Right Business: How this company is turning empty walls into thriving farms

Tensions in the Middle East have reached a boiling point. Then, just as suddenly, a pause.

US President Donald Trump says a ceasefire between Israel and Iran is now "in effect" after a night of deadly crossfire.

But on the ground, clarity is hard to come by.

Conflicting reports, fresh accusations, and renewed threats are casting doubt on whether the ceasefire is holding - or ever truly began.

So what’s really happening behind the headlines? And how fragile is this latest truce?

On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Richard Jackson, Professor of Peace and Conflict Studies, University of Otago, for more insights beyond the headlines.

The Big Story: Trump announces Israel-Iran ceasefire. But is the truce already cracking?

Singapore shares went  up today even as investors remained laser focused on the situation in the Middle East.

The Straits Times Index was up 0.4% at 3,894.86 points at 1.33pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$668.91M seen in the broader market.

In terms of companies to watch, we have OCBC. That’s after the lender said yesterday that it has no intention to convert its Class C non-voting Great Eastern shares into ordinary shares when they come up for conversion in five years as this will result in the insurer losing its free float again.

Elsewhere, from easing fears of an energy market shock following US President Donald Trump’s announcement of a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, to how Nvidia’s chief Jensen Huang started selling the chipmaker’s stock under a US$865 million plan – more international and corporate headlines remain in focus.

On Market View, Money Matter’s finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Chong Ser Jing, Co-founder and Portfolio Manager, Compounder Fund.

Emerging markets are on a hot streak, with currencies climbing, local bonds attracting fresh inflows, and equities outperforming their developed market counterparts. The rally has sparked optimism among global investors—but it’s also raising eyebrows.

Beneath the surface lies a complex mix of geopolitical flashpoints, trade policy uncertainty, and stretched valuations, all of which could challenge the staying power of recent gains.

Can this momentum hold as we move deeper into the year? Are investors overlooking key risks in their chase for returns? And what might tip the balance between resilience and reversal in emerging markets?
