Wall Street Journal:
"On Friday 522 million SpaceX shares were traded out of 556 million floated, suggesting no shortage of willing sellers."
Yes, but they only floated 4.26% of the total shares on issue. Still, that's day one trade worth >$US80b

Enjoying the banter between US and Australian readers under this New York Times article on today's heroics ahead of Friday's battle of Seattle.
"The USA has only liberated the globe twice, what has your country ever done?" wrote one Seppo:

New York Times:
"Patrick Beach made eight saves, the most of any Australian goalkeeper at a World Cup match and the most of any goalkeeper on their World Cup debut since Turkey’s Rustu Recber in 2002."
Well how about that!

Simon Hughes in The NY Times:
"The outcome was arguably the sight of the 2026 World Cup so far, as Australian players celebrated at the final whistle with their many thousands of fans while Down Under by Men at Work reverberated on the sound system."

New York Times:
"In the end Turkey had 30 shots — the most a team has generated without scoring in a World Cup game since Portugal against England in 2006."
Take a bow Patrick Beach. He saved 8 of them:

Kudos to Westfields Sports High School Deputy Principal David Barrett whose football factory in western Sydney delivered more soccer stars than anyone, the latest being goal keeping super star Patrick Beach:

Even the BBC is onto this story
Nestory Irankunda may have written his name into the Australia football history books but he was a player already creating his own remarkable story.

Great polling from Vic - Labor set to be smashed with the Liberals way ahead of both the govt and ON. Even saving the furniture now is looking problematic for Allan and co.
Nemesis is coming for Australia's most rotten political outfit.

@AlanKohler dons the safety googles as Elon Musk's SpaceX IPO fires up, gauges the RBA's next move and evaluates what's fuelling One Nation's sudden and unprecedented rise to the top of the polls.
Another excellent Saturday read - worth a free trial

Lobbed these 4 written questions at the 20 minute Finder Energy Holdings (FDR) virtual EGM held via the Automic platform on June 12, 2026. Market cap was $190m on EGM day. No protest votes and found these SPP exchanges particularly interesting:

Finder Energy chair Bronwyn Barnes did a good job reading the questions whilst never naming the “somebody” who was lobbing them. Questionable comments from CEO Damon Neaves when presented with a list of 40 VWAP-priced SPPs. He still doesn’t get it but said was “very interesting”

Whilst Finder Energy CEO Damon Neaves appreciates the support from 40% shareholder Longreach Capital, he’d rather more institutional shareholders and better liquidity as it grows. He’s a good straight talking CEO, this bloke. Rate him.

If major shareholder Longreach Capital has never sold a share in Finder Energy, why do they keep doing placements which require an EGM to approve Longreach participation. Wouldn’t a rights issue make more sense? Chair and CEO shared the load on this one at Friday’s EGM.
