The Singapore Straits Times Index (STI) set a record today as it crossed the 4,000-mark for the first time in early trade. 

The index hit 4005.18 points shortly after the market opened. This surpassed its previous record of 3,991 points, clocked on the 27th of March.

In terms of counters to watch today, we have Sinarmas Land, after an entity controlled by Indonesia’s billionaire Widjaja family – Lyon Investments – made a voluntary unconditional cash offer for all the shares in Sinarmas Land that it does not already own at S$0.31 apiece.

Elsewhere, from Trump’s tariff plans propelling the safe haven gold to a record high to Hong Kong’s derivative trading surging to highs previously not seen – more international headlines remain in focus.

On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Benjamin Goh, Head of Research and Investor Education, SIAS.
