Singapore home sales jump to five-month high despite new curbs
By Low De Wei (Bloomberg) – Singapore new home sales rose to their highest level since February despite the introduction of new curbs, in an indication of renewed buying demand in the city-state. Developers sold about 940 private units in July, according to data from the Urban Redevelopment Authority released on Friday. That's more than three times higher than June. There was also a significant spurt in homes launched for sale in July to 1,675 compared with just over 100 a month prior. Despite having one of the world's most expensive real estate markets, local buyers, buoyed by an intergenerational transfer of wealth and falling lending rates, have sustained a boom for private units, which are usually sold years ahead of completion. The surge has concerned authorities, especially with a trend of buyers investing in new units only to flip them in a few years. That prompted an increase in a stamp duty on sellers in early July, adding to a slew of measures in recent years, including increasing a buyers' tax on foreigners in 2023. The most recent changes targeting sellers was 'not too serious,' Chia Ngiang Hong, the group general manager at developer City Developments Ltd. said at an earnings briefing on Wednesday. 'Many of the buyers nowadays are locals and they are buying for investment, long-term investment or owner-occupation,' he said. More stories like this are available on ©2025 Bloomberg L.P.

Dave Ramsey Says Friend Invested $10,000 In Crypto To 'Get A Rise' Out Of Him: 'He Wanted Me To Call Him An Idiot And I Did'
Benzinga and Yahoo Finance LLC may earn commission or revenue on some items through the links below. Personal finance expert Dave Ramsey recently shared an intriguing story about a friend who bought thousands worth of cryptocurrency solely to irritate him. Ramsey Says Friend 'Wasted' $10,000 On a July 29 episode of "The Ramsey Show," the popular radio personality revealed he had a friend who invested $10,000 in cryptocurrency to "get a rise out of him. "And I'm like, you're an idiot," Ramsey said with a poker face. "He wanted me to call him an idiot and I did." Trending: The same firms that backed Uber, Venmo and eBay are investing in this pre-IPO company disrupting a $1.8T market — As amusing as that sounds, Ramsey said he would have called his friend an idiot for simply talking about cryptocurrency investments and that he didn't have to 'waste' $10, Remains A Hardliner The anecdote came in response to a caller's question on whether Ramsey had softened his stance on cryptocurrency. "I haven't softened on that at all," he said emphatically. "You're speculating, you're gambling, then that's up to you. But don't call it an investment." He previously said that assets like Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) are not investment strategies but rather 'things that you can jump into or jump out of." Ramsey added that for Bitcoin to become a "legitimate" currency in his books, it'd require a "longer track record that is stable."Bitcoin's Evolution Bitcoin has skyrocketed a whopping 910% in the last five years, and 46,421% in the last ten years, far exceeding the returns of S&P 500 and gold. Moreover, traditional investors now have exposure to the asset through spot exchange-traded funds and companies such as Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ:MSTR), underlining its growing institutional interest. Earlier this year, President Donald Trump famously said that BTC is helping relieve pressure on the U.S. dollar and that it's 'great' for the country.
