Rise and Shine: Everything you need to know before the ASX opens

Good morning everyone, and welcome to 23 July, 2024 – an important date in the history of things and other stuff.
From a philosophical point of view, on this date in 1764, James Otis published his views on taxation without representation. I’ll save you the trouble – he was not a fan.
It was also a big day, militarilty speaking – on this day in 1793, the Prussians conquered Mainz, before moving on to Dessertz.
In 1798, Napoleon Bonaparte conquered Alexandria in Egypt. He would eventually go on to have a crack at Russia in 1812, before *ahem* coming up short.
Luckily for you, you won’t have to build an enormous empire only to come undone by being foolish enough to invade Russia in the winter, in order to get your hands on the info you need this morning.
That’s because – as always – I’ve worked super-hard to gather together lots of fiddly little things below, so you don’t need to go ferreting all over the internet for your ASX info this morning.
