Singapore shares began the day with gains after global equities ended mixed overnight.  

In early trade, the Straits Times Index (STI) advanced 0.4 per cent to 3,151.54 points after 18 million securities changed hands in the broader market.

In terms of companies to watch for today, we have Keppel, after the asset manager said its Data Centre Fund II signed a framework agreement with Japan-listed property player Mitsui Fudosan to purchase a data centre in western Tokyo. 

Elsewhere, from a rally in Foxconn Industrial amid the global artificial intelligence frenzy to what to watch ahead of February’s US consumer price index release and Jollibee targeting exponential growth in China to triple its profits  – more international headlines remain in focus. 

On Market View, The Evening Runway’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Toby Gresham, Investment Counselor Team Lead, Citi Private Bank.
