Money and Me: Shutdowns, AI, and Safe-Haven Surges

Is the world quietly walking away from U.S. tech - and should you?

In this episode, hosted by Michelle Martin, we unpack the US$52 billion exodus from U.S. equities - the fastest in 16 years - where is smart money going?

Guest Swapnil Mishra, author of Investing for the Clueless, Reckless and Overly Cautious, explains what “rotation” really means beneath the headlines.

We examine whether U.S. tech is simply expensive - or structurally peaking after years of dominance. Nvidia posts a record US$68.1 billion in revenue while defending AI’s long-term case, even as

Salesforce slides on fears of AI-driven job disruption. Are markets pricing in consumer stress and white-collar layoffs or is that a myth?

Money and Me: Where is smart investor money going?

A US$100 billion media deal collapses, a gold miner surges 400%, and Nvidia still can’t satisfy investors - what’s really driving markets?

In this episode, hosted by Michelle Martin with Ryan Huang, we unpack Netflix’s decision to walk away from acquiring Warner Bros. Discovery after a superior cash bid from Paramount, and what that means for streaming economics and consumers.

We track CNMC Goldmine’s near-400% profit surge as gold prices power earnings - and ask whether momentum can last after a 500% share price run.

Our UP or DOWN segment ranks Singapore earnings from Soilbuild’s 84% jump to Centurion’s 82% slide - separating operating strength from one-off gains.

In the US, Nvidia drops despite strong results, dragging the NASDAQ lower, while the STI slips below 5,000 with UOL and City Developments leading losses.

We close with market breadth, leadership shifts, and what this rotation tells long-term investors.

Plus: a quick cultural pivot with the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame nominees - because markets, like music, are about timing.

Market View: Netflix walks away, Gold Miner Rising & Earnings Scorecards

When the Dow drops 800 points in a day, is it panic - or opportunity knocking?

In this episode, hosted by Michelle Martin, we break down the brutal US selloff triggered by fresh 15% tariffs and rising policy uncertainty under President Trump.

Guest Cheng Chye Hsern, Head of Investment at Providend, explains which sectors are taking the hardest hit - and where investors can pivot strategically.

We examine whether today’s volatility risks echoing last year’s “Liberation Day” market tremors.

Closer to home, Singapore’s big three banks post record profits even as margins soften late in the quarter.

With a $1.5 billion boost to the Equity Market Development Programme, we ask whether it’s time to increase home bias toward local stocks.

Finally, we explore how to balance blue-chip resilience with smaller, high-growth opportunities on the STI.
