[EX Q]: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Yngve Slyngstad is Neutral . 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]: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Sebastian Kurz is Negative . Early exit polls of Austria's Oct. 15 election  suggest  Sebastian Kurz   will take  his  party into a very narrow majority — positioning  himself  as the next chancellor. The 31-year old conservative is known for  his  pledge to take the country into a more hard line stance against the influx of refugees and migrants. (Reuters)
Early exit polls of Austria's Oct. 15 election  suggest  Sebastian Kurz   will take  his  party into a very narrow majority — positioning  himself  as the next chancellor.

The result puts the 31-year-old foreign minister and People’s Party leader  Sebastian Kurz  in line to become Austria’s next chancellor after a campaign in which he emphasized the need to strengthen border controls  reduce caps on refugees and slash benefits for newcomers.
“I’ll fight with all my strength for change in this country ”  Kurz  told cheering supporters — many clad in turquoise  the color  he  adopted to signal a new era for the People’s Party after decades of identification with black. “There’s a lot to do.”

But unlike in those nations  in Austria the far right is expected to become part of the government.  Kurz  will need a coalition partner to form a majority in the parliament  and the Freedom Party is considered the most likely option.
If  he  goes that route  it would end a “grand coalition” between Austria’s center left and center right that has led the country for the past decade  and for much of its modern history.
Some on Sunday called on  Kurz  to avoid teaming up with the Freedom Party.
“We strongly urge  Mr. Kurz  to form a coalition of centrist parties and not be beholden to a party of the far-right in  his  new coalition government ” European Jewish Congress President Moshe Kantor said in a statement. “A party which has run on a platform of xenophobic intolerance and the targeting of immigrants must not be granted a seat at the governing table.”
Kern hinted that the party would be willing to serve in a coalition government. But analysts consider such a possibility unlikely given the rightward tilt of the electorate — as well as the bad blood that developed between the two establishment parties after a scandal involving fake Facebook pages that smeared  Kurz  and were attributed to a Social Democratic operative.
The elevation of  Kurz  to chancellor would put another young and charismatic leader at the helm of a European government  after the election of 39-year-old Emmanuel Macron in France.
Kurz  though ideologically to the right of Macron  modeled much of his campaign after the Frenchman’s. The Austrian politician styled his run for the nation’s highest office as a movement  not a conventional election  and personalized his party  informally renaming it “the Sebastian Kurz List.”
Kritzinger said  Kurz ’s opponents were flummoxed by how to counteract the charismatic People’s Party leader  who took the reins in the party this year and promptly remade it as  his  own.
“From a rhetoric perspective   he ’s an absolute talent ” Kritzinger said. “The other parties didn’t know how to deal with  him .”

[EX Q]: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Mamadou Tandja is Negative . Over a span of several months  71-year-old President Mamadou Tandja has imposed rule by decree  cracked down on opponents and the press  and dismantled parliament and the constitutional court  which oppose his plan and together represented the last real checks on his rule.
 On Tuesday  a controversial referendum could remove the last obstacle in Tandja's way -- the constitution -- replacing it with a new one that does away with term-limits and simultaneously gives him greatly boosted powers and an unprecedented three-year extension of his rule.
 "He took the oath of office swearing on the Quran to protect our nation's democratic institutions " opposition leader Mahamadou Issoufou said. "But instead  he is destroying them."
 Opponents say Tandja is clinging to power so his family  clan and entourage can benefit from an influx of wealth from large-scale projects that are under way. Tandja denies it and says he is only obeying the will of his people  who he feels want him to finish projects to develop one of the poorest nations in the world.
 "The people see the future and they are asking their president to continue to serve  so he completes this work " Tandja told The Associated Press in an interview Friday at his residence  a complex of low-rise sand-brown buildings surrounded by palm trees. "But the constitution does not permit me to stay ... that's why the people demand a new one. We need to find a way."
 "It's an existential problem for many African heads of state " said Mahamane Ousmane  who led parliament until Tandja dissolved it in May because lawmakers opposed the referendum. "They can't imagine a normal life outside the palace. They say  'Will I be in exile? Will I be in prison? What will I do?'"
 Ousmane defeated Tandja in a 1993 poll and served as president until he was toppled in a 1996 coup. Today he lives in a modest home on a dirt road in the sleepy capital.
 Tandja  however  told The AP he was "afraid of nothing."
 Any influence foreign donors may have has been undermined by several huge new projects that have buoyed Tandja and are unlikely to grind to a halt. Among them: a US$5 billion (euro3.5 billion) deal with China to build an oil refinery and extract new crude from the desert  a US$1.7 billion (euro1.2 billion) accord with French nuclear giant Areva to build the world's second biggest uranium mine and a hydroelectric dam financed with US$50 million (euro35 million) from the Islamic Development Bank.
 Tandja claims his actions are legal  but opponents say he could only rule by decree if Niger was under threat and parliament was in place to safeguard against abuse. Tandja dissolved the constitutional court -- the only body that could judge such disputes -- after it ruled the referendum illegal. He then replaced it with another court whose members he appointed.
 The proposed new constitution would give him authority to name one third of a new 60-seat senate and the power to jail journalists who are deemed security threats without warning.
 A roadside florist  Hama Alhassane  hasn't seen the draft constitution and doesn't know how it differs from the current one. But "whatever Tandja wants  I will do " the 23-year-old said. "Because he is the state and we must do what the state demands."
 State media only carry pro-referendum messages. A private TV station that broadcast a statement critical of Tandja was temporarily shut down.
 Tandja vowed to respect the outcome  telling The AP: "If they say no  I will go."
