About this listen

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.
