When tensions rise, gold usually shines. But this time… not quite.

With the US blockade of the Strait of Hormuz pushing oil prices sharply higher, you’d expect investors to pile into gold. Instead, prices are slipping, and that’s raising a big question…

Is gold losing its safe-haven status, or is something else at play here?

On Wealth Tracker, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Robin Tsui, APAC Gold Strategist at State Street Investment Management, to find out more.

A $2 charge for children drinking plain water has sparked an intense debate in Singapore. After a family was billed under a no-outside-drinks policy, a restaurant saw its Google rating plunge overnight amid a wave of online backlash.

On What’s Trending, Hongbin Jeong and Nadiah Koh unpack why opinions are so divided, and whether ‘review bombing’ is a fair form of consumer protest or a step too far. 

Next up, we take to the skies. After a nightmare economy flight experience, a new idea from Air New Zealand catches our attention. The upcoming “Skynest” bunk bed concept promises real, lie-flat sleep for economy passengers… but at nearly US$500 for a few hours, is it the future of flying or just another expensive upsell?

Nearly one in five Singapore workers is overqualified for their jobs, but most aren’t stuck there by accident.

New data from MOM shows 19.4% of resident workers in 2025 hold qualifications above job requirements, up from a decade ago. But the surprising part? Most say it’s by choice.

Other findings from NTUC and SUTD echo the same trend, pointing to a growing group of workers deliberately taking on roles below their qualifications.

So what’s behind this shift and what does it say about how Singaporeans view work today?

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Professor Lawrence Loh, Department of Strategy and Policy, National University of Singapore, to unpack what this means for Singapore’s evolving labour landscape.
