[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Yngve Slyngstad ? Norway ’ s $ 1 trillion sovereign wealth fund will this year step up its assessment of the risks posed by climate change to its investments in power producers   oil firms and basic materials companies   its CEO told Reuters on Tuesday . Separately   the board of the central bank will soon decide whether to blacklist from the fund one or more companies -- either in the oil   steel or concrete sectors -- for producing too much greenhouse gases   the central bank chief told Reuters . The fund   which invests the proceeds from Norway ’ s oil and gas production for future pensions in stocks   bonds and real estate abroad   is one of the world ’ s biggest shareholders   with stakes totaling 1 . 4 percent of all listed companies . In recent years the world ’ s biggest sovereign wealth fund has become a more active shareholder   trying to influence companies ’ attitudes . Among them are the way companies report on climate change   such as their carbon dioxide emissions   or whether companies have scenario analyses of how more heatwaves   droughts or floods might affect their earnings .  Chief Executive Yngve Slyngstad  said the fund would first focus  its  efforts on electricity producers . “ That is ... the sector that we will first go through and think about in this scenario . The two next ones will be ( basic ) materials and oil .” “ By far the largest ... is electricity producers   which of course has been a specific focus for us because of the so - called coal criteria  ” he said referring to the fund not being allowed by parliament to invest in firms that derive more than 30 percent of their revenue from coal . The proposal to potentially exclude one or more companies in the oil   steel or cement sectors over excessive greenhouse gas emissions is under review by the board of the central bank . “ We have received some recommendations on potential exclusions based on that new criteria . The board is working on the issues ... It ’ s not going to be long  ” central bank governor Oeystein Olsen said   declining to give a more precise timeframe . Slideshow ( 2 Images ) The moves come as the fund is proposing to drop oil and gas stocks from its benchmark index   which would reduce over time its stakes in oil and gas companies . That proposal is under consideration at the finance ministry and will be voted by parliament at a later stage . DOUBLED ITS RETURN IN 2017 Also on Tuesday   the fund said it doubled its return on investment in 2017   beating its benchmark   as strong global stock markets boosted the value of the portfolio . It earned a return of 13 . 7 percent in 2017   up from 6 . 9 percent in 2016 . “ The fund ’ s cumulative return since inception has passed 4   000 billion Norwegian crowns ($ 511 billion ). One out of four crowns of return was generated in 2017   after a very strong year for the fund  ” Slyngstad said in a statement . “ Again   our equity investments returned strongest with a return close to 20 percent .” The fund ’ s biggest single company investment at the end of 2017 was in Apple Inc ( AAPL . O )  worth 66 billion crowns   ahead of Nestle ( NESN . S ) at 51 billion and Royal Dutch Shell ( RDSa . L ) at 50 billion . Apple was also the biggest single contributor to the fund ’ s returns in 2017   ahead of Chinese tech group Tencent Holdings ( 0700 . HK ) and Microsoft ( MSFT . O ). The fund ’ s size is equivalent to $ 200   000 for every Norwegian man   woman and child . The government withdrew 61 billion crowns during 2017 to pay for public expenses   compared with 101 billion crowns in 2016 .  Slyngstad  earned an annual salary of 6 . 7 million crowns   or roughly $ 855   000   in 2017   while  his  chief investment officer for equity strategies   Petter Johnsen   earned more   with 7 . 4 million crowns . By comparison   the country ’ s prime minister   Erna Solberg   earned 1 . 6 million crowns .

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Abu Abdallah ? EASTERN GHOUTA  Syria (Reuters) - His brow dripping with blood and his skin caked with brick dust   Abu Abdallah  was pulled out from under the rubble of  his  house near Damascus after  it  was blown up in an air raid.
 He  was lucky to survive the bomb that fell while  he  was having breakfast  dropped by one of the countless warplanes that emergency workers say have pounded the rebel-held Syrian enclave of Eastern Ghouta in recent days.
 His  three-year-old son was not so fortunate.
âWe were sitting around  eating â said Abu Abdallah - a sobriquet meaning â Abdallah âs fatherâ - as  he  recalled Tuesdayâs strike. âMy son wanted to use the toilet  so his mother took him. Then the missile came down.â
âI was under the rubble... and my head was bent down  I couldnât raise it â said  Abu Abdallah   who declined to give  his  full name. âI said thatâs it  this will be the end of  me .â

 Abu Abdallah  26   comes from the eastern Ghouta village of Marj al-Sultan  which the Syrian army recaptured from insurgents in late 2015.  He  had moved deeper into the enclave to the town of Saqba with  his  family to try to escape the bombing.
âNow itâs still not clear what we will do â  he  said.  His  family is staying with relatives while  he  recovers from a head injury and a back strain.
âThe (world) should have mercy on these children and women because they have nothing to do with the fighting â Abu Abdallah said. âIf they want to fight  let them go fight on the frontlines. But why are they bombing us?â

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Klaus Helmrich ? “Initially there is a high number of players and then over time consolidation happens ”  Klaus Helmrich  said on Wednesday at the launch of a global user organization for Siemens’ MindSphere platform  which competes with General Electric’s Predix and others to help customers gather data from machines.
“I don’t think we will end up with one platform worldwide. There will be a handful or two handfuls in the mid to more distant future ”  Helmrich  said  comparing the proliferation of industrial software platforms with the smartphone industry  which has ended up being dominated by Apple and Samsung.
Siemens already has more than 800 000 intelligent sensors in buildings and machines  including trains and healthcare equipment  putting it in a strong position   Helmrich  said.
“It is a solid basis for the start of the business and makes us optimistic about scale effects ”  he  said  adding that being first to gather a critical mass of software developers and users is crucial to winning customers  much as Apple’s large developer community made its app store the most attractive.
