  • WiseTech up 8.1% as chair White quits during police probe
    July 7, 2026, 1:45 AM EDT. WiseTech shares jumped 8.1%, adding almost $1bn in value, after co-founder Richard White quit as executive chair amid a police probe into coercion claims. White says the allegations are not true and will stay on as chief innovation officer and board director. Raelene Murphy takes over as chair with a focus on shoring up investor trust. WiseTech, once above $40bn in July 2025, is now below $13bn after scrutiny and trouble in the AI sector. The company laid off 30% of staff and is stressing leadership moves. Analyst Jackson Lee said White's exit could help but investors still want to see stronger governance before confidence returns.
