Singtel share price dips into weekend as Singapore stocks hit record — what matters before Monday

Singapore, Jan 24, 2026, 14:53 SGT — Market closed Shares of Singapore Telecommunications Ltd (Singtel) dipped on Friday, closing 0.45% lower at S$4.44, despite Singapore’s main stock index hitting new highs.

Silver price breaks $100 as futures settle at records; SLV jumps before Fed decision

New York, Jan 23, 2026, 17:16 EST — After-hours U.S. silver futures broke into triple digits Friday, with the March contract hitting a high of $101.86 an ounce before closing at $101.33, marking a 5.2% gain for the day. (MarketWatch) The $100 mark is straightforward, which is exactly the point. Silver’s surge is pushing a metals rally into a wider play — drawing in more participants, ramping up leverage, and giving stock-market money fresh avenues to chase gains. Gold has been pulling the complex upward, with silver following along—but it’s no longer the cheap option. Peter Grant at Zaner Metals

Boston Scientific stock (BSX) climbs as heart-rhythm rivalry and deal risk stay in play

Why Navitas Semiconductor (NVTS) stock is down today — and what traders watch next

New York, Jan 23, 2026, 15:17 EST — Regular session Navitas Semiconductor shares dropped roughly 10% on Friday, retreating from a steep gain the previous day as chip stocks slipped following a cautious outlook from Intel that shook investor confidence. The decline is notable since Navitas ranks among the smaller, high-beta chip stocks traders lean on to gauge AI-driven demand. Ahead of the Fed decision and a wave of major tech earnings, the market has swiftly pulled back from rallies in speculative semiconductor names.

Silver breaks $100 as gold nears $5,000 — what’s driving the record precious-metals run

NEW YORK, Jan 23, 2026, 14:51 EST Silver broke past $100 an ounce on Friday, hitting a new record as gold climbed further into untested levels, nearing the $5,000 mark. The rush into safe-haven metals has broadened beyond gold, sparking a cross-metal rally. CP24 The shift is significant as investors increasingly view precious metals not just as a trade but as a safeguard, driven by renewed geopolitical tensions and policy uncertainty. The prospect of U.S. interest rate cuts has played into this too: lower rates make holding non-yielding bullion less costly in terms of forgone interest. Tight physical availability and

Silver price breaks $100: what’s driving XAG/USD — and what could knock it back

New York, January 23, 2026, 13:46 ET — Regular session underway. Spot silver (XAG/USD) shot past $100 an ounce on Friday, last trading 5.1% higher at $101. Gold meanwhile climbed to a record $4,988. Silver has jumped roughly 40% in 2026 after soaring 147% last year, while the gold-to-silver ratio shrank to about 50 from 105 in April. StoneX analyst Rhona O’Connell called it “a self-propelled frenzy.” (Reuters) Hitting the $100 mark is a big deal, given silver’s notorious volatility.
