Trade threats. Sliding currencies. Shifting rate expectations. In the debut episode of Market Focus Weekly by The Business Times, host Emily Liu sits down with Geoff Howie, market strategist at Singapore Exchange (SGX), to break down the headlines roiling Asian markets.

From Washington’s tariff deadlines to Singapore’s stock market highs, this is your Friday must-listen for what’s actually moving the region’s markets and why it matters.

Market Focus Weekly cuts through the noise so you can follow the signals.
