Singapore shares slid today even as most Asian markets traded higher.

The Straits Times Index was down 0.65% at 4,890.76 points at 2.51pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$1.17B seen in the broader market.

In terms of counters to watch, we have Keppel, after the firm commenced arbitration proceedings against three entities it entered into an investment with in 2016, concerning a residential and mixed-use development project in Vietnam. 

Elsewhere, from how investors are reacting to an Axios report that Iran seeks to make a deal on opening the Strait of Hormuz first ‌and postpone ⁠nuclear talks, to what to expect ahead of big tech earnings this week, more international and corporate headlines remained in focus.

Also on deck – all about Japan’s Nikkei hitting a record high on earnings, as well as expectations ahead of a slew of global central bank decisions this week.

On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with David Kuo, Co-founder, The Smart Investor.
