Money Matters with Hongbin Jeong and Chua Tian Tian

Singapore shares dipped today as optimism surrounding cooling global trade tensions fizzled off.

The Straits Times Index was down 0.18% at 3,884.83 points at about 12.17pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$500.29M in the broader market.

In terms of counters to watch today, we have Singapore Airlines. The company posted a 65 per cent rise in net profit to S$2 billion for the second half of FY2025 ended March. This lifted the group’s full-year net profit to a record S$2.8 billion.

Elsewhere, from Singapore’s key exports jumping 12.4 per cent on the year, to Walmart’s CEO warning of price increases caused by US President Donald Trump’s tariffs on imports – more economic and corporate headlines remained in focus.

Also on deck – a breakdown of Chinese big tech earnings out this week.

On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Benjamin Goh, Head of Research and Investor Education, SIAS.
