The Orocobre Limited (ASX: ORE) share price has been a strong performer on Monday.

In afternoon trade, the lithium producer’s shares are up a sizeable 7% to $5.20.

Why is the Orocobre share price zooming higher?

There appear to have been a couple of catalysts for today’s strong gain by the Orocobre share price.

One of those is the increasingly bullish sentiment in the industry due to improving lithium prices. This is being driven by an expected increase in demand for the battery making ingredient thanks to electric vehicle adoption and increased investment in renewable energy.

It isn’t just the Orocobre share price charging higher. Also on the rise today have been the Galaxy Resources Limited (ASX: GXY) share price with a 6% gain and the Pilbara Minerals Ltd (ASX: PLS) share price with a 10% gain.

What else happened?

In addition to this, the Orocobre share price was given a boost this morning after revealing that its Naraha Lithium Hydroxide Plant in Japan was largely unscathed following an earthquake off the coast of Fukushima Prefecture on Saturday.

Management commented: “An initial inspection of the plant with the construction contractor, Veolia Jenets on the morning of 14 February found some minor damage to the site office but did not find any visible defects to plant equipment. Additionally, there is no damage to site infrastructure services.”

“A further inspection will be undertaken on 15 February to confirm the initial observations and assure the safety of the site prior to the recommencement of construction work,” it added.

The Naraha Plant is the first of its kind to be built in Japan and is a joint venture with Toyota Tsusho Corporation (TTC).

It is designed to convert primary grade lithium carbonate feedstock sourced from the Olaroz Lithium Facility into purified battery grade lithium hydroxide.

Xanadu Mines Ltd (ASX: XAM) shares are surging today after the company released an update to the market this morning. The update was regarding the results of Xanadu’s diamond drilling program in Stock Worth Hill at its Kharmagtai porphyry copper and gold project in Mongolia.

At the time of writing, the Xanadu share price has rocketed 36.36% to 4.5 cents.

What did Xanadu Mines report?

The Xanadu share price is on a tear today after the company reported a diamond drill test hole had intersected “a broad zone of high-grade bornite mineralisation” south of its Stockwork Hill resource. The results increase the high grade bornite zone beyond the defined resources.

The intersection included promising results for both copper (Cu) and gold (AU):

• 175m @ 0.84% Cu and 1.83g/t Au (1.78% eCu) from 615m and
• 61m @ 1.43% Cu and 3.76g/t Au (3.36% eCu) from 651m

Highlighting the potential the company sees in Kharmagtai, it said the mineralisation is similar to what was seen at the high-grade Hugo Dummett deposit within the giant Oyu Tolgoi mine.

Commenting on the drill results, Xanadu’s CEO, Andrew Stewart, said:

This is the first time we have seen this density of bornite mineralisation at Kharmagtai. This hole provides a snapshot of what the lower zones of mineralisation at Kharmagtai could look like with increasing gold to copper ratios.

The tenor of gold within the bornite is impressive, containing two to four grams of gold for every percent copper. This hole materially expands the width of the high-grade bornite zone and will help guide drilling for additional high-grade extensions.

Xanadu is currently in the process of arranging follow-up drilling to further test the new target. It will update the market on the planned Phase 2 drilling in subsequent releases. The company also stated it would provide a mineral resource estimate update in March.

Xanadu Mines share price snapshot

Having surged more than 36% today, the Xanadu Mines share price is currently up 50% over the past 12 months. By comparison the All Ordinaries Index (ASX: XAO) is down 1% since this time last year.

Based on today’s share price, the company has a market capitalisation of around $35 million.

The Silver Mines Limited (ASX: SVL) share price is sinking today following an announcement that the miner has successfully completed a capital raise.

During mid-afternoon trade, shares in the silver-focused mineral exploration company are down 3.64% to 26 cents.

Successful capital raise

The Silver Mines share price hasn’t fared well today, despite the company updating investors about its latest placement.

According to its release, Silver Mines has successfully completed a capital raise of $30 million. Offered to institutional, professional and sophisticated investors, the company revealed that demand exceeded the funds needed to accelerate its growth strategy.

The placement was executed at an issue price of 22 cents per share, reflecting a 13.6% discount on the five-day volume-weighted average price. As a result, Silver Mines will place an extra 136,363,637 fully-paid ordinary shares to its registry. 

The funds received from the capital raise will be primarily used towards progress the company’s flagship Bowdens Silver Project. This includes pre-development expenses as well as funding exploration activities over the next 12 months. In addition, corporate and general working capital will also be financed.

Settlement of the placement is expected to occur this Friday 19 February. Quotation of the placement will follow through on Monday 22 February.

Quick take on Silver Mines

Silver Mines is Australia’s largest pure play silver company with expertise in exploration and development of quality silver projects. Its portfolio consists of the Conrad and Webbs projects, the Tuena Project and its recently acquired Bowdens Silver Project. The company’s Bowdens project is said to be one of the world’s largest undeveloped silver sites – a mineral resource of 275 million ounces of silver equivalent.

Silver Mines share price review

In the last 12 months, the Silver Mines share price has been trending upwards, gaining more than 160% on this time last year. The company’s shares hit a 52-week low of 5.2 cents in March 2020 before recovering.

On current prices, Silver Mines has a market capitalisation of around $276 million.

The Zip Co Ltd (ASX: Z1P) share price is soaring today despite no notable recent news from the company. Shares in the buy now, pay later (BNPL) provider have smashed the record yet again, this time posting a high of $12.39 this afternoon.

At the time of writing, the Zip share price is trading 13.16% higher at $12.26.

Why is the Zip share price flying?

With no new news today, could the Zip share price still be lifting off the momentum of the company’s most recent quarterly report? Since the report was released on January 21, the share price is up a whopping 66.4%.

And according to the Australian Financial Review (AFR), last week’s best-performing stock on the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) is also exciting investors over the prospect of a second listing on US markets.

Valuation push

In late January, Zip cofounder Peter Gray labelled its December quarter result “absolutely cracking” and questioned investors’ reluctance to value it on similar multiples to rivals Affirm Holdings Inc, Afterpay Ltd (ASX: APT) and Sezzle Inc (ASX: SZL), as reported by the AFR.

Mr Gray told the AFR:

Our view would be on the revenue multiples, we’re significantly undervalued when directly compared to Afterpay and obviously Affirm.

To this point, Zip currently sits at a share price of $13.16, giving it a market capitalisation of $6.77 billion. In contrast, Afterpay sits at $154.49 with a market cap of $44.08 billion, almost 7 times that of its smaller counterpart.

However, in regards to its total transaction value, Afterpay boasts $4.1 billion against Zip’s $1.6 billion – a difference of 2.56 times.

About the Zip Share price

The Zip share price is currently trading strongly higher, continuing the company’s remarkable recent run. Shares in the company are now up 118% for the year, easily outpacing the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO).

On that front, Zip is the 4th best performer on the index with a return of 215.72% for the past 12 months. Coming in behind Afterpay at 290.7%, Kogan.com Ltd (ASX: KGN) at 242.25%, and Pointsbet Holdings Ltd (ASX: PBH) at 223.98%.

Shares in the Malaysia-based buy now, pay later (BNPL) provider IOUpay Ltd (ASX: IOU) were placed into a temporary trading halt this morning. This came after the IOUpay share price skyrocketed nearly 98% to an intraday high of 85 cents in early trade.

In less than an hour of trading, IOUpay shares traded over $62 million worth of volume. This level of turnover is more than double the company’s monthly average volume. Consequently, the ASX’s figurative eyebrows were raised.

What’s the go with the IOUpay share price?

IOUpay shares were placed in a trading halt by the ASX due to the company’s abnormal share price rise this morning. The ASX issued a price query, colloquially known as a ‘speeding ticket’, to the company, which it promptly responded to. IOUpay advised it was not aware of any information that could explain today’s spike in its share price. 

The IOUpay share price has been on a tear since the company announced its partnership with EasyStore to provide BNPL services on 9 February. This means that IOUpay’s BNPL payment option will be integrated into EasyStore’s e-commerce platform.

For those who are unsure of what EasyStore is – it is a Shopify-esque offering operating in South-East Asia. The multi-channel online offering enables over 7,000 merchants to sell products through digital means. The business has been operational since 2013, now with established operations in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.

In addition, EasyStore merchants racked up A$435 million of total transaction value in 2020.

The BNPL sector continues to attract plenty of excitement on the ASX. IOUpay is now operating among BNPL giants like Afterpay Ltd (ASX: APT) and Zip Co Ltd (ASX: Z1P). In fact, IOUpay made reference to both these companies in its response to the ASX. As cited from the letter of response, IOUpay stated the following: 

This further expansion of the Company into the BNPL sector, further to its existing interests in the mobile and mobile payments sector, is likely to have been recognised by shareholders as being value accretive to IOUpay Limited shareholders by virtue of recent other BNPL market participants’ relative market performance. This has been demonstrated most recently by material price and value increases in companies such as Afterpay…and ZIP Co…

Mindblowing performance

Make sure you have your socks tightly on for this one… The IOUpay share price has returned a mindboggling 8,955% in the last 12 months. The company’s shares have now resumed trading and are currently fetching a price of 75 cents per share. This represents a more than three-fold increase from the 22 cent price tag on Wednesday last week.

IOUpay’s market capitalisation is now standing at around $198 million.

Commonwealth Bank of Australia (ASX: CBA)’s CommSec platform is renowned as one of, if not the, most popular brokerage services in the country. It enables investors to buy and sell ASX shares, as well as shares traded on international stock markets.

Given the rise of newer, ‘cooler’ brokerage services like Superhero and Stake, which offer slick, millennial-friendly interfaces, one might be forgiven for thinking that CommSec is a little too ‘old-world’ for millennial investors.

Not so, if a new report is to be believed.

The ‘Robinhood effect’

According to a report in the Australian Financial Review (AFR) today, the so-called ‘Robinhood effect’ in the US has spilled over into CommSec’s coffers. The Robinhood effect is the term used to describe the rapid increase in market participation from younger investors. It was first sparked by the popular (and free) US broker Robinhood, which is not available in Australia.

This effect has accelerated since the onset of the coronavirus pandemic for several reasons, including the rapidity of the market recovery last year (which is still going), after the sharpest market crash in history. Large stimulus programs in both Australia and the US probably helped as well.

Millennials and Gen Z flock to the ASX

According to the AFR, the number of first-time users of CommSec’s platform has surged by 125% since the onset of the pandemic. The number of CommSec customers with no previous share market experience more than doubled as well. The report tells us these traders went from making up 8% of CommSec’s total customer base in February 2020 to 18% by December.

Around 83% of those new customers were reportedly under 44, a 17% increase. Since the start of the pandemic, first-time traders accounted for roughly 10% of all trades on the platform. That’s up from around 4% prior to the pandemic.

The report confirms that CommSec is enjoying the spoils from a rising tide. Stake has also reported surging use, and 60% of its customer base is under 35.

This ‘Robinhood effect’ is certainly less controversial in Australia than in the US. Increased ASX millennial and Gen Z market participation hasn’t become associated with the kinds of unfettered and wild trading that we have seen coming out of the US. That was exemplified by the GameStop Corp (NYSE: GME) saga from a few weeks ago. The millennial/Gen Z-dominated WallStreetBets Reddit group spearheaded the GameStop short-squeeze. According to the report, WallStreetBets now has over 8 million members following the saga.

It looks as though younger investors are a force that is here to stay.

The Orthocell Ltd (ASX: OCC) share price has had a mixed day of trading so far after the company announced a new United States patent for its flagship product.

After tracking as high as 58 cents this morning, shares in the regenerative medicine company have since retreated. At the time of writing, the Orthocell share price is trading down 2.68% to 54.5 cents.

What did Orthocell announce?

In today’s release, Orthocell advised it has been granted a new US divisional patent for CelGro. The patent provides additional intellectual property (IP) to protect the platform for soft tissue regeneration and repair applications, and expires in June 2033.

Orthocell also revealed it had secured 11 patent families that protect its intellectual property. This includes 110 separate patents/applications, of which 75 have already been granted.

Manufactured in Western Australia, the company believes CelGro has numerous competitive advantages over existing synthetic and biologic tissue repair products. Orthocell said CelGro was known to be superior in cell biocompatibility, tensile strength and tissue repair. The medical device has shown positive results in repairing bone defects in the jaw, assisted in re-joining severed or damaged peripheral nerves, and enhanced restoration of the rotator cuff tendon (shoulder).

Branded as Striate+ in the United States, the CelGro Dental platform will be used for dental bone and tissue regenerations procedures. This includes dental bone repairs, growth around dental implants in extraction sockets, and tissue regeneration in intrabony defects.

Management commentary

Orthocell managing director Paul Anderson welcomed the recent patent approval, saying:

This is an important patent that further protects and strengthens our IP position for CelGro, providing greater layers of protection. This patent also complements the recent market approval of the first CelGro product, Striate+ for dental bone and soft tissue repair procedures approved in the US, EU and Australia.

Orthocell share price snapshot

The Orthocell share price is up almost 20% over the last 12 months. The company’s shares hit a low of 18 cents in last year’s COVID-19 market rout in March, before quickly rebounding. 

Based on the current share price, Orthocell has a market capitalisation of around $104 million.

The Douugh Ltd (ASX: DOU) share price is going gangbusters today. Douugh shares are up 14.58% at the time of writing to 27.5 cents a share. Douugh closed at just 24 cents a share last Friday, and actually opened even lower this morning at 23 cents. However, just after open, the Douugh share price went from a low of 22 cents all the way up to 37.5 cents before settling at its current level.

The current price represents the highest levels Douugh has been at since mid-November last year. That was just before the company’s shares were placed in a lengthy trading halt.

No major Douugh news

Normally, a 50% jump in a company’s share price is sparked by something substantial, such as a company announcement or a piece of significant news.

However, the reason the Douugh share price is spiking today is unclear. There are no official major announcements or noteworthy news to speak of out of the fintech company today.

The ASX has sent Douugh a ‘please explain’ following the price moves this morning. In its response, Douugh has told the ASX it is unaware of anything that could have sauced this share price spike. It referred the ASX to some recent announcements regarding its acquisition of Goodments, as well as last week’s revelation of a new product.

That latter announcement came on Tuesday, when Douugh announced it had launched a new product called ‘Autopilot’ within its financial wellbeing app. Autopilot contains a number of “self-driving” cash management features, such as Salary Sweeper. This helps users automatically allocate their cashflow to expense accounts and the like.

Of course, Douugh shares only resumed trading on 5 February after six weeks in a trading-halt purgatory. That trading halt was imposed after the ASX initiated an investigation into Douugh over some potentially improper share trading by the parents of director Bert Mondello. Douugh has since told investors that it will hold a general meeting to ask investors for permission to initiate a capital reduction to compensate for the issuance of the shares in question. The profits that Mr Mondello’s parents made from the sale of the shares will also be donated to charity.

One area which has been tipped as a place to invest for the long term is the tech sector.

This is because this sector is filled with companies that have the potential to grow significantly in the future.

Two ASX tech shares to look at are listed below. Here’s why they might be long term buys:

Afterpay Ltd (ASX: APT)

The first ASX tech share to consider is Afterpay. It is a payments company that has been growing at a rapid rate over the last few years. This has been driven by the growing popularity of the buy now pay later payment method with consumers and retailers and its successful international expansion.

Pleasingly, this strong growth has accelerated in FY 2021 thanks to the shift to online shopping because of the pandemic. This appears to have positioned the company perfectly for another blockbuster result this year.

Looking ahead, Afterpay will soon release banking products such as transaction accounts. There is also speculation that it won’t stop there and could even expand into other products such as mortgages in the future. This has the potential to be a real threat to the banks and be another key driver of future growth.

Analysts at Bell Potter are confident on its future. According to a recent note, the broker has retained its buy rating and lifted its price target on Afterpay’s shares to $168.50.

Audinate Group Limited (ASX: AD8)

At the small end of the tech sector you will find Audinate. It is a digital audio-visual (AV) networking technologies provider which was delivering impressive sales growth over the last few years prior to the pandemic.

This was thanks to its Dante product, which replaces all audio connections with a computer network. It then effortlessly sends hundreds of channels of audio over slender ethernet cables with perfect digital fidelity.

Dante is the clear market leader. In fact, Dante has eight times as many enabled devices as its nearest rival. The company is now aiming to do the same with the visual side of the market and has a growing team of experts in the UK.

One broker that is positive on Audinate is Morgan Stanley. It is happy with its recovery since the height of the pandemic and notes that Audinate had a record-breaking second quarter. This was particularly pleasing given how many of its customers are still facing COVID headwinds. The broker has an overweight rating and $9.00 price target on the company’s shares.

After rocketing higher on Friday following its initial public offering (IPO), the Singular Health Group Ltd (ASX: SHG) share price is doing it again on Monday.

In afternoon trade the 3D medical imaging company’s shares are up a further 26% to 48 cents.

This means the Singular Health share price is now up a massive 140% from its listing price of 20 cents.

Why is the Singular Health share price surging higher?

Investors appear to have been buying Singular Health shares due to excitement around the company’s technology.

Singular Health is a technology-driven medical imaging company with the aim of developing technologies that provide patients and practitioners with access to personalised, enhanced, medical data to inform better health decisions.

Its key solution is the Volumetric Rendering Platform. This platform uses proprietary code and algorithms to accurately convert traditional 2D medical imagery into volumetric 3D models.

Once this imagery has been converted into 3D models, users are able to visualise, manipulate, modify, and review the model using a standard monitor or by utilising virtual reality.

Management notes that its platform has several distinct advantages. It expects these advantages to drive adoption in the areas of surgical planning, medical education, and patient education.

What’s next?

Singular Health raised $6 million from its IPO. The proceeds will be used to execute its growth strategy, fund research and development, working capital, and for the purchase of a titanium 3D printer.

In respect to its growth strategy, management appears positive on the future.

It commented: “Singular Health has already established a strategy for the vertical integration of the Company’s capabilities, in collaboration with key opinion leaders and joint ventures with established businesses, to develop an end-to-end solution for the visualisation, analysis and segmentation via artificial intelligence and production of bespoke solutions through additive manufacturing.”

However, it is still early days. Furthermore, a significant amount of future growth is already being priced into Singular Health’s shares.

Based on the current Singular Health share price and its 102.2 million shares outstanding, the company has a market capitalisation of $49 million. This compares to financial year to date revenue of just $22,000.
