Singapore stocks opened lower today amid a mixed performance in global markets. 

In early trade, the Straits Times Index (STI) was down 1.2 per cent to 3,253.47 points after 53.4 million securities changed hands in the broader market.

In terms of companies to watch for today, we have  Olam Group, after the agri food giant posted on Friday an 88.8 per cent decline in net profit to S$48 million, due to a one-off exceptional loss on lower almond yields in Australia. 

Elsewhere, from China’s Country Garden suspending onshore bond trading to Rakuten Group’s shares surging on narrowing losses at its cash bleeding mobile unit – more international headlines are in focus.

On Market View, the Drive Time team unpacked the developments with Chin Hui Leong, Co-founder, The Smart Investor.
