Singapore stocks jumped more than 1 per cent this morning, nearing a record high.

As at 11:52 am, the Straits Times Index (STI) rose 1.07 per cent to 3,840.43 points after 511.58 million securities changed hands in the broader market.

That put it on pace to break the last record high of 3,906.16 points reached in 2007.

In terms of companies to watch, we have CapitaLand Investment, because the real asset manager said today that its self-storage platform Extra Space Asia has entered into a partnership with Japan’s largest indoor self-storage manager Ambitious. 

Elsewhere from more on equity movements in South Korea as investors continue to mull a martial law row that stunned the nation, to how Bitcoin topped US$100,000 for the first time on the back of optimism over US President-elect Donald Trump’s pro crypto plans – more international headlines remain in focus. 

Also on deck – how Robinhood Markets is set to expand into Asia next year, with Singapore being its local base in the region.

On Market View, The Evening Runway’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian dived into the details with David Chow, Director Azure Capital.
