Oil above $110, war risks rising - yet markets are climbing… what’s really going on?

Michelle Martin explores the surprising resilience of equities as the Fed holds rates steady despite inflation and geopolitical shocks.

We unpack how Middle East tensions - from Iran to Qatar - are reshaping energy markets and reigniting inflation fears.

At the same time, capital is rotating into AI, with Nvidia at the centre of renewed chip flows into China.

Plus, a bold new frontier emerges: chips in space - could this redefine the next phase of computing and investment?

All this and more, hosted by Michelle Martin.

Money and Me: Why are markets still climbing if oil prices are rising?

What comes to mind when you think of letting go?

Perhaps you are trying to let go of unhelpful thoughts or beliefs or habits.

Perhaps the best masterclass on letting go comes from survivors of illnesses that take away what we assume we have for life.

On LIVE WELL WITH MICHELLE, Michelle takes us through the deeply human story of a Singaporean stroke survivor whose new book is an invitation to rethink letting go and returning home to ourselves.

Michelle highlights lessons on coping with loss after major life transitions.

LIVE WELL WITH MICHELLE: When letting go is the healthiest thing you can do

Markets are shrugging off virus scares, rising bond yields and fragile US-China tensions - but are investors becoming dangerously comfortable with risk?

Hosted by Michelle Martin with Arun Pai, Partner at Monk's Hill Ventures, this episode unpacks why Wall Street appears increasingly willing to “buy the dip” even during moments of geopolitical and health uncertainty.

Michelle explores what it means when figures like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg travel alongside US President Donald Trump to China - and whether corporate America is now shaping diplomacy as much as governments.

The conversation also dives into the quiet but important rise in bond yields and why markets may be losing faith in imminent rate cuts.

From biotech names like Moderna to tech giants and global capital flows, discover which sectors could win - or suffer - if higher rates and geopolitical uncertainty persist.
