Singapore shares fell today as optimism over the US-China tariff truce faded away. 

The Straits Times Index was down 0.39% at 3,865.96 points at 1.43pm with a value turnover of S$703.67M seen in the broader market.
In terms of counters to watch, we have Food Empire, after the company posted a 16.3 per cent rise in its top line to US$136.6 million for the first quarter ended March, as most major markets delivered better performance. 

Elsewhere, from the impact of a US$600 billion US investment by Saudi Arabia, to Microsoft cutting 6,000 workers across the company – more international and corporate headlines remain in focus.

On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Eddy Loh, Chief Investment Officer, Maybank Group Wealth Management.
