Singapore shares were little moved today as investors kicked off the last trading week of 2025.
The Straits Times Index was up 0.04% at 4,638.14 points at 2.47pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$423.31M seen in the broader market.
In terms of counters to watch, we have Keppel and Keppel DC Reit. That's after the two entities said on Dec 26 that the authorities have conditionally green-lit a 10-year lease extension for Keppel Data Centre Campus, which is owned by a Keppel-led joint venture (JV).
Elsewhere, from how China is about to start paying interest on its official digital currency, to how Bitcoin rose in Asia trading to top US$90,000, more international headlines remained in focus.
