About this listen
In the US, risky assets slid, with tech stocks and cryptocurrencies bearing the brunt of the selling, after long-simmering concerns about lofty valuations were fanned anew by a chorus of Wall Street executives who warned investors to brace for a pullback. In South Korea, the equity benchmark slumped as valuation concerns hammered recent winners such as chip stocks, defense and shipbuilders. For more on the latest market action, we heard from Anna Wu, VanEck Cross-Asset Investment Specialist. She spoke to Bloomberg's Shery Ahn and Avril Hong.
Plus - we go to Singapore, where we speak to Sandeep Malhotra, Mastercard Executive Vice President for Core Payments in Asia Pacific. He talks about how technology, partnerships, and regulation are redefining how money moves across the region. From real-time payments to cross-border interoperability and the role of AI in fraud prevention, Malhotra shares how Mastercard is modernizing its core network while supporting financial inclusion. We also explore how consumer behavior and digital infrastructure in Asia are influencing global payment trends.
