Money and Me: Where are interest rates going and what are the implication of Fitch downgrading US credit?

When the world feels unstable, doing nothing might be your smartest move—or your biggest mistake.

As geopolitical tensions and rising energy prices reshape markets, investors are being forced to rethink where safety truly lies.

We explore the critical “foundations first” approach - liquidity, protection, and resilience—before deploying capital in uncertain times.

From fixed deposits and bonds to gold, silver and REITs, how should investors balance safety versus inflation protection?

The UK property market faces a structural reset as the Renters’ Rights Act dismantles the traditional buy-to-let model.

Is this an investor exodus - or a shift towards a more professional, regulated market?

Money and Me: Where to Park $200K as War and Rates collide

We start in Singapore where  the MAS has tightened policy for the first time since 2022, even as safe-haven flows push interbank rates lower - a rare divergence.

Goldman Sachs delivers blockbuster earnings, powered by AI-driven trading and a resurgence in dealmaking - but investors still hit the sell button. 

Global markets rebound on Iran ceasefire hopes, while oil volatility continues to signal underlying geopolitical risk.

In corporate news, luxury giant LVMH disappoints, CATL eyes a massive capital raise, and Keppel flags second-order shocks.

Closer to home, the STI slips, with Hongkong Land dragging while Sembcorp Industries provides a bright spot.

We digest market news in this conversation with Michelle Martin and Ryan Huang.
