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

On Stockhead today, the best and worst IPOs of FY21-22, how to invest in property right now, and Bottom Picker picks bottom.

But first … the day ahead.

 

WHO’S LISTING THIS WEEK?

BINDI METALS (ASX:BIM)
Raised: $4.8 million
Price: 20c
Listing: Tuesday, June 28, 12pm AEST

Markets are acting like spoilt babies right now, investors throwing themselves out with the bathwater as inflation chews up the toys that used to float among the bubbles.

But the IPO market isn’t dead yet, not by a long shot, with exploration plays still just hot enough to hit it up for cash.

The first float to have a set listing time is Bindi Metals, which is planning to pick up the Biloela project in Queensland.

Our IPO nerd Em Davies says this one is prospective for gold and copper.

And indeed the specs may well show that.

The company plans to compile data and geophysical surveys at the Flanagan’s and Great Blackall prospects, followed by a drilling program at both prospects.

Flanagan’s boasts a 1.5km long by 180m wide stretch of outcropping gold rich mineralisation hosted in diorite, with rock chip results of up to 21g/t gold and 5.2% copper.

 

TRADING HALTS

The following companies entered trading halts on Friday and will exit in the coming days.

Centrepoint Alliance Limited (ASX:CAF) – There’s a non-binding indicative offer from Diverger Limited (ASX:DVR) to acquire all Centrepoint shares.

Orthocell Limited (ASX:OCC) – Announcement about a global exclusive licence and manufacturing agreement for its Striate+ product pending.

BWX Limited (ASX:BWX) – Trading update pending.

 

WHAT GOT YOU TALKING LAST WEEK?

Amid all the doom and gloom across the mining sector, a late charge from locally listed lithium stocks had markets excited.

And wondering if the ASX players may have been oversold.

PayGroup (ASX:PYG) found itself the subject of a rather terrific $120 million takeover bid from American startup unicorn Deel.

Deel’s Aussie business wants to snap up PayGroup in an all-cash feast of human resource deliciousness.

Deel wants to pay the group one Aussie dollar for each shiny new share. Mathematicians inform us that is a 175% premium on PYG’s last close of around 36 cents.

Ending the week at 94 cents, we had a standout winner for the week.

On the flop side, enormous choice, but we’re going to have to go with Humm Group (ASX:HUM).

Down 44% since Monday, Humm also lost most of its humm as well as the cream of its board who were not to outlive the death of their much touted takeover deal with Latitude Financial.

Majority directors Wylie and Muir fell on their swords, while chairman Christine Christian says she’ll go when a fitting replacement is found.
