The Toronto Stock Exchange registered a triple- digit loss Monday, led by the resource sectors, following a major selloff in the Chinese market and weakness in oil. The S& P/ TSX composite index plunged 184.87 points to close at 14,001.37, while the loonie lost 0.06 of a cent at 76.66 cents U. S. The move in Toronto came after the Shanghai share index posted its biggest one- day plunge since February 2007. Nearly all of the sectors of the TSX closed lower, with the exception of health care. Resources fared especially poorly, with the gold sector losing more than four per cent, while metals and mining lost 3.7 per cent, materials lost 3.1 and energy closed 2.8 per cent lower. China is a major importer of metals and oil, which are heavily weighted sectors on the TSX. In commodity trading, light- crude futures fell US$ 1.10 to US$ 47.39, while natural gas gained two cents to US$ 2.79. Gold - often seen as a safe haven for investors during times of economic turmoil - closed higher, gaining US$ 10.90 to US$ 1,096.50. In New York, the Dow Jones industrial average lost 127.94 points to 17,440.59, while the Nasdaq sank 48.85 points to 5039.78 and the S& P 500 fell 12.01 points to 2067.64.

Teva makes US$ 40- B buy JERUSALEM - Israel's Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. said Monday it is purchasing Dublin- based Allergan PLC's generic pharmaceuticals business for US$ 40.5 billion, in what Israeli analysts called the largest- ever acquisition by an Israeli company. Statements from both companies say the deal will see Allergan receive US$ 33.75 billion in cash and shares of Teva valued Monday at US$ 6.75 billion. In light of the acquisition, Teva said it was withdrawing its US$ 40 billion- plus takeover offer for pharmaceuticals company Mylan N. V. Word of the acquisition saw Teva shares shoot up 13 per cent in preopening trading on the Nasdaq. Trading in Teva shares on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange halted over the news of the sale. The Israeli pharmaceutical giant is the world's largest generic drugmaker. It said in a statement the acquisition would provide patients with more access to affordable medicines. " Through our acquisition of Allergan Generics, we will establish a strong foundation for long- term, sustainable growth, anchored by leading generics capabilities and a world- class late- stage pipeline that will accelerate our ability to build an exceptional portfolio of products - both in generics and specialty as well as the intersection of the two," Erez Vigodman, president and CEO of Teva, said in a statement. No TV with your Tims? TORONTO - Executives at Tim Hortons are reconsidering whether it's worth the risk of flavouring your coffee break with potential controversy. After the restaurant chain was dragged into a clash between environmentalists and oil industry supporters last month, Daniel Schwartz, CEO of Tim Hortons' parent company Restaurant Brands, said Monday the company is reviewing its Tims TV in- store digital screens. " We're now taking a look at the whole Tims TV program and what makes sense for the brand," Schwartz said in an interview with The Canadian Press. " As with many things in the restaurant, we explore what's best from time to time." The review comes after Tim Hortons was put in the hot seat for giving advertisement space to pipeline giant Enbridge on its in- store digital screens. The commercials angered environmentalists, who launched an online petition to get them pulled. When Tim Hortons yanked the Enbridge ads, some oil- sector supporters called it an insult to one of Canada's biggest industries and launched their own boycott. The conflict showed the potential dangers of a brand as recognizable as Tim Hortons selling ad space to companies that could rankle its customers. The coffee and doughnut chain began experimenting with Tims TV last year before rolling out screens at restaurants across the country. - staff, the news services BUSINESS Watch A THENS - Greece's government on Monday launched complex bailout negotiations with creditors, but faced rebuke following revelations former finance minister Yanis Varoufakis formed a secret committee to plan for the possible conversion of euros into drachmas " at a drop of a hat." Finance Minister Euclid Tsakalotos said late Monday meetings in Athens had begun between Greek officials and negotiating teams representing creditors, with talks to intensify today, paving the way for higher- level discussions, possibly by the end of the week. Before the talks started in Athens, a recording of Varoufakis discussing a parallel currency plan was made public. Opposition parties have criticized Varoufakis and have urged Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras to explain to lawmakers what he knew of his former finance minister's actions. In the recording of a telephone briefing for investors on July 16 in the wake of his resignation days earlier, Varoufakis claimed he and a childhood friend who was a computer expert hacked into his ministry's computer systems as a first step to creating " a parallel banking system" in the event Greek banks were shuttered. The Greek banks were closed June 29 to avoid a bank run amid fears Greece was heading for a euro exit. In theory, a parallel system formed from the effective cloning of tax accounts would have allowed the finance ministry to continue payments in the form of socalled IOUs. Varoufakis said he had been authorized by Tsipras to undertake the planning prior to the general election in January when the radical left Syriza party swept to power. And he insisted his actions were legal, in the public interest and aimed at keeping the country in the 19- country eurozone. In essence, the plan, which Tsipras ultimately blocked, would have created a " functioning parallel system" to give the government " some breathing space." " It would be euro- denominated but at the drop of a hat it could be developed to a new drachma," Varoufakis said. Varoufakis confirmed the authenticity of the recording, which was released by the briefing organizers, London- based Official Monetary and Financial Institutions Forum. The revelation Varoufakis was working on a Plan B over Greece's future was one of many in a wide- ranging discussion on the Greek crisis. He also said German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble wanted Greece to leave the euro but his boss, Chancellor Angela Merkel, was against so- called Grexit. The recording prompted an outcry among opposition parties. The main conservative opposition, New Democracy, accused Varoufakis of " dark methods that threaten democracy" and summoned Tsipras to brief parliament. - The Associated Press Plan B revealed as Greek bailout talks launched Kelly Taylor Ex- finance minister eyed parallel system B_ 05_ Jul- 28- 15_ FP_ 01. indd B5 7/ 27/ 15 6: 24: 13 PM ;
