We are midway through the week and market movements in Asia are mixed so far.

The Nikkei hit a 33-year-high earlier this week while the Kospi has been on a winning streak. The Hang Seng, however is at its lowest level since March.

Meanwhile, China's Baidu, Alibaba and Tencent (BAT) are starting to ramp up its efforts in A.I.

How do we make smart decisions then and seek alpha with all of this happening around us?

Lee Kian Soon, the CEO of Astral Asset Management, joins us on the Bigger Picture to share some insights.
