ASX top stocks today: Silex jumps 9% in uranium surge as WiseTech drops on ACCC move

Uranium and rare-earth stocks topped the Australian market on Monday, led by Silex Systems, which jumped 9.43% to A$9.75. The benchmark S&P/ASX 200 index, Australia’s main basket of large caps, finished near flat, up 0.01% at 8,728.6. Livecenter The rally landed as investors tracked the fallout from U.S. action in Venezuela that put oil supply and sanctions policy back in focus. Traders leaned into “critical minerals” — metals that power batteries, electronics and defence systems — and trimmed rate-sensitive tech and consumer names. Seymour Telegraph

  • JetBlue Reports Drone Hit Near JFK at 3,000 Feet, FAA Logs Over 100 Sightings a Month
    June 29, 2026, 6:37 PM EDT. A JetBlue Airbus A321 said a drone struck it close to the cockpit as it was coming into JFK at around 3,000 feet, an unusual example of a drone in restricted airspace. The jet landed without trouble and was cleared to keep flying, with no reported damage. The incident came after a United Airlines plane had a near miss with a drone near Newark. FAA records more than 100 drone sightings a month around airports. The agency restricts drone flights up to 3,000 feet for big events like the New York World Cup. JetBlue shares dropped 6.1%. United was down 0.7%. No evidence the news directly hit either stock. Drone airspace risk worries are growing as drone encounters threaten to disrupt flights at busy airports.
