Yesterday’s winners
After TinyBeans’ (ASX:TNY) announced a deal with toy behemoth Lego, investors were quick to bid the stock up 79 per cent to 71c in the opening minutes of Monday morning trading.
The details are lacking, but Tinybeans reckons the deal is bigger than a $200,000 marketing campaign it signed with a US life insurer in February.

Yesterday’s losers
Struggling data sharing company Shareroot (ASX:SRO) fell 50 per cent, with investors unimpressed by a new health-sector focussed business plan.
“At this point in time every dollar counts and we have to ensure we employ every cent toward generating revenue or generating value – no exceptions,” ShareRoot boss Michelle Gallaher says.
“We are under no illusions that it will take an enormous effort to deliver on the promise and achieve success for the company and our shareholders given recent challenges and changes in the business.”
