Global oil supply to outpace demand in 2014 ? IEA ? RT Business

Published time: July 11, 2013 13:59 AFP Photo/Sara Francis

Supplies from outside the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) will surge by 1.3 million barrels a day amid increased output in North America.

International oil consumption will climb to 1.2 million barrels a day next year, up from 930,000 a day in 2013, the IEA said in its first monthly report with forecasts for 2014.

The BRIC countries, as well as other rapidly expanding economies, will be the primary force in the global oil market next year, pushing demand to a record high level, International Energy Agency (IEA) data showed.

The IEA predicted that in 2014 emerging economies ? such as Brazil, Russia, China and India - will drive international demand to a record 92.0 million barrels per day, or 1.3 percent from the current year, the report said in data released Thursday.

"Emerging markets and developing economies are forecast to lead demand growth in 2014," the IEA said.

This would more than offset continued lack of demand in the 34 countries of the OECD, with China predicted to remain "the main engine of demand growth in 2014."

The agency said improving prospects for global economic growth ? and despite increasing efficiency in energy use in advanced countries - would be the primary engine for boosting demand.

Unseasonably cold weather was also responsible for boosting the demand forecast.?

The wild card in the data comes from North America, specifically the United States, the world?s largest energy consumer, where oil production is "set to grow strongly."

Supply from other countries outside OPEC would also rise, the agency forecast.

The IEA report, however, pointed to global hotspots that could potentially disrupt vital supply routes, for example around the Gulf of Suez and the Persian Gulf.

"Observers worry that the political confrontation in Egypt, like the Syrian civil war, could drag on and worsen before it gets better, and the instability could theoretically threaten production and transit through the Suez Canal," the IEA said.

Unrest in the past has disrupted supplies from Libya, Nigeria and Iraq, the IEA noted.

Tesla to join the Nasdaq 100 as Oracle departs for the NYSE

As of Monday, July 15th, Tesla Motors will be included in the Nasdaq 100, a list of the largest non-financial stocks on Nasdaq's index. A spot in that elite group opened up when Oracle announced that it would be moving to the New York Stock Exchange, making it inelegible for inclusion on Nasdaq. The news seemed to please shareholders, and at the time of this writing, Tesla's stock had surged ahead nearly 2 percent. The company's entry into the Nasdaq 100 is a sure sign that its forward trajectory is nigh unstoppable -- at least for now. With an overall stock gain of nearly 260 percent in 2013, Tesla Motors just keeps on truckin'.

Fantasy Football: It's Never TOO Early to Start Your Draft

In a sport where many people claim to be experts, each fantasy football season brings about a slew of unpredictable events. A year ago, Adrian Peterson was a huge injury risk who nobody wanted to touch in the first round of drafts. He, of course, proceeded to rush for more than 2,000 yards and came up just 9 yards short of breaking the all-time NFL single-season rushing record. It's never too early to start preparing for your draft.

Offseason Transactions

The 2013 offseason saw several stars from 2012 change teams. Perhaps the most notable move is Percy Harvin's trade to Seattle, giving one of football's most dangerous weapons an equally dangerous offense to work with. Harvin was always a valuable player, but in Minnesota his potential was stunted by weak quarterback play. In Seattle, Russell Wilson and Marshawn Lynch already comprise a top-notch offense, making Harvin's ceiling seemingly limitless.

Meanwhile, Wes Welker's quarterback situation barely changes as he moves west from New England to Denver. Peyton Manning didn't miss a beat in his first year with the Broncos, and Welker now gives the Broncos arguably the best trio of receivers in the league. Denver may suffer the proverbial "too many mouths to feed" syndrome, but the offense will put up points regardless. Danny Amendola, Welker's replacement in New England, should top last year's impressive totals if he stays healthy (a big IF).

Other potential impact moves include:

  • Mike Wallace to Miami: A potential downgrade at QB, but Wallace is clearly the star of the show in Miami. He'll be the team's deep-threat, while Brian Hartline and his freshly-signed $30 million contract, is a solid PPR (points per reception) option.
  • Running Back Roulette: Steven Jackson moved to Atlanta and Reggie Bush signed with Detroit. Jackson's best years are behind him, but he still proved effective in St. Louis last year. Bush proved he could carry a full load the past couple seasons in Miami, but he may lose goal-line touches to Mikel LeShoure.

Rookies

It's tough for any 21-year-old to go straight into riches and media stardom, as is required of star NFL rookies. Worse, it's beyond difficult to figure out which rookies will produce for your fantasy team. Most "experts" correctly predicted a strong rookie campaign from Doug Martin in 2012, but very few even thought about Alfred Morris. And nobody saw Russell Wilson's impeccable 2012 coming. Again, its a crapshoot.

Tavon Austin seems the perfect, faster replacement of Danny Amendola in St. Louis. If Sam Bradford targets him like he did Amendola, Austin could have a very solid year. DeAndre Hopkins, Houston's first-round pick, is in the best overall situation for a rookie wide receiver, as he'll see single coverage all season if Andre Johnson stays healthy.

Running backs are usually the most appealing rookie options because they're guaranteed touches and often play right away. Montee Ball (Denver), Eddie Lacy (Green Bay) and Le'veon Bell (Pittsburgh) were all drafted by teams that desperately need help at running back. Bell probably has the best chance to be this year's Doug Martin with Rashard Mendenhall now in Arizona, but Ball and Lacy, again, fell into great situations too.

Draft Strategy

According to CBS Sports, there is only one non-RB (Calvin Johnson) that is consistently going top-10 of standard scoring mock drafts as of early mid-May. In other words, its an absolute must to get at least one running back in the first or second round or come playoff time you'll be watching from home on tv.

The draft is all about value, so just keep an eye on runs at certain positions. If three or four quarterbacks are selected consecutively in Round 4, it may be time for you to pounce as well to get one of those top-15 guys. And never get a kicker before the final round.

Debt collection firm to pay largest-ever FTC penalty for allegedly harassing consumers

Red Tape Chronicles

5 hours ago

Massive debt collection firm Expert Global Solutions has agreed to pay a $3.2 million civil penalty to settle charges it violated consumers' rights when attempting to collect debts, according to the Federal Trade Commission. The agency said it was the largest settlement ever obtained from a third-party collection firm, and it described Expert Global ? formerly known as NCO Group ? as the "world's largest debt collection operation," with 32,000 employees and $1.2 billion in annual revenues.

In its complaint, the FTC alleges that Expert Global called consumers late at night, early in the morning, at their workplaces, and even after agents for the firm promised to stop calling.

Consumers who said they had been reached in error by the firm, who did not owe a debt, were also called repeatedly, the FTC said.

"Defendants (called) persons repeatedly or continuously with the intent to annoy, harass, or abuse," the complaint said. The firm also left voice mail messages for target consumers that disclosed the existence of a debt to third parties.

The firm must now pay the penalty and agree to end such practices, which the FTC says violated the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act.

"We are pleased to have resolved this matter," the company said in a statement. "We cooperated fully with the FTC's 2010 investigation and have already implemented systems and procedures to help address their areas of concern."

As part of the agreement, the firm neither admits nor denies the allegations.

Expert Global operates under a number of brand names, including: ALW Sourcing, LLC; NCO Financial Systems, Inc.; and Transworld Systems, Inc., which also does business as North Shore Agency, Inc. It has offices in the U.S., Canada, Barbados, India, the Philippines and Panama, according to the FTC.

The agency has helpful tips for dealing with debt collectors on its website.
