Singapore stocks started the day on a muted note, after US indices and Europe’s main stock index fell overnight.

In early trade, the Straits Times Index (STI) rose 0.02 per cent to 3,593.18 points after 17.8 million securities changed hands in the broader market.

In terms of companies to watch, we have Oiltek International. The renewable energy solutions provider said today that it secured new contracts worth approximately RM19.5 million (S$5.9 million) from Africa, Central America and Malaysia. 

Elsewhere, it’s all about the US Federal Reserve from its outsized, 50-basis point interest rate cut to its dot plot of future rates which is set to bring the range to 2.75 to 3 per cent in 2026. 

Also on deck – SK Hynix shares tumbling on a double downgrade at Morgan Stanley. Nintendo sueing Pocketpair and all about Boeing!

On Market View, The Evening Runway’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian dived into the details with Terence Wong, CEO, Azure Capital.

For Singaporeans who grew up in this country, we pretty much know the ‘formula’ to succeeding in life: acing the system through good grades and then finding a decent job. This is, however, not how life has been for Workato’s CEO, Vijay Tella. 

The realities of growing up in India during the 50s and 60s shaped his nuanced outlook on how societal factors need to work hand-in-hand with a certain degree of luck for one to have a ‘decent’ life. 

Vijay has led a few start-ups to success, and he prides this streak of excellence to the workplace culture that he brings to these companies.

On R.I.C.H, Hongbin Jeong and Roshan Gidwani speaks with Vijay Tella, CEO, Workato to find out more about his perspective towards life, from the boy who grew up in hardship in India and to the CEO now running a business.
