Singapore Pools Toto jackpot snowballs past $1.23 million after no winner for 7 July

Yahoo2 days ago
SINGAPORE — The 7 July Singapore Pools Toto draw ended with no winner for the Group 1 prize of $1,231,037, setting the stage for a bigger jackpot in the next round.
The winning numbers were 10, 15, 17, 33, 36, 45, with 34 as the additional number. While the top prize went unclaimed, two Group 2 winners each pocketed $129,583 thanks to QuickPick Ordinary entries.
Winning tickets were sold at Fatt Chye Heng Trading (Hougang Avenue 3) and via the Singapore Pools Account Betting Service.
Unclaimed prizes by 3 January 2026 will be redirected to Tote Board-managed donations and grants, so check your tickets.
Toto was launched in 1968 as the first lottery game in the history of Singapore Pools. The game got its name from a combination of the words 'Totalisator' and 'Lotto'.
The current format of Toto sees six winning numbers and one additional number drawn from 49 numbers (1 to 49) every Monday and Thursday. The jackpot sum begins from $1,000,000.
A snowballing feature, which allows for the prize to increase if there are no winners, was introduced to the game in 1981. The System Entry option, where you can pay to be able to pick more numbers, was added later that year.
The winning numbers for the Singapore Pools Toto draw on Thursday (3 July) were 6, 15, 16, 17, 25 and 34, with the additional number being 31.
One lucky ticket took home the Group 1 prize of $2,894,419.
Singapore Pools says that 54% of sales in each draw are added to the Toto prize pool. Your winnings from the pool is dependent on which prize group you land in after the draw reveals the winning numbers.

Singapore Pools has a prize calculator for Toto which you can find here.
The Group 1 prize amount will not snowball beyond the fourth consecutive draw. If there is no Group 1 winner at the end of four consecutive draws, the final jackpot amount (38% of the fourth draw's prize pool plus snowballed amount from the three preceding draws) cascades, i.e. it will be paid to the next prize group with winner(s) and shared equally.
Prize amounts for Group 2, 3, and 4 will snowball until it is won.
Statistics from Singapore Pools includes lottery draws from 9 October 2014 onwards when Toto was updated to the current 6-out-of-49 format. According to their data, the biggest jackpot prize was $19,416,913 which was drawn on 11 February, 2022.
The $19.4 million jackpot had eight winning shares which means the winning share amount worked out to over $2.4m each. A nice sum but nowhere close to the biggest winning shares in Toto history which came in at over $13m on two separate occasions. This happened first on 2 October in 2023 when a single winning share took home $13,077,918. In May last year, another lucky individual had the sole winning share of a very cool $13,123,509 jackpot.

Copper traders look to Chinese buyers in post Trump-tariff world

By Amy Lv and Lewis Jackson BEIJING (Reuters) -Global copper traders are offering cargoes to Chinese buyers as they look to offload metal no longer able to reach the U.S. before President Donald Trump's 50% copper tariff deadline. Trump said late on Wednesday he would impose the new tariff from August 1 to promote domestic production of everything from semiconductors to ammunition. He didn't specify which copper products would be hit or whether exceptions would be considered. China is the world's largest copper consumer, and the number of offers by overseas sellers has been picking up since late June and is now at the highest in months, according to a Chinese copper trader who spoke on condition of anonymity. A second China-based trader said they had received an offer for a 1,500 metric ton cargo from South America for delivery in late July or early August from a buyer "eager to find a home." The step up in offers to China reflects how traders, who have spent months shipping copper to the United States in anticipation of the tariff, must now begin to find alternative destinations for cargoes unable to cross the U.S. border before the tariff comes into effect. Only copper from Latin America that is being loaded or already en route is likely to make the deadline, and even then it is likely to be close, according to logistics sources. "If Chilean material is being freed up to make its way to Europe because less is going to the U.S., that means it's being freed up for everyone and you might see some of that in Asia and elsewhere," Albert Mackenzie, a copper analyst at Benchmark Mineral Intelligence, said. The Yangshan Copper Premium (bill of lading), a benchmark for what Chinese buyers will pay above LME for copper still outside the country, fell 5% to $62 on Thursday, reflecting the offers now on the table, according to a Singapore-based copper trader. Major international trading houses are offering thousands of tons of cargo originally destined for the U.S. for delivery in late July and August to Chinese buyers, they added. The most-traded copper contract on the Shanghai Futures Exchange fell for the fifth day on Thursday, down 0.4% to 78,600 yuan ($10,952.87) per ton after touching its lowest since June 23.

Google Bets Big on AI Back End

Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) has quietly made it clear that its AI future depends on solid plumbing rather than flashy demos. In Singapore, Eunice Huang, Google's head of AI policy for the APAC region, reminded the audience that running out of compute power is far riskier than having too much. Underinvesting, she said, could hobble everything from chatbots to translation in April, Sundar Pichai put real numbers behind the talk. He confirmed that Alphabet plans to invest about seventy-five billion dollars in data-center infrastructure by 2025. Even with U.S. tariffs looming, the company is doubling down on servers, networking equipment, and custom isn't just about racks of machines. Low-latency performance and reliable uptime are the backbone of any AI service that needs to handle real-world traffic. By building out capacity now, Google hopes to lock in a performance edge that rivals will struggle to should keep an eye on Alphabet's capex trends in coming quarters and any moves out of Washington on tariffs. For Google, this is a bet that squeezing margins today will pay off in the form of long-term leadership in AI. This article first appeared on GuruFocus.

Reverse Flip Gains Momentum: Why Indian Startups Are Coming Home

A growing number of Indian startups originally incorporated abroad are now shifting their domicile back to India. This move commonly referred to as a "reverse flip" marks a significant shift in strategy for high-growth startups looking to align more closely with India's maturing capital markets, evolving regulatory landscape, and investor expectations. Opinions expressed by Entrepreneur contributors are their own. You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. A growing number of Indian startups originally incorporated abroad are now shifting their domicile back to India. This move commonly referred to as a "reverse flip" marks a significant shift in strategy for high-growth startups looking to align more closely with India's maturing capital markets, evolving regulatory landscape, and investor expectations. Several prominent startups have already completed or initiated this transition. In 2022, fintech major PhonePe set the tone by moving its headquarters from Singapore back to India. The company reportedly incurred a tax liability of INR 8,000 crore in the process, underlining the seriousness of the move. More recently, Groww, a financial services platform, shifted its domicile from the US to India in March 2024. The startup paid approximately INR 1,340 crore in taxes as part of the relocation. Pine Labs received court approval in Singapore in May 2024 to move to India. Other startups such as Zepto, Razorpay, Meesho, and Dream11 are either in the process of redomiciling or actively exploring the shift. Harshil Mathur, co-founder of Razor Pay, had said that, "India is a home market and a place where everybody knows and understands. From a listing perspective, it makes sense to be in India," reported Reuters India. One of the key drivers of the shift being the IPO market in India and its valuation benefits. As more Indian startups mature and look to go public, local stock exchanges offer better valuation multiples and stronger retail investor interest. Domiciling in India is a prerequisite for listing on the NSE or BSE. Manu Iyer, General Partner & Cofounder, Bluehill VC said that the industry is seeing a growing preference among startups and growth-stage companies to list locally and shift their domiciles back to India with one of the drivers being capital markets deepening and regulatory clarity improving. Beyond access to a maturing investor base, this trend reflects rising confidence in India's long-term economic trajectory and a desire to align more closely with domestic stakeholders. "SEBI's reforms around listing which reduce compliance burden for tech startups aiming to go public and relaxed rules around profitability, lock-in and public shareholding make it a lot easier. Another reason is around the reduction of tax treaty benefits for various jurisdictions," said Iyer, India's regulatory environment, particularly in fintech, data privacy, and intermediary obligations, increasingly requires local legal presence. Being domiciled in India helps companies navigate RBI, SEBI, and IT regulations more efficiently. Roma Priya, Founder of Burgeon Law, said that startups shifting domiciles back to India and choosing to list locally is a reflection of changing ground realities. "India's capital markets today offer deep liquidity, policy stability, and a maturing investor base that understands tech-driven businesses. For many founders, listing at home also strengthens brand resonance, simplifies compliance, and aligns with the shift toward long-term value creation over regulatory arbitrage. This is no longer just a symbolic move; it is a strategic one," said Priya. Moreover, startups now have most of their teams, customers, and business operations in India. Redomiciling reduces structural inefficiencies, cuts legal duplication, and centralizes governance. "I think for the mission, PhonePe is on … the move to India was right. India is where we started and where we are focused on… for various reasons like being a highly regulated entity and wanting to eventually list here, the change of domicile…is the right answer." Sameer Nigam, CEO PhonePe, had earlier said that for the mission PhonePe is on, the move to India was right. India is where we started and where we are focused on, for various reasons like being a highly regulated entity and wanting to eventually list here, the change of domicile is the right answer. " When it comes to investor confidence, Indian and global investors are more comfortable with predictable domestic regulations and clearer exit pathways via Indian IPOs. According to Peak XV's Mohit Bhatnagar, the shift is now "the biggest topic of discussion" among portfolio companies.
