Singapore shares opened lower today, tracking losses in global markets following ongoing banking woes worldwide.

The Straits Times Index fell 0.32 per cent in early trade to 3,173.17 points after 46.3 million securities worth S$55.1 million changed hands. 

In terms of companies to watch, we have Yangzijiang Shipbuilding, after a unit of the company that used to hold 43 subsidiaries has been ordered by Singapore’s High Court to wind up. What’s happening there?

Meanwhile, investors continue to mull the state of the global financial sector after news that UBS had agreed to buy rival Credit Suisse in an eleventh-hour merger by Swiss authorities. But to what extent will this prevent a crisis of confidence from spilling over into the broader financial system?

On Market View, the Drive Time team posed these questions to David Kuo, Co-founder, The Smart Investor.
