Singapore equities began trading in negative territory today, after US stocks recovered from an early morning fall to close higher overnight. 

In early trade, the Straits Times Index (STI) dipped 0.1 per cent to 3,335.82 points after 34.7 million securities changed hands in the broader market.

In terms of companies to watch, we have for you OCBC. The lender has priced 500 million euros (S$732.8 million) of fixed-rate covered bonds due 2027 under its US$10 billion global covered bond programme. 

Elsewhere from Japan’s base pay rising the most since 1994 to Nike reportedly laying off workers in its European headquarters – more corporate and international headlines remain in focus.

Also on deck – how Bitcoin has again poked above the US$70,000 level and flirted with a gain for a fifth straight session.

On Market View, The Evening Runway’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Thilan Wickramasinghe, Head of Equity Research, Maybank Securities.
