Markets may be at record highs, but that doesn’t mean opportunities have disappeared. In fact, this is often when discipline matters most.
This week’s Smart Reads explores why some investors are still buying blue chips, where to find dividend yields that beat CPF, and how to position portfolios amid geopolitical uncertainty. We also dive into a fintech milestone, cash-rich dividend growers, and the ongoing debate between REITs and bank stocks.
In addition, we look at Keppel in a US$100 oil environment and compare two data centre REITs shaping the future.
