To The Moon

Beyond market volatility, many of us are likely feeling another kind of “price surge” in daily life. Since early April, Singapore has entered a broad repricing mode — fuel prices flashing higher, electricity bills creeping up, and even your daily cup of kopi costing a few cents more. From oil to kopi, everything is rising The root cause may lie thousands of miles away — in the Strait of Hormuz, the world’s key energy chokepoint. Rising geopolitical tensions have pushed up oil and natural gas prices, feeding directly into local costs. Diesel prices surged 4.7%–7.6% overnight Singapore relies on ~95% natural gas for electricity, and gas prices are linked to oil $Natural Gas - main 2605(NGmain)$ Residential electricity tariffs have already risen

Short term measures won't help. Reduction in oil and gas reliance, and the pursuit of green energy, should be the long term goal. @thamys @illegalys @WWF2501 @Tq101514 @sam1316 @TigerPM @Tiger Trade Feed @pretiming @Spiders @Reynor

Don't think anything can save us, let alone CDC vouchers. Sorry to say. It may help a little. Time to seriously consider SMRs to power up Singapore. A cleaner and long term option. My 2 cents

Yes CDC voucher is effective dissemination of a country's growth dividend, benefits small retailers hawkers & consumers' grocery bills 

CDC vouchers won't help. timely relief. high oil will last as long as iran war continues

🌟🌟🌟Singapore inflation is like that one relative who keeps showing up uninvited, persistent, annoying & unwanted. Yes CDC vouchers do help a little bit let's be honest: they are like Panadol for a headache.  They are comforting, useful but not enough when chicken rice hits $10 & Kopi is $5! But here is the twist: Even as everything gets pricier, the Singapore market quietly rewards those who stay invested, not those who panic every time oil spikes or headlines scream. I will continue to stay invested especially in our local banks $DBS(D05.SI)$ $OCBC Bank(O39.

1. Hedging risks is an investment strategy to reduce returns and invest in cash 2. Payouts from defensive strategies reduce long term returns 3. High oil prices is only short term as the economic conditions are poor which reduces demand 3. There is already uncertainty to justify a sale of equities

I can definitely feel it in daily life — not just market charts, but real expenses rising. From petrol to kopi, costs are creeping up and adding up quickly. With WTI Crude Oil elevated and Natural Gas trending higher, it’s clear why electricity and transport costs in Singapore are increasing. It feels like inflation is coming from multiple angles. I do think government support helps, but more as a cushion than a full offset. The CDC vouchers and rebates are timely and appreciated, but with fuel and utility costs still climbing, the relief feels temporary rather than a complete solution. As for oil, I expect prices to stay elevated with ongoing geopolitical uncertainty. If tensions ease, we may see some pullback, but escalation could keep energy prices volatile. So I’m staying flexible, ma

Nice Sharing 😁 Early payout is better than Zero payout 😁... waiting for it to be Strong 💪 @koolgal @Shyon @Barcode @JC888 @DiAngel @Aqa @Shernice軒嬣 2000

a near impact is Iran will likely have to negotiate at some point of time

all Trump's fault that fuel price pump so high

Joking package. CDC voucher can use finish. Should try to see how long term can help Singaporean. Especially those PHV driver and logistics company. @Tiger_SG @koolgal @MHh @HelenJanet @Ragz

can last maybe 2 months max. but better than nothing. use slowly. eat bread everyday should be fine. oil price fast up, slow down. don't drive, just walk everywhere.

Assuming the vouchers was brought forward to help with cost of living issues, is there going to be an added round? Also diesel is out of control, the pinch is not only hitting industrial and commercial vehicles (delivery trucks, vans, etc.), but drivers who thought a diesel engine would have brought huge savings. The costs will be going up for everyone and will come down too slowly.
