Money and Me: Where the Korean retail investor is heading, why Alibaba is changing, the 5.25% US Bond

from Your Money with Michelle Martin · host MONEY FM 89.3

Is South Korea’s bruising sell-off creating a buying opportunity? Does Alibaba become more compelling as it sells businesses to double down on AI? And with 30-year US Treasuries yielding around 5.25%, is that an attractive return - or a warning about risk, especially for Singapore investors exposed to a weaker US dollar? Michelle Martin speaks with Swapnil Mishra, author of Investing for the Clueless, Reckless and Overly Cautious, about where he sees opportunity now. They also unpack bond ETFs, the risks of equity-market concentration, and why ETF ownership in Singapore remains relatively low despite growing investor interest.
