As is so often the case with trailers, we are left with more questions than answers. But if what goes on in our markets (particularly among small caps) are any guide, expectations and reality can be a world apart.
Speaking of the markets, they are slightly down today. The ASX Small Ords down 0.37 per cent to 2,865 and the ASX 200 down 0.39 per cent to 6,646.
Going up
Board changes aren’t always market moving but Purifloh (ASX:PO3) and Aurelia Metals (ASX:AUR) both jumped by 15 per cent and 17 per cent respectively. The latter of these stocks welcomed the ex-boss of Stanmore Coal.
AppsVillage (ASX:APV) climbed 13 per cent after signing a deal with a USA-based lender to provide finance to its clients.
But Redbubble (ASX:RBL) was this morning’s stand out with news. Another positive quarterly sent it up 25 per cent.
