ASX Small Cap Lunch Wrap: Who wasn’t invited to the party today?
News

The White House is planning to hold an electric vehicles (EV) event with President Joe Biden this coming Thursday.
The invite list includes the usual suspects: General Motors, Ford, Chrysler…
But oddly, Tesla wasn’t on the list.
It’s even stranger considering that Stellantis (the parent company of Chrysler) is not even an American company (it’s Dutch).
Analysts are still dumbfounded, including Elon himself.
Yeah, seems odd that Tesla wasn’t invited

To the ASX….
Miners were the main drag on the ASX 200 today, as as the iron ore price fell on Chinese domestic consumption concerns.
The ferrous metal fell as much as 5.6% on the Dalian Commoditive Exchange to US$154.54, the lowest since May.
Iron ore stocks like BHP (ASX:BHP), Fortescue Mining (ASX:FMG) and Rio Tinto (ASX:RIO) all dropped by around 2% each.
Despite the sentiment, the broader index ended flat going into lunch break, with Tech stocks the best performing sector, rising by 1.8%.
Afterpay (ASX:APT) was the best stock in Tech today, rising by 5% on no news.
APT investors are still mulling whether to sell or keep the stock, after the acquisition announcement by Square on Monday.
