Financial Times report four hours ago:
Brexit talks reached a dramatic stand-off in Brussels on Sunday night, after Theresa May warned that a draft treaty to take Britain out of the EU was a “non-starter” and risked tearing her government apart.
Mrs May despatched Dominic Raab, her Brexit secretary, to Brussels to make clear that she could not sign up to the current terms for Britain’s exit at a European Council meeting on Wednesday.
Mr Raab returned home after tense talks with Michel Barnier, the EU chief negotiator, lasting only an hour; no further talks are scheduled ahead of the summit, raising the prospect of a complete breakdown in the Brexit process.
EU leaders may conclude there is not sufficient progress to justify proceeding to a special Brexit summit in November to seal a deal, leaving talks in limbo and Britain heading towards an economically damaging “no deal” exit next March.
A joint Brexit department and Number 10 statement said that despite “real progress in a number of key areas”, “unresolved issues” remained following talks between Mr Raab and Mr Barnier. The UK is “still committed to making progress” at Wednesday’s EU summit.
On a day of high drama, EU and British negotiators in Brussels sketched out the outline of an exit treaty. However, Mr Raab arrived late in the afternoon for talks with Mr Barnier to confirm that it would not fly at Westminster.

Angela Merkel's Bavarian allies suffer worst election result since 1950 -- Telegraph
Reply
ngela Merkel’s Bavarian allies became the latest European party to be caught up in the political upheaval sweeping the continent as they suffered historic losses in regional elections on Sunday.
The Christian Social Union (CSU), which has ruled Bavaria for more than 60 years, recorded its worst result since 1950 and will be forced to find a coalition partner if it is to remain in power.
But for once it was not the populist Right that inflicted the heaviest wounds, but the centre-Left in the form of the Green Party which more than doubled its vote.
The results will send shockwaves through Mrs Merkel’s already fragile coalition government, and add to growing calls within her own party for the veteran chancellor to stand down.

machines programmed to find a pattern within the noise of the market will always do so... even when there is no actual pattern at all.
“You can have one little pin drop that can basically make you lose over 20 years of returns
A favorite "strategy" of machine learning algos has been to buy the dip: for the past decade, BTFD has been the one risk-on strategy that worked without fail.
"Everyone’s buying the dips," Koulajian says. "There are all these people who have learned to basically suppress the vol." Of course, the reason buying the dip works is because everyone believes buying the dip works, i.e., correlation has become causation......................the relentless bull market that made such strategies work so well was driven by central bank liquidity—and that’s being pulled away now.
But the biggest test of just how "artificial" the artificial intelligence in machine learning is, will come when buying the dip - the one strategy that has so far always been profitable - no longer works. It is how the machines respond and adapt to a brave new world without correlation, or causation, backstops that will determine whether a mathematical representation of reality can ultimately outsmart reality itself.

Canada will fully legalize adult marijuana use Wednesday, October 17
Bruce Linton - whose company recently shipped cannabis from Canada to the United States using a yet-undisclosed "DEA-approved partner," told CNBC's Jim Cramer that the "back-of-the-envelope math" pencils out - between therapeutic cannabinoid treatments to a cultural shift from alcohol and tobacco to recreational pot use.
"We disrupt alcohol potentially, cigarettes potentially, in terms of smoking cessation," he told Cramer. "We really disrupt pharmaceutical, because whether or not you're geriatric care, you're dealing with arthritic conditions, you're someone who can't sleep, you're going through an oncology treatment, I think you're going to find cannabinoid therapies really hit there."

Draghi to Rome: Don't expect an ECB rescue if budget talks fail
Investors are worried that the Italian government may take a gamble that running foul of EU budget rules won't incur serious penalties, and that, if things do turn worse for Italian financial markets, they''ll be able to lean on the ECB for support.
CRAZY ECB
ECB should be INDEPENDENT
Draghi should not try to influence Italian politicians .
Draghi really thinks he can do whatever he wants .
