[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 Jared Kushner ? It was supposed to be a triumphant year for  White House Senior Adviser Jared Kushner . Part of the team that guided his father-in-law to victory in 2016   the young Kushner  was catapulted into the highest echelons of power.
 He  was handed a broad portfolio that included making peace in the Middle East and was reportedly a key part of Trumpâs inner circle and decision-making team. But as 2017 dragged on  the man known as Mr. Perfect had anything but a perfect year.
Here are  Kushner âs worst moments from 2017:
When  Kushner  visited Iraq in April  he obviously did not want to abandon his dedication to preppy style. But the image of the senior adviser sporting a flak jacket (with âKushnerâ scrawled on it)  along with a blazer and khakis  brought on a torrent of mockery.

Although  Kushner  stepped down as head of Kushner Companies in January   his  real-estate firm gave  him  a number of headaches throughout 2017. Perhaps the biggest one was its use of the EB-5 visa program  which allows wealthy investors to gain visas in return for investing in the U.S.
Jared and Ivanka are reported to be scaling back their roles in the White House after officials have become annoyed by their presence. The move came shortly after Trumpâs decision to back Sen. Luther Strange in the Alabama Senate primary backfired spectacularly and Strange was crushed by conservative challenger Judge Roy Moore.  Kushner  was widely believed to have been a key voice in urging Trump to get involved in the race and back Strangeâa decision Trump himself admitted may have been a âmistake.â
 Kushner  was also widely reported to be a key official encouraging President Trump to fire FBI Director James Comeyâa move which has since turned out to be seen as a mistake as it directly led to the appointment of FBI Special Counsel Robert Mueller  whose probe has dogged the Trump administration throughout 2017.
FBI Special Counsel Robert Muellerâs appointment was announced in the wake of the firing of FBI Director James Comeyâa decision reportedly backed by  Kushner . But as the probe has gone on   Kushner  has apparently become a key figure for Mueller.
 Kushner  was part of a 2016 meeting between Donald Trump Jr. and a Russian lawyer at Trump Towerâa meeting which Trump Jr. said he took as it promised information that would âincriminateâ Hillary Clinton.
 Kushner  was questioned by Muellerâs team in November  during which  he  reportedly answered questions about a meeting with the Russian ambassador during the transition. It later emerged that  Kushner  was the âsenior Trump officialâ who directed former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn to contact the ambassador about a U.N. vote on Israeli settlements.
While it is not clear if the Mueller team believes  Kushner  did anything wrong  Muellerâs interest in him has no doubt led to a tough 2017 for  Kushner .
 Kushner  spent much of 2017 aggravating congressional lawmakers with  his  lack of disclosure about  his  foreign contacts and other information deemed importantâparticularly over various investigations into alleged Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Two Senate committees have complained about  his  failure to hand over certain documents  and that they have learned certain details from the media. Lawmakers on the Senate Intelligence Committee were angered in September when they discovered from media reports that  Kushner  used a private email account occasionally for White House business.
Lawmakers on the Senate Judiciary Committee wrote to  Kushner âs lawyer in November  saying the document collection he provided to the committee was incomplete.
Newsweek reported in December that  Kushner  is still using an interim security clearance after  he  initially omitted dozens of foreign contracts from  his  original form submission for clearance.

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Leonardo da Vinci ? CLOSE The last  Leonardo da Vinci  painting in private hands is going to auction at Christie's in New York for an estimated $100 million. Da Vinciâs depiction of Jesus  titled "Salvator Mundi " will be auctioned on Nov. 15. (Oct. 10) AP

NEW YORK (AP) â  A painting of Christ by the Renaissance master Leonardo da Vinci sold for a record $450 million (380 million euros) at auction on Wednesday   obliterating previous records for artworks sold at auction or privately.
 The painting   called "Salvator Mundi " Italian for "Savior of the World " is one of fewer than 20 paintings by  Leonardo  known to exist and the only one in private hands.  It  was sold by Christie's auction house  which didn't immediately identify the buyer.

The 26-inch-tall (66-centimeter-tall)  Leonardo  painting dates from around 1500 and shows Christ dressed in Renaissance-style robes  his right hand raised in blessing as his left hand holds a crystal sphere.
Its path from  Leonardo 's workshop to the auction block at Christie's was not smooth. Once owned by King Charles I of England  it disappeared from view until 1900  when it resurfaced and was acquired by a British collector. At that time it was attributed to a  Leonardo  disciple  rather than to the master himself.
The painting was sold again in 1958 and then acquired in 2005  badly damaged and partly painted-over  by a consortium of art dealers who paid less than $10 000 (8 445 euros). The art dealers restored the painting and documented its authenticity as a work by  Leonardo .
Christie's says most scholars agree that the painting is by  Leonardo   though some critics have questioned the attribution and some say the extensive restoration muddies the work's authorship.
Christie's capitalized on the public's interest in  Leonardo   considered one of the greatest artists of all time  with a media campaign that labeled the painting "The Last Da Vinci." The work was exhibited in Hong Kong  San Francisco  London and New York before the sale.
In New York  where no museum owns a  Leonardo   art lovers lined up outside Christie's Rockefeller Center headquarters on Tuesday to view "Salvator Mundi."
