Walkingstick: TTIP Negotiators Open for BRICS Participation -
EU LawmakerTransatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) negotiators are open for dialogue with BRICS countries, but they should be willing to participate in the discussion as well, Member of the European Parliament Emma McClarkin told Sputnik on Wednesday.
Anastasia Levchenko — BRICS is an association of five major developing economies, comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa.
The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) between the European Union and the United States is aimed at creating the world's largest free trade zone that would account for 60 percent of global production. The deal drew criticism from the public for the lack of transparency in its negotiations and the power it would give to international corporations. It has also been slammed for bypassing WTO framework and excluding BRICS countries.
"As for the concerns about BRICS countries being excluded, we are always open to discussions, but they have to be as willing to join us as well. If we all work together, we have to agree on rules that we can all sign up to," McClarkin said.

Thunderhawk: Disastrous Third Quarter Wipes $11 Trln Off Global Economy
Imbalances in international trade, the dollar’s strength, low commodity prices and capital flight from emerging markets have all contributed to the increased financial and economic risks this outgoing quarter, albeit the short-term outlook is getting better due to faster growth in the US and the Eurozone.

Thunderhawk: Eurozone Slips Into Disinflation Due to Cheap Commodities
Lower commodities prices and factory gate disinflation in many emerging markets undermined prices growth in the Eurozone in September, stirring concerns in the broader economy and leveraging additional stimulus pressure upon the European Central Bank (ECB).
Inflation in the common currency area dropped into negative territory for the first time in six months as raw materials prices dropped to a four-year low. The European Central Bank (ECB) is now facing a double-edged challenge: while they may deal with disinflation by adding more monetary stimulus measures, the robust economic growth in the euro area, coupled with looser policy might create asset bubbles in the hottest sectors across the region, like manufacturing in Germany or services in Italy.

Thunderhawk: US House Passes Funding Bill Avoiding Government Shutdown
The US House of Representatives has passed a government spending bill, which temporarily averts a US government shutdown.
On Wednesday, the Republican controlled House voted 277-151 on legislation that will keep government operations running, after the US Senate earlier in the day approved the resolution to fund the federal government through December 11.
The spending bill was sent to US President Barack Obama after the Wednesday House vote. Obama signed the spending extension legislation later on Wednesday, according to a White House statement.
In 2013, the US Congress could not agree either on an annual federal budget or a short-term funding bill, which led to a partial US government shutdown.

Thunderhawk: European Dark Pools Brace for Continent-Wide Limits on Trading
The European Union is going ahead with new regulations that could stop many of the continent’s largest companies from trading on dark pools, even though a senior lawmaker has denounced the rules as unworkable and exchanges have said they will impact trading in unpredictable ways.
The European Securities and Markets Authority made one concession to its critics when it published the final version of the rules on Monday. The EU’s markets regulator changed an existing exemption to the trading limits, so that stakes in thinly traded companies can more easily change hands on dark pools once the new rules come into force in January 2017.
The exemption -- called the large-in-scale waiver -- allows stakes to trade on dark pools without restriction. Both regulators and market operators want to ensure that investors can trade stakes in companies without share prices moving against them. Some venues criticized ESMA for not reducing the block-trading threshold for the most-traded stocks, which are also the continent’s biggest companies.

Thunderhawk: VIDEO: Oil's Killing U.S. Power Generators, And They Don't Even Burn It
Shares of U.S. power generators posted their worst weekly decline in more than six years, dragged down in part by the slide in global oil prices. And they don’t even burn the stuff.
The glut of crude pooling up around the world has cut oil prices 23 percent in three months, and overseas natural gas supplies linked to crude are so cheap that America’s gas exports can’t compete. Traders speculating that more of the power-plant fuel will just remain in the U.S. sent gas futures to the lowest seasonal level in 14 years. And power stocks followed suit last week, with a Bloomberg Intelligence index of generators sliding 12.9 percent, touching a low on Sept. 24 not seen since July 2012.
Power producers continued their slide on Monday with the Bloomberg index falling 1.5 percent to 108.52 at the close in New York. Dynegy Inc. led the declines, dropping 3.2 percent.
“Power price futures have fallen with natural gas prices amid concern about excess shale gas supply, in part because low oil prices may reduce price competitiveness and demand for U.S. liquefied natural gas exports," said Stacy Nemeroff, a utilities analyst for Bloomberg Intelligence. “Investors may also be selling off power stocks as part of a strategy to reduce overall commodity exposure.”
The slump in energy prices is just the latest challenge threatening an industry that’s also facing tepid demand, rising environmental costs, high debt levels and increasing competition from wind farms and solar plants.
Talen Energy Corp. led the declines last week among power producers, falling 17 percent.
Dynegy fell 16 percent last week. The Houston, Texas-based power producer recovered some of its losses on Friday, rising 5 percent at the close in New York. A day earlier, the company said cost savings will add $250 million in earnings before interest, taxes, deductions and amortizations and $400 million in balance sheet improvements over three years.
NRG Energy Inc., the largest U.S. independent power producer, fell 16 percent for the week.
Burning Gas
Only 1 percent of the nation’s electricity is now generated from burning petroleum. The power market, which once relied on oil to make 20 percent of electricity, weaned itself off of the fossil fuel after the 1970’s energy crisis and now relies on gas for about a third of supply. In July, the fuel surpassed coal for the second time to account for the biggest share of power generation.
Gas futures for January 2016 delivery sank 3.4 percent to $2.918 per million British thermal units in two weeks. Wholesale on-peak power for next year tumbled 4.5 percent at PJM Interconnection LLC’s Western hub, a benchmark for the largest U.S. grid.
Generators that own efficient gas-fired plants, such as Calpine Corp., may actually benefit from cheap gas versus those running coal-fired and nuclear stations. While lower power prices may squeeze Calpine’s margins, the switch to cheap gas generation stands to increase the company’s sales, Nemeroff said.
Calpine’s shares outperformed competitors last week, while still falling 7 percent.
Disappearing Demand
Factors that underpinned growth forecasts for natural gas demand such as liquefied natural gas exports and the increasing use of the fuel for power generation have “disappeared,” Angie Storozynski, an analyst for Macquarie Capital in New York, said in a Sept. 23 e-mail.
Wolfe Research LLC analyst Steven Fleishman said he doesn’t see things turning around anytime soon for power producers. He downgraded the independent producer sector in a research note issued on Sept. 20, citing a “worsening” supply and demand outlook, high debt levels and growing “long-term risks” from renewables.
“Fairly stable sub-$3 gas prices this year have left us convinced that $3 is the new $4, at least until new LNG exports pick up," he said.
