The world of artificial intelligence (AI) moves fast, and so does its vocabulary. Today’s buzzword? Agentic AI. Over the past year, Google searches for this term have surged by more than 1,000%. Regular readers may recall that this isn’t the first time we’ve covered the topic here in The Edge. To recap, agentic AI refers to any AI system that has been designed to perform complex tasks with minimal human oversight. While the last big talk of the town — generative AI (GenAI) — revolves around “content”, agentic AI is all about “action” — carried out through AI agents.
US Vice-President JD Vance revealed a level of personal ignorance when he said: "We borrow money from Chinese peasants to buy the things those Chinese peasants manufacture." It is a belief that is wrong on so many levels.
Unfortunately, this perception of China is widely believed by many people in the US and Europe. They still think that China is a low-cost export economy producing low-quality products. Many Americans believe China's success relies almost entirely on American consumer demand, when China's exports to the US account for less than 14% of its total global exports.

Yes, the US markets have far outperformed every other market over the medium to longer term, but our portfolio’s goal this year is to beat passive investing actively. In other words, we will attempt to beat the comparable benchmark index where each stock is listed.
This question and other similar ones, such as innovation versus inequality, meritocracy versus redistribution, individual freedom versus state intervention, economic prosperity and inequality, and fairness and incentives, have been debated for centuries. In fact, more than 2,000 years ago, Aristotle (384 BC–322 BC) was reported to have said, “The worst form of inequality is to try to make unequal things equal.”
Our Top 10 Global portfolio has tripled over the past five years, beating the Nasdaq and STI
There is an investing saying that goes: “Time in the market beats timing the market.” This saying implies that passive investing is likely to be superior to active investing over the longer future. A good example would be how benchmark indices such as the S&P 500 and the Straits Times Index (STI) have gained positively over the past five years, as shown in Chart 1.
