Singapore shares dipped today as investors digest a slew of corporate earnings from blue chip companies in the country. The Straits Times Index was down 0.3% at 5,005.57 points at 2.41pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$1.46B seen in the broader market. In terms of counters to watch for today, we have Genting Singapore after the company yesterday reported a 30 per cent decline in net profit for the second half of its financial year to S$155.6 million, from S$222 million in the same year-ago period. Elsewhere, from investors’ reactions to US President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address, to how markets in Japan and South Korea reached record highs, more international headlines remained in focus. Also on deck – more on investors’ sentiment towards the AI trade as Anthropic unveiled 10 new ways for business customers to use its AI plugins, and as they looked ahead to Nvidia’s latest earnings due overnight.

Today we’re going to turn the clock back to the 1800s to share with you the story of a young man, Georges Nagelmackers, who had just fallen out of love. Like some of us who might travel abroad to take a breather, Nagelmackers fled to the US, where he discovered railroads with the world’s first sleeping cars. The enterprising Belgian engineer decided to take that idea back to Europe, where he would launch luxurious trains leading to the Gates of the Orient. That’s right, we are talking about the Orient Express, or the luxurious train experience provider that would later be further popularised by a suspense novel by writer Agatha Christie in the early 1930s. Then called the CIWL (Compagnie Internationale des Wagon-Lits), or The International Sleeping Car company, Orient Express’ inaugural trip happened in October 1883 from Paris to Constantinople (or the modern day Istanbul), redefining the meaning of long distance travel for luxury travelers. As we know, the development of air travel has changed the way people move between places. That dealt a blow to CIWL, and eventually, the Orient Express made its last direct trip between Paris and Istanbul in 1977. That same year, the SNCF or the French National Railway Company acquired the Orient Express brand, and the last Orient-Express train left Vienna for Strasbourg in December 2009. But hope is not lost. Nearly 140 years after making its first trip, Accor Hotels fully bought over and redeveloped the brand in 2022, expanding the portfolio of Orient Express to include hotels and even yacht sailings. As for the original Orient Express carriages – they will be back on railway tracks in 2027, though details are still scant at the moment. So, what should we know about the Orient Express portfolio of hospitality solutions today, and what is next for the firm? In this episode of Under the Radar “SPECIALS”, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Gilda Perez-Alvarado, Group Chief Strategy Officer of Accor & CEO of Orient Express.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Straits Times Index was down 0.52% at 5,015.04 points at 2.12pm Singapore time, with a value turnover of S$1.48B seen in the broader market. In terms of counters to watch, we have UOB, after the bank said today that its net profit for the fourth quarter fell 7 per cent on the back of margin pressures from lower benchmark rates. Elsewhere, from how US President Donald Trump warned countries against backing away from recently negotiated trade deals after the Supreme Court struck down his emergency tariffs, to a fresh trade tangle between Japan and China, more international headlines remained in focus. On Market View, Money Matters’ finance presenter Chua Tian Tian unpacked the developments with Eddy Loh, Chief Investment Officer, Maybank Group Wealth Management.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Taxes can quietly shape some of the biggest financial decisions you'll ever make — from choosing how to take a pension to deciding how to leave money to your heirs. On this week's Money Matters, Scott and Pat take calls from listeners working through those exact issues. One caller is weighing a pension lump sum against monthly payments, and the tax consequences of that decision become central to the conversation. The guys also discuss how asset location affects tax efficiency, why different accounts are taxed differently, and how thoughtful planning can help reduce unnecessary taxes over time. They even explore ways to structure inheritances that protect beneficiaries while keeping taxes in mind.

How can you take control of your financial future? Financial literacy advocate Veronica Karas maintains that financial literacy isn't just for experts; it's essential for everyone. Women can understand money by acknowledging that they are capable of learning financial concepts despite historical and societal conditioning that convinces them otherwise.

In today's episode of the Lead Like a Woman Show, Andrea Heuston meets with Veronica Karas, the Principal of CAPTRUST, to talk about how she empowers women through financial literacy.

Public radio helped define trust in audio. Now AI is reshaping how audio gets made. In this episode, I sit down with Ernesto Aguilar — public radio executive, author, and the person who gave me my first big break at KPFT in Houston more than a decade ago. That opportunity launched what has now become one of the longest-running financial planning podcasts in the space. We talk about how public radio built credibility over decades, why audiences still turn to trusted voices for deeper context, and how AI is changing production without replacing the human responsibility behind the microphone. Ernesto shares practical insights on: Why listeners may discover news on social media but seek out public radio for the fuller story How AI tools can help small teams scale responsibly Where creators should draw the line when automating What it really takes to pitch a show to public radio The foundational skills broadcasters need today Why supporting public media still matters This conversation isn't just about broadcasting. It's about trust, long-term thinking, and how to use technology without losing the human elements that build credibility. If you're a podcaster, media professional, entrepreneur, or leader thinking about AI and trust in your industry, this episode will challenge and sharpen your perspective. Listen in.

In today's episode, I'm sharing my conversation with Leslie Forde — author, CEO, researcher, and advocate for women's maternal needs. Leslie is the creator of Mom's Hierarchy of Needs, a powerful framework that helps explain why traditional self-care so often falls short for moms. We talk about why so many of the struggles moms face aren't personal failures, but the result of systemic and cultural pressures — including scarcity and money stress. Leslie shares how growing up with financial instability shaped her relationship with work and options, how financial stress shows up in the nervous system, and why understanding money as options (not just numbers) can be so empowering. We also explore why believing we deserve care is such an essential — and often missing — starting point. Find more from Leslie:
