify, but it has been notable that a US investor in Atlantic Power Corp (NYSE:AT) has been urging the company to use surplus electricity to mine cryptos, while in China the authorities are said to have curbed power supply to known cryptocurrency miners. The 21st-century technological revolution is steam-powered In the US, much of the power generated for use in Tesla’s electric vehicles actually comes from steam-powered coal stations, an irony not lost on Treger. “These cars are powered by steam, as they were 120 years ago,” he muses. Perhaps even more significantly for the longer-term, an immense amount of power is used to cool the world’s computers and to keep them cool, and in many countries, particularly outside of Europe, that means coal. “It’s pretty unfortunate for UK investors that there’s a perception that coal is done for,” says Treger. “But demand continues to grow in absolute terms, although its share is falling.” That dynamic, though subtle in itself, has had a fairly unsubtle read-through: the coal price has been rising. Indeed, in the past 12 months, the coal price has outperformed the expectations of many analysts by at least 100%. The other side of the same coin, though, is, of course, pollution, but paradoxically perhaps, here there is help for coal producers too. That’s because, in China, a key bellwether for the world’s attitudes towards coal mining and pollution, production of the dirtiest coal is being aggressively phased out in favour of the highest quality coal. This type of coal also commands the highest margin, and those that have it are quids in. Dirty coal: bad; clean coal: good (or not so bad) This is true in the case of Anglo Pacific, which derives the bulk of its royalty income from Kestrel, a high-quality clean-coal mine in Australia operated by Rio Tinto. Anglo Pacific doesn’t hold a royalty over the entire mine, and nor is the quality of the ground over which it does hold its royalty completely consistent, so, three years ago, when Rio wasn’t mining as much of the Anglo royalty area as it is now, and when the coal price was lower, there was less money for Anglo Pacific. It is not surprising that the share price dipped back then and took some time to recover. Since then, Treger’s been active; he’s raised money and acquired more royalties for the company, in clean coal at Whitehaven’s Narrabri mine, but also in other commodities. “Coal isn’t going to go away,” he says. “It’s cheaper for the poorer economies of the world. The more thoughtful response isn’t no coal, but cleaner coal.” Even so, the overall percentage of Anglo Pacific’s portfolio devoted to coal is now smaller, given the overall exposure to uranium, vanadium, gold, copper, silver, cobalt, iron ore and nickel. “Generally we’ve done one or two transactions per year, but this year I hope we can do three or four, ” ” says Treger. He’s helped by a higher share price, of course, but also by a market that seems open to business, and seems well and truly over the optimistic sky-high valuations that were generated by the last boom. What type of deal would he like to do, bearing in mind that different markets around the world have had different responses to the new technologies that are emerging? “Toronto has been a bit subdued,” he says. “But Australia has been on a lithium, electric vehicle bandwagon for probably about 18 months now. There’s been a bull market for the more speculative mining stocks, but that’s a sort of universe on its own. We try to block out the chatter but other than in the energy space we’re not seeing yet a very hyped story.” Cobalt, for example, he thinks is probably nearing the end of its run. The emphasis instead, goes on general, longer-term global economic development. “Base metals like zinc, copper and nickel could still run. The price of copper bottomed out at US$2.00. It’s now US$3.20 but it could go to US$4.00 or US$5.00 or more. We’ll have to see.” In that sense, Anglo Pacific stands out from most of its peers, in that it’s not focussed on gold and silver royalties. Instead, this is a royalty company that’s geared to the global economy and advancing technology. “We as a sector are actually a beneficiary of disruption and there’s an opportunity for us to become the go-to royalty vehicle for the twenty-first century,” Treger believes. Broker sees plenty of opportunities for more royalty acquisitions Peel Hunt appears to be coming round to this point of view. Strong coal prices should give Anglo another year of solid income in 2018, it said. The broker, which has upgraded the stock to 'add' from 'hold', thinks the current coal price environment could enable management to start acquiring royalties from internal cash resources. Anglo Pacific currently derives the bulk of its royalty income from Kestrel, a high-quality clean-coal mine in Australia operated by Rio Tinto, but is always on the look-out for more royalties. “Ongoing coal price strength or royalty acquisitions can each plot a route to a valuation range of 220p-250p, suggesting further upside beyond our revised 160p base case target price,” Peel Hunt said. Coal prices have already held up better than many expected so far in 2018. The broker's cash flow estimates plus an undrawn US$40mln credit facility suggests a budget of up to US$135mln for royalty deals in 2018 without the need for the company to issue shares. At a 10% acquisition yield, this could add 25-40% to the broker's medium-term operating cash flows. Furthermore, based on the broker's recent meetings with management, it is clear the company has confidence in the deals coming down the pipe. It did two deals in 2017 but is looking to top that in 2018. “The overarching trend is for further base metal exposure but, that said, no commodity would be ruled out if the transaction surpasses management’s internal metrics of quality, jurisdiction, and yield. This is particularly the case in the secondary royalty market,” the broker noted. Royalty income in 2017 rose 90% to £37mln-£37.75mln from the year before with a further £4.7mln/£5mln to come from uranium operation Denison/McClean. READ Record year for Anglo Pacific as coal prices recover The broker is forecasting adjusted profit before tax of £33.2mln in 2017, up from £16.8mln in 2016, and sees this rising to £43.2mln in 2018 on the back of a rise in sales to £43.3mln. The cash generation should not only assist in landing more royalty deals for Anglo but should also underpin Peel Hunt's forecast of an 8.5p dividend in 2018. Based on Anglo's current share price of around 144p, that would give a dividend yield of 5.9%. Reported by Proactive Investors 15 minutes ago.

Fortified Dairy Products Market Would Reach US$ 150,000 Mn by 2026 - Future Market Insights

VALLEY COTTAGE, NY, Feb. 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- A new Future Market Insights report envisages the global fortified dairy products market to record an impressive CAGR during the forecast period, 2017 to 2026. According to the report, worldwide sales of fortified dairy products are poised to bring in revenues more than US$ 150,000 Mn by 2026-end. According to WHO, many school children are being afflicted with the deficiency of vitamin A. Therefore, vitamin A-fortified dairy products hold immense potential in curtailing this deficiency.

With soaring utilization of fortified dairy products, the fortifying agent manufacturers have been concentrating on identification of novel micronutrients in accordance with the development of new, innovative solutions for manufacturers of end-products. A major challenge that prevails for manufacturers of fortified dairy products is the provision of required calcium content comprising products while retaining the products’ taste and appealing properties. Companies actively contributing to growth of global fortified dairy products market, as profiled by FMI’s report, include Fonterra Group Cooperative Limited, BASF SE, Nestlé S.A., General Mills, Inc., Bright Dairy & Food Co., Ltd., Danone, China Modern Dairy Holdings Ltd., GCMMF Ltd., Arla Foods UK Plc, and Dean Foods Company.

*Need to Replenish Lost Nutrients drives Penetration of Fortification into Dairy Products*

The dairy industry is one of the most promising among various applications in the food and beverage sector. Although dairy products are deemed as excellent source of essential nutrients, many processing methods that include ultra-heat treatment, pasteurization, spray drying, and heating result into loss of certain imperative nutrients. Replenishing lost nutrients has therefore become imperative, and fortification has emerged as a highly effective method for retaining lost nutrients in dairy products. Moreover, dairy products that are fortified with vitamin D enable improvement in the absorption rate of calcium along with maintaining blood calcium level.

Health-conscious consumers have commenced consumption of yogurts, eyeing them as healthier alternatives to the dairy products including ice creams and milkshakes, which are rich in calories. Accelerated penetration of fortification technology into yogurts has further propelled sale of functional food products. Several countries around the world are better understanding importance of fortification and accepting practice of fortifying dairy products, thereby boosting sales of these products. On the other hand, relatively higher price of fortified dairy products compared to their non-fortified counterparts will curb their adoption among developing and low-income countries to a certain extent.

*Preview Analysis on Global Fortified Dairy Products Market Segmentation By Product Type- Milk, Milk Powder and Formula, Flavored Milk, Cheese, Dairy Based Yogurt, Other Products; Micronutrients- Vitamins, Minerals, Other Fortifying Nutrients; Sales Channel- Modern Trade, Convenience Stores, Departmental Stores, Drug Stores, Online Stores, Other Sales Channel*: https://www.futuremarketinsights.com/reports/fortified-dairy-products-market

*APEJ to Dominate Global Fortified Dairy Products Market*

The global market for fortified dairy products will continue to be dominated by Asia-Pacific excluding Japan (APEJ), with sales poised to reach nearly US$ 50,000 Mn in revenues by 2026-end. Revenues from the market in APEJ are slated to exhibit the highest CAGR through 2026, followed by North America. Europe will prevail as the second most lucrative market for fortified dairy products. The market in North America will rise at a relatively higher CAGR than that in Europe through 2026.

Milk powder and formula is expected to remain the leading revenue contributing product in the market, trailed by milk and flavored milk. Flavored milk is expected to persist as the fast-selling product in the market through 2026. Sales of dairy-based yogurt and milk in the global fortified dairy products market are expected to record a parallel rise through 2026.

*Modern Trade to Remain Leading Sales Channel for Fortified Dairy Products*

In terms of revenues, modern trade is expected to remain the leading sales channel for fortified dairy products, with an estimated market share of over 30% during the forecast period. Revenues from fortified dairy products sales in convenience stores and departmental stores will also remain significant, collectively poised to close in approximately similar to those obtained from sales in modern trade.

Although vitamins will remain dominant among micronutrients used for fortifying dairy products in terms of revenues, sales of minerals are expected to register the fastest growth in the market through 2026.

The History Of Paternity Leave? There Isn't Much

0
0
The History Of Paternity Leave? There Isn't Much Watch VideoThe history of paternity leave is short. Even shorter when it comes to paid paternity leave.

Maternity leave is a longer story, dating back to the Industrial Revolution. Countries in Europe and elsewhere decided that paid maternity leave was necessary to make sure women could work and care for kids, notes a UCLA scholar.

Today, most countries have some type of paid family leave law — although dads don't always get equal benefits.

First, the outliers: Only eight countries don't have nationwide paid family programs. Seven of them, like the Marshall Islands and Micronesia, are far short of being economic powerhouses. The United States — the largest economy in the world — is No. 8. 

*SEE MORE: What's The State Of Maternity Leave In America?*

Many affluent nations are way more generous. Sweden, for example: 16 months of paid leave to be divvied up between the parents. Dads, it turns out, don't always take advantage of leave plans according to Atlantic magazine, so countries like Norway, Iceland, Germany and Finland are offering incentives. More money in some cases, or requiring new dads to use a certain portion of shared leave.

The idea is to make paternity leave just as commonplace in the culture, benefiting kids, dads, families and businesses. Back here in the U.S., many new dads aren't so fortunate. 

Here's why: The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 was a major development. Qualifying men and women were granted up to 12 weeks of leave for a number of reasons, including a newborn or adoption. It applied to about 60 percent of workers at the time. The only thing? It was unpaid leave. 

President Trump is talking about paid parental leave. He called for six weeks of leave in the 2017 budget and included a line in his recent State of the Union address, which, for now, has stalled out. That means most new parents are at the mercy of their employer. 

Illinois, Ohio and Virginia provide paid parental leave for state employees. Even broader, four states now have paid plans for almost all employees financed through a payroll tax. Rhode Island — four weeks. California and New Jersey — six weeks. New York gives eight weeks but plans to bump that up to 12 weeks.

Washington, D.C., is scheduled to roll out a plan in 2020 for eight weeks of paid leave for all new parents. But what about the rest of the country? Millions of new dads? Some companies are filling the gap, but even then there are disparities.

For instance, Entrepreneur profiled Google's benefits. A biological mom gets 22 weeks paid time off, whereas a primary caregiver — maybe a biological father or adoptive dad — 12 weeks. If the dad is the nonprimary caregiver? Seven weeks. Across the board, less than 20 percent of U.S. employers have paid paternity leave, according to a 2015 survey from the Society for Human Resource Management.   

The same group found 58 percent of companies have some form of paid maternity leave, more than double what's available for men.  Reported by Newsy 47 minutes ago.

GREELEY, Colo., Feb. 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Moy Park (Bondco) Plc (the “Issuer”), a financing subsidiary of Moy Park Holdings (Europe) Limited and an indirect subsidiary of Pilgrim’s Pride Corporation (“PPC”), today announced that it intends to launch an offer to purchase for cash (the “Tender Offer”) any and all its outstanding 6.25% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”).  The Issuer intends to launch the Tender Offer following the announcement of pricing of an anticipated financing by PPC.In connection with the Tender Offer, the Issuer also intends to solicit (the “Consent Solicitation”) the consents of the holders of the Notes to the adoption of certain amendments (the “Proposed Amendments”) to the indenture governing the Notes to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants, as well as various events of default and related provisions contained in such indenture.  The Proposed Amendments require the consents (the “Required Consents”) of holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes.  Holders who tender outstanding Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer will also be providing consents with respect to the Proposed Amendments.
