Nonprofit Receives Grant to Help Prevent Local Oil Production
Santa Barbara County faces a tripling of onshore oil production. Three oil companies are proposing to drill and operate over 700 new wells in Cat Canyon Oil Field, posing dangerous threats to clean air, clean water, public safety, and our climate. What’s more, these oil companies are not proposing conventional oil drilling, which is risky enough, but rather they are seeking permits for extreme, enhanced oil extraction processes known as cyclic steam injection and steam flooding, which are far riskier and more energy intensive than traditional drilling. The Environmental Defense Center (EDC) has just received $10,000 in grant funding from the Fund for Santa Barbara to help confront this major threat.

Steel & Tube expecting large first half loss
One of the the country's largest steel manufacturers says adverse trading conditions will result in a large first half loss. Steel & Tube warned in November that its first half result would be less than last year's profit, but conditions were worse than expected, further impacting sales revenue and volumes. It was now forecasting a loss in underlying EBIT (earnings before interest and tax) of between $36 million and $37m in the six months to December, compared with a $9.8m underlying profit the year earlier. The result included non-cash charges of $37m related to a write-down in the company's goodwill, as well as $2m in restructuring costs and $2m in debt write-offs. The bottom line would be further affected by another $2m to $3m charge resulting from changes in tax accounting.

Consumers relatively upbeat in latest confidence index
Low interest rates and a stronger housing market are keeping consumers relatively buoyant. The ANZ-Roy Morgan Consumer Confidence Index was unchanged at 123 in January, sitting around its best level in more than a year. Consumers were slightly less optimistic about their current position but are slightly more upbeat about the longer term, and more think it's a good time to buy a big-ticket item. "New Zealand consumers are feeling pretty alright about things at the moment - the labour market remains tight, interest rates are low and the housing market is lifting again," ANZ's chief economist Sharon Zollner said. She said the lift in the housing market was likely behind the rise in those thinking its a good time to buy a major household item, which in turn would support the retail sector.

Minister expects negotiations with UK on free trade deal to be advanced
The Minister for Trade believes New Zealand can negotiate a free trade deal with the UK by the end of the year. At noon tomorrow, the United Kingdom's 47-year relationship with the European Union (EU) will end - three and a half years since Britons voted in a referendum to leave. But with another year of negotiations ahead as they finalise the fine print of the exit deal, it's not yet clear what the effects for New Zealand will be. Minister David Parker told Morning Report New Zealand was ready to start negotiations as soon as the United Kingdom was ready. "Their first priority will, of course, be the European Union, because that's their largest and closest trading partner but the prime minister Jacinda Ardern reaffirmed with Boris Johnson that we're ready to start trade renegotiations with them for their post-Brexit trade relationship with New Zealand in the near future.

Yesterdaze: NZ’s heroes of hot air
James Elliott explains how Winston is a rooster, Simon a duck, and Jacinda a lamb in a sprawling analogy highlighting the significance of NZ's election date, announced this week. This week, PM Jacinda Ardern announced we’re having a general election on September 19. Commentators were quick to point out that September 19 will be the 127th anniversary of women’s suffrage in New Zealand. However, given that election day will be preceded by weeks of political pledges and puffery, we shouldn’t forget that September 19 also marks the 247th anniversary of the first-ever hot air balloon flight which took place at Versailles in front of the French King Louis XVI on September 19, 1783. And the symbolic relevance of that momentous day to our general election doesn’t end there. When the Montgolfier brothers’ hot air balloon returned safely to earth king Louis declared its occupants to be “heroes of the air”. However, it turns out that those heroic balloonists were in fact a sheep, a rooster and a duck, the Montgolfier brothers…

European Union member states and the European Parliament are soon expected to adopt a so-called “taxonomy” for classifying green investments, after reaching an agreement last month on a list of “sustainable” economic activities. Once the new system enters into force, most likely this year, the European Commission will use this list to determine which financial assets and products are sustainable.

This comes amid reports that Russia has also held talks with Eritrea with an interest to build a naval logistics centre. Should this materialize, Russia will join China and the United States who have bases in Djibouti along the Suez Canal. The Russian government says it is closely monitoring the port city of Berbera in Somaliland as a military base. A publication by The New-York Times this week stated that Russia’s continued interest in Africa is worrying many in the West.
