Market Overview

In the midst of afternoon trading, the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) experienced a slight downturn, currently standing at 7,485.5 points. However, amidst this market fluctuation, several ASX-listed companies are defying the trend and witnessing positive momentum.

Boss Energy Ltd (ASX: BOE)

With a first-half production of 108,026 ounces, Red 5 is confidently on track to meet its full-year production guidance of 195,000 to 215,000 ounces.
