NASDAQ:AES 3 March 2026

July 1, 2026, 10:55 PM EDT. The Australian market is steady just under 8,780, with traders weighing U.S.-Iran risks and a tech rally on Wall Street. ASX penny stocks are in focus for investors chasing smaller names. Djerriwarrh Investments Limited (ASX: DJW) trades at a A$745.95 million cap, under pressure on earnings but still giving a 5.46% yield. Li-S Energy Limited (ASX: LIS) stands out as a pre-revenue lithium-sulphur battery firm with A$88.3 million valuation, no debt and plenty of liquidity, though its losses are deepening. Regal Partners Limited is also on the radar, but with limited information available. These names offer varied risk for investors, spanning financials and battery tech, in what remains a cautious market.
