Whoa, okay, so let’s talk about these Singapore T-bills. I mean, numbers? Snooze-fest, right? But hang in there, I promise it’ll gonna make sense. So, the yield, you know, that little percentage number, on the 6-month T-bill ended chilling at 2.41%. Math wizards, hold your gasps.
Anyway, stuff’s happening fast. There’s this fresh auction for 6-monthers—BS25108N, if you love random string of letters and numbers like that—on 24 April 2025. Mark your calendars, or don’t, it’s your life.
Last time around, the yield dipped down to 2.50%. So, folks are talking about the one-year versions too, with yields skidding to 2.29%. Makes you wonder if throwing your cash into these tickets is still a pro move. I mean, why dive into a pool if there’s no splash, right? Let’s dig into some clues to see what’s brewing for the upcoming auction.

So, what’s shaking for April 24? Number one on the list—those good ol’ US bonds. Yields over there have dropped. The 10-year US government bond yield slipped to 4.29% lately. Yeah, it was hanging at about 4.50%, but that was before everything got thrown into a blender with US declaring trade wars or something (thanks, Trump!).
After all the drama, looks like there’s a hint of calmness coming through the whiplash of market seesaws. Could we see the same steady hand in T-bill town? Who knows.
Felt like a roller coaster, didn’t it? But that’s life in the bond lane—ton of blinking numbers and too many acronyms. Yet, knowing this stuff means maybe, just maybe, you get to make it rain with more dollars. Or pesos. Or whatever floats your boat.
