Singapore shares inched higher today to track gains seen across Asia. 

The Straits Times Index was up 0.15% at 4,577.44 points at 3.11pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$749.75M seen in the broader market.

In terms of counters to watch for today, we have Stoneweg Europe Stapled Trust. 

That’s after the managers of Stoneweg Europe Stapled Trust said it has entered into an agreement to divest a non-core office property in Italy for a consideration of 34 million euros (S$51.4 million).

Elsewhere, from how the Bank of Japan hiked interest rates to a 30-year high of 0.75 per cent, to how US President Donald Trump’s administration has reportedly launched a review that could result in the first shipments to China of Nvidia’s second-most powerful AI chips, more international headlines remained in focus.
