Money and Me: Ringgit’s Rise, Nvidia’s Reality Check & Singapore’s First Crypto Perps

The ringgit just hit its strongest level in three years — here’s why it matters for your wallet.
In this episode of Money and Me, hosted by Michelle Martin, we unpack why the Malaysian ringgit is surging and whether the rally can last through 2025.

We break down Nvidia’s latest earnings and what they signal about the next phase of the AI trade.
Plus: if Bitcoin is “digital gold,” why is it trailing both bonds and gold this year?
We also demystify Singapore’s newest market milestone: SGX’s launch of Bitcoin and Ethereum perpetual futures — what they are, why they matter, and who will be using them.

Joining the conversation is Swapnil Mishra, author of Investing for the Clueless, Reckless and Overly Cautious.
