China companies may be eyeing Singapore again - but could a new wave of listings finally reignite excitement on SGX for retail investors?

Hosted by Michelle Martin with guest Jason Saw, Group Head of Investment Banking at CGS International, this episode explores why Southeast Asian deal activity is rebounding after a softer stretch.

Michelle and Jason unpack the AI-driven semiconductor boom, rising M&A appetite, and why Singapore is positioning itself as a capital markets hub amid growing global competition.

They also examine whether more Chinese companies listing on SGX could deepen liquidity, reshape investor sentiment and create fresh opportunities for local investors.

If ASEAN markets are entering a new investment cycle, where could the next winners emerge?

Could the bond market smack down the exuberant US stock market? 

Hosted by Michelle Martin, this episode of Market View explores whether surging US bond yields could become the biggest threat yet to richly valued equity markets ahead of a crucial earnings week featuring Nvidia, Walmart and Home Depot.

Michelle unpacks what the bond market may be signalling about inflation, borrowing costs and investor confidence, while examining the widening AI ecosystem beyond Nvidia through companies like Cisco, Vertiv and Arista Networks.

She also looks at what discount retailers TJX and Ross Stores may reveal about the health of the US consumer and the rise of the “trade-down economy” as shoppers hunt for value in an uncertain environment.
