Singapore shares moved higher today even as regional investors remained downbeat given US tariff concerns. 

The Straits Times Index was up 1.18% at 3,764.16 points at 2.09pm Singapore time with a value turnover of S$647.77M in the broader market.

In terms of companies to watch, we have City Developments Ltd, after the developer responded to a wide range of questions from shareholders spanning its share price decline to queries from the Securities Investors Association (Singapore).

Elsewhere, from movements in the US dollar after US President Donald Trump contemplated whether he could fire Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, to more on the key economic data points to watch this week – more international headlines remain in focus. 

On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with David Kuo, Co-founder, The Smart Investor.
