Money and Me: The ACE Strategy — Gold, Tech and Emerging Markets

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.

Market View: AI Titans, Dividend Kings & Turbulent Skies

In China’s 2026 market, survival isn’t about buying the dip - it’s about finding the moat.

In this episode, hosted by Michelle Martin, we dissect why investors are shifting from momentum plays to structural dominance with Willie Keng, Founder of Dividend Titan (https://www.dividendtitan.com/).

We explore four defining themes and why hyper-competitive sectors are being left behind.

From China Tower’s near-97% telecom dominance to Tencent’s evolving identity from growth darling to cash-generating powerhouse, we unpack where durability lies.

We also assess whether LVMH can maintain pricing power amid China’s luxury fatigue and the rise of local brands.

Finally, in an easter egg  moment, our guest shares his view on the rush for gold from the value investor perspective.
