Good morning, and welcome to Stockhead’s Top 10 at shortly-before-11-ish, to highlight 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 – and then I do my best to make sense of who’s moving where and why it might be happening.

DiscovEX Resources (ASX:DCX) is up this morning – the list mentions an announcement today but the only thing I can spot this morning is a notification of the expiry of a stack of unlisted options late last week.

Compumedics (ASX:CMP) is charging hard this morning on news that its Somfit medical device has been cleared for sale in the US by the FDA. Compumedics reckons the market in the US is worth about US$110-180 million, and that the company izs targeting a relatively modest 10%-30% of that market over the next 12 months.

Western Mines Group (ASX:WMG) has jumped this morning on assay results from its Mulga Tank project, showing broad zones of nickel sulphide mineralisation with elevated Ni and S coincident with highly anomalous Cu and PGE.
