Last Week: U.S. indexes finished sharply higher Friday, capping off another strong week with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq climbing to fresh record highs as a ceasefire between Iran and Lebanon boosted investor sentiment, though concerns persisted after renewed restrictions in the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend. The S&P 500 rose 4.5% for the week, while the Nasdaq jumped 7.2%, notching its 13th straight day of gains — its longest winning streak since 1992. Investor sentiment was further supported by a strong start to the earnings season, with all major U.S. banks topping expectations. So far, Q1 is on track to deliver EPS growth of 12%, which would mark its sixth consecutive quarter of double-digit profit growth.

Safety doesn’t have to be obvious. Sure, high-decibel sirens, bulky pepper sprays, and heavy flashlights can protect women when they are alone, but they also draw unwanted attention and make it more difficult for them to go about their day. It's the reason why many women leave those tools at home.
Women want safety devices that are discreet and that blend into their daily lives. LogicMark, Inc.’s (LGMK) Aster app and accompanying Bluetooth device give them exactly that.
Aster turns a smartphone into a personal safety device that women can use to call for help. The Bluetooth button, which is no bigger than an AirTag, works the same, without the user needing to access their phone. To learn more about Aster, click here.
