Singapore shares fell today following losses in US and Europe markets.  

The Straits Times Index was down 0.3 per cent to 3,272.89 points in early trade after 63.8 million securities changed hands. 

In terms of companies to watch, Olam Group posted a fall in net profit for the second half year ended December, to S$200 million. That’s down 24.5 per cent from levels seen in H2 2021.

What does this mean for the company especially with the planned IPO of Olam Agri in Singapore and Saudi Arabia? 

Meanwhile, we’re also tracking electronics manufacturing services provider Venture Corporation, which had on Friday announced a 13.8 per cent increase in net profit for the second half ended December. But what’s the outlook for Singapore’s electronics manufacturing cluster ahead?

On Market View, the Drive Time team got down to the details with David Kuo, Co-founder, The Smart Investor.
