[08:01] {Threei} MOODY'S CHANGES LEHMAN'S RATING OUTLOOK TO NEGATIVE FROM STABLE
[08:01] {Threei} - Today's rating action follows Lehman's reporting of a $2.8B net loss in Q2-08 that resulted from a combination of asset valuation marks and a sharp decline in hedge effectiveness, which had previously buffered Lehman's bottom line from material losses. Moody's notes, however, that the firm would have been just above breakeven in the first quarter of the year if gains on its structured notes were excluded from income.
[08:01] {Threei} - Concurrent with its earnings announcement, Lehman will seek to offset the negative capital impact of the loss by issuing $4B of new common shares and $2B of 3-year mandatory convertible preferred stock. Moody's views the capital raise, in conjunction with balance sheet de-leveraging/de-risking, as a positive step in bolstering both the balance sheet and investor confidence.

[08:05] {Threei} ROYL

[08:05] {Threei} - The terms of the agreement include the sale of 547,945 shares at $7.30 with warrants for an additional 191,781 shares at the same price.
[08:26] {Threei} UPDATE: JURY FINDS EXTENDED TASER DEVICE APPLICATION 15 PERCENT RESPONSIBLE FOR ARREST RELATED DEATH OF ROBERT C. HESTON
[08:26] {Threei} - nnounced that a jury verdict in United States District Court for the Northern District of California in the case of Betty Lou Heston, et al. v. City of Salinas, TASER International, Inc., et al. found that the extended duration of a TASER ECD contributed 15 percent to the death of Robert C. Heston on February 19, 2005. While the jury attributed 85 percent of the cause of death to the
[08:26] {Threei} actions of the decedent, the jury awarded $1,021,000 in compensatory damages and $5,200,000 in punitive damages against TASER International based on alleged negligent failure to warn. The jury verdict was delivered Friday evening.
[08:27] {Threei} to my knowledge this is a first case where Taser is found responsible
[08:27] {Threei} may open a floodgate
[08:27] {Threei} OPEC PRESIDENT: OIL WOULD TRADE AT $70/BARREL WITHOUT SPECULATION; THE WEAK DOLLAR ADDS $40 A BARREL TO THE OIL PRICE
[08:27] {Threei} - Oil supply is largely sufficient; Price rise is not the result of a supply shortage
[08:44] {Threei} quite an interesting read:
[08:44] {Threei} According to the Wall Street Journal, on Friday, the top finance official for the UK's opposition party met with the Fed's Bernanke. The report said that both parties discussed ways to prevent a repeat of the credit crisis. According to sources in Washington, the Financial Times wrote, US officials are concerned about the recent rise in the EUR/USD pair following Trichet's surprise comments last week. Some US officials believe that an ECB rate hike will undermine efforts to prevent the USD from falling further against the EUR. The article adds that currency fluctuations are expected to be discussed by the G8. The UAE Central Bank Chief said overnight that the GCC currency could be delayed beyond 2010, due to inflation. The Central Bank Chief added that the Dollar will remain currency of choice in sovereign foreign exchange reserves. Liam Halligan wrote in the Telegraph overnight that a decade on, the Euro-Zone is still enduring the co-ordination problems that have bedevilled it from the outset.
[08:44] {Threei} France is set to grow almost 2% this year, Italy barely at all. The credit crunch has sent Spain into a tailspin, but Germany will probably muscle its way through. So where should the ECB set interest rates? Trichet hinted last week that with Euro-zone inflation now at 3.6% rates may need to rise. That may suit inflation-averse Germany, but it could crucify debt-driven nations such as Italy, Spain and Ireland. The ECB's policy headaches just got even worse. Trichet's clear signal on rates caused the Euro to rise, which sent the dollar crashing. However, that dollar fall, in turn, sent oil spiraling all the way to $139 a barrel. That, of course, raises Europe's energy costs, so provoking more Euro-zone inflation.
[08:45] {Threei} Trichet merely compounded the problem he was trying to solve. As the downturn deepens, and political tensions rise, the policy needs of the region's very different major economies - to say nothing of the little ones - will somehow need to be reconciled. That is why I genuinely believe the euro may ultimately not survive. Currency unions have endured only when - like the UK and US - they've been fused after generations of political union and held together by a federal tax system. The euro, in contrast, is built on a series of policy conflicts, confusions and even delusions.

[13:19] {Threei} FED'S FISHER: GLOBAL DEMAND PRESSURES ARE PUSHING UP INFLATION, WEAKER DOLLAR COULD FEED BACK INTO PRICES - CNBC INTERVIEW
[13:19] {Threei} - Imperative to deal with new consumer demand for some time.
[13:19] {Threei} - Most concerned about inflation expectations, reiterates Treausry Secretary Paulson's comments with regards to intervention, noting that they never take anything "off the table," including currency intervention.
[13:19] {Threei} - Notes the best way to establish credibility is by anchoring inflation expecations. Controlling inflation is imperative for sustained growth.
[13:19] {Threei} - Time must be allowed for the Fed's liquidity actions to take effect. Borrowers should expect stronger oversight.
[13:19] {Threei} - It would be "disasterious" if the Fed monetized the US national debt.
