PROBLEM: LONDON (Reuters) - Just hours after a Brexit deal crumbled  British Prime Minister Theresa May came under pressure on Tuesday from opposition parties and even some allies to soften the EU divorce by keeping Britain in the single market and customs union after Brexit.

 May’s  ministers said they were confident they would soon secure an exit deal  though opponents scolded May for a chaotic day in Brussels which saw a choreographed attempt to showcase the progress of Brexit talks collapse at the last minute.
Scottish Conservative leader Ruth Davidson  who has been tipped as a potential future leader of May’s party  also suggested  May  should consider keeping the United Kingdom in both the single market and customs union.
 May  has repeatedly said Britain will leave both the single market and the customs union when the United Kingdom ends its membership of the EU at 2300 GMT on March 29  2019  though she has called for a bespoke economic partnership.

PROBLEM: (Reuters) - Saks Fifth Avenue owner Hudsonâs Bay Co (HBC.TO) said on Wednesday it had received a bid for its German department store chain Kaufhof from  Signa  Holding  the Austrian property and retail group that owns Karstadt  another German retail chain.
The announcement came after Reuters reported earlier on Wednesday  citing sources  that  Signa  had made a 3 billion euro ($3.5 billion) offer for Kaufhof. Hudsonâs Bay did not comment on the bidâs value  and  Signa  declined to comment.
 Signaâs offer  comes one week after Hudsonâs Bay agreed to sell its flagship Lord & Taylor building in New York for $850 million to WeWork Cos.
The Reuters sources said that  Signa  expects Toronto-based Hudsonâs Bay  which has been reluctant so far to engage in negotiations to sell Kaufhof  to respond to  the offer  by the middle of November.
Hudsonâs Bay called  the offer  incomplete  non-binding and unsolicited  with no evidence of financing.
The sources said that in its offer letter to Hudsonâs Bay   Signa  stated  its  bid for Kaufhof would not be contingent on any third-party financing  since  it  already has 700 million euros in approved financing from European banks  and also has cash available from a 1 billion euro equity raise last month.
 Signa  has also offered to assume all of Kaufhofâs liabilities  including a 1.34 billion euro real estate loan by German bank LBBW  the sources added.
Hudsonâs Bay said it plans to review  the offer  in due course. It added that its European business is an important element of the companyâs strategy  and that it remains focused on executing its strategy and plans for the upcoming holiday season.
At a valuation of 3 billion euros including debt  Signaâs bid values Kaufhofâs real estate at 2.63 billion euros  the sources said.
Signa tried to buy Kaufhof in 2015  but Hudsonâs Bay outbid it by paying 2.5 billion euros including debt for the German chain and its Belgian subsidiary. Since then  Kaufhofâs finances have deteriorated  to the point where vendors are finding it more difficult to find trade credit insurance to make shipments.
âHudsonâs Bay board of directors should  consistent with its fiduciary duties  seriously consider the reported  Signa  fully financed 3.0 billion euro offer for Hudsonâs Bay European business  which is above the Companyâs purchase price and stated net asset value â Lands and Buildings CEO Jonathan Litt said in a statement.
 Privately held Signa   founded 17 years ago by property developer Rene Benko  now runs more than 125 retail locations in Northern Europe  generating annual revenue of about 3.8 billion euros  according to  its  website.  It  owns a big real estate portfolio with a gross asset value of more than 10 billion euros.
 Signa  bought Karstadt from the brink of bankruptcy in 2014 for the nominal consideration of just one euro from  its  majority owner Nicolas Berggruen  son of an international art dealer.
 Signa  restored Karstadt to profitability: realigning  its  offerings closer to the tastes of German consumers  cutting costs and making operations more efficient. Karstadt and Kaufhof are now the two largest department store operators in Germany.
Last month   Signa  said  it  had completed an equity raise of 1 billion euros  giving  it  more firepower to pursue acquisitions.

SOLUTION: Karstadt owner Signa makes offer for Hudson's Bay's Kaufhof

PROBLEM: Shaun White Wins Gold In Halfpipe At The Winter Olympics
Updated at 10:15 p.m.  ET
Shaun White  pulled off a gold-medal comeback in the halfpipe  and Japan's Ayumu Hirano won silver on the strength of a phenomenal second run.
CORRECTION: An early version of this story reported that  White  had won silver — that was reported after the second run had completed. On his third run   White  won gold.
 White  missed out on a medal back in 2014  when  he  was hurt at the Sochi Games.  He 's now the only snowboarder ever to win three gold medals at the Olympics. And  he  did it by winning the 100th gold medal for the U.S. Winter Olympic team.
After the Japanese snowboarder's rousing run  the pressure shifted to James and  White . James seemed to take a very deep breath before he set off on his second run. The first section was great — but he couldn't get a clean landing on one of his final tricks.  White  came out with energy and speed — but  he  fell midway through  and mustered only 55 points.
The situation reversed in the third and final run  when  White  earned a 97.75 and both of  his  top rivals fell during  their  attempts.
This is the second Olympic medal for Hirano; he won silver in Sochi. He is also the reigning X Games champion in the halfpipe  having won that title last month  in a competition that  White  skipped.
 White  led a group of four American snowboarders who qualified for the finals of the men's halfpipe at Phoenix Snow Park in Pyeongchang; joining  him  were Ben Ferguson  Chase Josey  and Jake Pates.
 Ferguson  cleaned up  his  second run after a fall in the first. And after a strong final run earned  him  a 90.75   he  finished 4th; Josey was 6th and Pates was 8th.
