Good morning, and welcome to Stockhead’s Top 10 at shortly-before-11-ish, fuelled by bleary eyes and coffee from that nice fella in the cafe across the street. Steve, I think his name is. Or possibly Pete.

Top 10 highlights the best (and sometimes worst) performing ASX stocks in morning trade using live data, to provide a short, sharp update to help frame the trading day by showing the biggest movers in percentage terms.

The market opens at 10am (eastern time) and the data is taken at 10:15am, once every ASX stock has started trading – for better or worse.
