Good morning everyone, on Stockhead today there is no history lesson because that’s Gregor’s thing.
I’m all business.
Business like the kind Guy Le Page watches while enjoying a Cohiba and relaxing in a custom made whaleskin La-Z-Boy, or how mining experts feel about the outlook for metals in 2024 (that’s Josh Chiat’s), and known copper fiend Jess Cummins being on the lookout for Australia’s next biggest copper discovery.
It’s exciting stuff.
Okay if we really must… happy birthday to the IMF, the Salem Witch trials and Nikola Tesla’s first public radio demonstration.

Christian was loving this death or glory reaction to local biopharma Nyrada (ASX:NYR), which yesterday morning piled on another 50% in quick time (to go with Wednesday’s 421% bonanza).
Since then, the stock’s come off 53%. So now only 418% up on Tuesday.

Cue Energy Resources (ASX:CUE) was up early in the morning after delivering its half-year, with a 22% lift in revenue to $29.3 million, and an underlying EBITDAX of $19.3 million, up 21%, and a 34% NPAT increase to $9.1 million.
Noxopharm (ASX:NOX) is continuing its recent run of good form, up another 28.2% after it banked some happy 1HFY24 results news.
And Norfolk Metals (ASX:NFL) popped higher after an upbeat projects update for its copper-gold play in Tasmania, and an expansion to its uranium exploration in South Australia.
