Can artificial intelligence help you choose the perfect cup of tea for your body?

Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore has partnered with Singapore wellness brand Luli to launch what it says is the country's first AI-powered Traditional Chinese Medicine afternoon tea experience.

Michelle Martin speaks with Ryan from Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel Singapore and Jovalene Teo, CEO and Founder of Luli and Aiteaic, about how the collaboration came together, why hotels are embracing personalised wellness, the science behind AI-powered TCM recommendations, and whether technology can make ancient wellness practices more accessible, engaging and enjoyable - without losing their authenticity.

Show your tongue! AI Meets Afternoon Tea 

Singapore's markets are entering uncharted territory.

The Monetary Authority of Singapore has surprised investors by tightening monetary policy, signalling confidence in the economy while warning that inflationary pressures - particularly from higher energy prices - remain a concern.

At the same time, the Straits Times Index has surged to a record high, prompting fresh debate over whether investors should increase their exposure to Singapore equities.

Is the so-called "Orchard Road Effect" turning Singapore into Asia's premium investment destination, and could the STI climb even higher?

We also examine the latest volatility in AI and semiconductor stocks.

With chipmakers under pressure despite continued demand for AI infrastructure, is this a buying opportunity or a signal to be more selective?

Joining Michelle Martin is Cheng Chye Hsern, Head of Investment at Providend, to discuss whether record highs should deter investors, how rising oil prices could shape markets in the months ahead, and where the best investment opportunities may lie for the second half of 2026.

Money and Me: Record STI, the 'Orchard Road Effect' & Is It Time to Buy AI Again?

Wall Street fell as investors questioned whether surging AI spending will deliver sufficient returns, sending Tesla and Alphabet sharply lower despite another strong earnings season.

Intel bucked the trend with its fastest revenue growth in nearly 15 years, fuelled by AI demand.

Closer to home, Allianz is expanding in Singapore through a S$2.9 billion acquisition of HSBC Life Singapore after its unsuccessful bid for Income Insurance.

We also look at Brent crude staying above US$100 a barrel and stocks on the move, including Oracle, Lockheed Martin and Eli Lilly.
