Singapore shares dipped today amid a mixed session in Asia.

The Straits Times Index was down 0.05% at 4,241.38 points at 2.28pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$789.47M seen in the broader market.

In terms of counters to watch for today, we have Prudential, after the firm’s new business profit rose to US$1.26 billion for its first half ended Jun 30, from US$1.12 billion in the year-ago period. 

Elsewhere, from how US President Donald Trump’s 50% tariffs on Indian goods came into effect today, to a lookahead to Nvidia’s earnings due overnight, more international and corporate headlines remained in focus.

On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Jeremy Tan, CEO, Tiger Fund Management.
