On Stockhead today, how Imugene can become a multibagger again, Kogan is an utter bargain, and John So’s ASX energy– wait, did that say A BARGAIN?

But first, the day ahead.

Local shares are set to open higher today. At 8am AEST, the ASX 200 September futures contract is pointing up by 0.40%.

Today the ABS releases detailed labour force figures for July. Commsec says the focus will be on the regional unemployment rate, which hit a record low 3.7% in June.

Bigger companies due to release earnings results and updates include Flight Centre, Qantas, South32, Whitehaven Coal, and Woolworths.

Lithium explorer Arcadia Minerals (ASX:AM7) increased resources by +500% to 287,000t LCE at the flagship Bitterwasser lithium clay project in Namibia.

It is equivalent to a 1% lithium hard rock resource of 11.6Mt, the company says.

New IPO Heavy Rare Earths (ASX:HRE) enjoyed a strong debut. This company holds the Cowalinya clay-hosted rare earths project in the WA and two exploration licences in the NT which form the Duke project.

At Cowalinya, a JORC inferred mineral resource of 28 million tonnes at 625ppm TREO has been declared, with 25% being valuable magnet rare earths.

And plant-based food, nutraceutical and skincare company LiveVerdure (ASX:LV1) has appointed Mark Tucker, former L’Oréal managing director, as CEO effective immediately.

During his tenure at L’Oréal Australia, revenue grew from $12m to more than $400m – making L’Oréal the leading beauty business in the Australian market, LV1 says.
