David Higgins returns to journalism, launches specialist business news platform
Foxtel’s former editorial lead and news.com.au editor, David Higgins, has teamed up with business journalists Tim Boreham, Tim Treadgold, and Barry Fitzgerald, to launch a new specialised news site focused on ASX-listed companies.
Stockhead.com.au will be led by CEO and editor-in-chief Higgins, and will feature stories about companies listed on the ASX across technology, healthcare and resources.
So an Aussie Business Insider? I thought that already existed.
Congratulations, David! Best wishes and all the best. Sounds like this has been thoughtfully analyzed and carefully executed.

Hardly a new independent news site. It is a PR venture by a company that has small cap tech stocks as its only clients: http://www.afr.com/brand/rear-.....821-gy0jd0
So a bunch of ‘journos’ have sold their souls to a PR firm producing a wanna-be BuzzFeed for business? Get the wool out of your eyes Mumbrella
Meeeeow!
Of course, if Fairfax hadn’t made so many of their journos redundant then this excellent opportunity would not have arisen.
I hear budget is 500k. Will go very quickly with name journalists running around . Can’t just be an ad serving model as not enough clicks . If it’s anything else surely the conflicts of interest creep in , disclosures necessary and whether financial advise is being given
