Stock market today: Wall Street rises at the start of a holiday-shortened week
( ) shares had a tough time on Wednesday. The counterdrone technology company's shares were sold off again and dropped 6% to 70 cents. The good news for shareholders is that the company's shares are bouncing back on Thursday morning. In fact, the DroneShield share price was up 4% to 73 cents before being paused from trade. This put it among the best performers on the (ASX: XAO) index before the pause. Why are DroneShield's shares racing higher today? Today's gain was driven the release of an before the market open. According to the release, DroneShield has received a repeat order of $8.2 million from a major European military customer. The company advised that the order is for dismounted and vehicle-mounted counter-UxS systems. It expects to deliver the order over the next three months, including from available stock. The full cash payment is expected to be received during the first quarter of 2025. The company's CEO, Oleg Vornik, believes that this order is a validation of the quality of DroneShield products and how they are meeting the needs of sophisticated military customers. Commenting on the deal, Vornik said: Larger orders of this type from repeat customers of this calibre are a validation that DroneShield products are meeting the challenge set by sophisticated military customers. As the threat of drones is increasing across the entire battlespace, militaries need broader packages like this one. The chief executive also believes that this order demonstrates the company's competitive advantage in being able to link vehicle and fixed systems together. He adds: DroneShield is unique globally in that we can provide an entire ecosystem of dismounted, vehicle and fixed systems and link them all together. Should you invest? A recent note out of Bell Potter reveals that its analysts see a lot of value in DroneShield's shares at current levels. Prior to today's news, it had a buy rating and $1.20 price target on its shares. It said: Whilst DroneShield's revenue YTD has been disappointing, we view this as an opportunity to reset market expectations, which were overly optimistic for CY24. However, DRO remains a high-quality technology company, operating in a rapidly growing market and is well capitalised to maintain its market leading position. We believe the current SP provides an attractive entry point considering DRO's strong runway into CY25 ($18m contracted rev.), robust market demand and appealing long-term growth outlook. Why the pause? The pause states the following: Trading in the securities of the entity will be temporarily paused pending a further announcement. Stay tuned for that.

A simple twist of scientific discovery sparked one company’s breakthrough in battery technology for electric vehicles. Coreshell, a battery technology company, is developing what it says is the first commercial-scale battery that uses metallurgical silicon (MG-SI) in the anode. Their design replaces the traditional Chinese-produced graphite anode electrode with an anode made of domestically sourced, low-cost silicon. Using metallurgical silicon for the anode, Coreshell can use 10 times less anode material to achieve the same battery capacity. Silicon has a much higher theoretical capacity than graphite, said Ross Polk, Coreshell’s director of business development. “You can load more energy into it, and because of that your battery goes farther.” Coreshell’s battery is also engineered for fast-charge capabilities, Polk said, so an EV’s recharge rate will be quicker. Cost is the primary differentiator for Coreshell’s battery technology. A close second is its sustainability and environmental benefits. The battery is the largest cost component of EVs, accounting for up to 40 percent of the materials cost,” said Coreshell CEO Jonathan Tan. “Most automotive manufacturers are losing money for every EV sold, and most consumers are still priced out,” he said. “This high cost, combined with reliance on foreign supply chains and ongoing production challenges, is a major barrier to affordable, clean transportation.” Tan said their EV batteries “have the potential to make EVs affordable enough to enable mass adoption.” By replacing graphite anodes, battery anode material costs were cut by up to 50 percent while increasing EV range by up to 40 percent, Tan said. And using metallurgical silicon will cut carbon emissions by 29 percent. “This has the potential to replace graphite at a time when China controls nearly 93 percent of the global graphite supply chain,” Tan said. Ongoing production challenges are another barrier to affordable, clean transportation, Tan said. Coreshell has a strategic partnership with London-based Ferroglobe, a top global producer of silicon metal. Tan said the partnership connects Coreshell with a domestic supply chain rather than relying on China and other countries. Coreshell will keep production in the U.S. in its new 23,000-square-foot facility in San Leandro, Calif., south of Oakland in the East Bay area. Coreshell specializes in cost-effective, high-performance silicon anodes, unlocking new possibilities for EV batteries. The company collaborates with leading silicon producers, battery manufacturers, and automotive OEMs, driving the global shift toward clean energy solutions. Learn more online at coreshell.com .

UnitedHealthcare CEO is fatally shot in a 'targeted attack' outside a New York hotel, officials sayThe former Tory chancellor, now chairman of the British Museum, suggested Sir Keir Starmer had contributed to a warmer spirit of the negotiations over the famous ancient artworks. Greece has long called for the return of the Marbles, also known as the Parthenon sculptures, and maintains they were illegally removed from Athens’ acropolis during a period of foreign occupation. The British Museum – where they are currently on display – is forbidden by law from giving away any of its artefacts, and the Government has no plans to change the law to permit a permanent move. But under Mr Osborne’s leadership, the museum is negotiating the possibility of a long-term loan of the sculptures, in exchange for rolling exhibitions of famous artworks. No 10 has indicated the Prime Minister is unlikely to stand in the way of such a deal. Speaking on Political Currency, the podcast he hosts alongside former Labour politician Ed Balls, Mr Osborne said the museum was “looking to see if we can come to some arrangement where at some point some of the sculptures are in Athens, where, of course, they were originally sited”. He added: “And in return, Greece lends us some of its treasures, and we made a lot of progress on that, but we’re still some distance from any kind of agreement.” The Greek government has suggested negotiations with the museum have taken a warmer tone since Labour came to power in the summer. Mr Osborne appeared to concur with this view and praised Sir Keir’s hands-off approach, adding: “It is not the same as Rishi Sunak, who refused to see the Greek prime minister, if you remember, he sort of stood him up. “So it seems to me a more sensible and diplomatic way to proceed.” Kyriakos Mitsotakis, the Greek premier, discussed the Elgin Marbles with Sir Keir when they met on Tuesday morning at Downing Street, he said after returning to Athens. Mr Mitsotakis has signalled his government is awaiting developments on the negotiations. A diplomatic spat between the Greek leader and Mr Sunak emerged last year when the then-prime minister refused to meet his counterpart. Mr Mitsotakis had compared splitting the Elgin Marbles from those still in Athens to cutting the Mona Lisa in half. The marble statues came from friezes on the 2,500-year-old Parthenon temple and have been displayed at the British Museum for more than 200 years. They were removed by Lord Elgin in the early 19th century when he was British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire. Some of the remaining temple statues are on display in the purpose-built Acropolis Museum in Athens, and Greece has called for the collections to be reunited.
