CLEVELAND, OH / ACCESSWIRE / June 29, 2022 / Mace Security International, Inc., a globally recognized leader in personal safety products, is announcing the launch of its innovative new personal pepper spray, the Pocket Hero. "We are excited to bring the Pocket Hero to our customers. The unique design of the Pocket Hero has many new features including its compact size, its improved aiming accuracy, the capability of replacing the pepper cartridge after use, as well as its environmentally friendly packaging. These innovations are the result of listening to our customers and giving them what they want in a pepper spray," said Daniel Brass, Mace's Director of Sales.

The Pocket Hero introduces a misfire prevention feature that requires a top safety release and trigger mechanism to be depressed simultaneously. While its compact size provides only one-time use, it is still cost effective as the user can replace the pepper cartridge by themselves after use. Replacement cartridges will be available for purchase at very affordable prices. The Pocket Hero comes packaged with a water canister, giving the user the ability to practice with the spray before making it a part of their personal safety routine.

"The Pocket Hero is the second new product to be introduced by Mace in 2022 and while its features have general appeal, it is expected to be particularly enticing to females between 21-34. The unique design of the product solves the common concern regarding the potential for an attacker to snatch the pepper spray away from the defender. Its dual safety feature is equally attractive to users as its compact size," said Sanjay Singh, Mace's Chairman and CEO.

The new Pocket Hero will be launching in July with a major retailer who placed an order a few months ago in anticipation of the product release. The Pocket Hero will also be made available on Mace's website (www.mace.com) on June 30th, 2022.

It's slated to be one of the best programming lineups in the robotics industry, with luminaries like U.S. Secretary of Labor Marty Walsh, inventor Dean Kamen and Amazon’s VP of Global Robotics, Joseph Quinlivan -- and more.

Some McDonald’s locations are axing the chain’s U.S. deal offering soda and other cold beverages of any size for a buck as restaurant owners try to manage a record spate of inflation.

New U.S. data for May showed little immediate relief from the record pace of inflation pushing the Federal Reserve toward another oversized interest rate increase next month, but it did add to a developing sense that the worst may be over. Inflation as measured by the personal consumption expenditures price index was 6.3% on an annualized basis in May, the same as in April and still more than triple the U.S. central bank's formal 2% target - far from the clear evidence of falling inflation that Fed officials say they need before backing off their rate hike plans. Following the release of the latest inflation data, traders of futures tied to the central bank's targeted federal funds rate kept bets that it would proceed with another 75-basis-point rate hike next month.

(Reuters) -Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc on Thursday maintained its full-year earnings forecast due to declining COVID vaccinations, even as the drugstore retailer beat quarterly estimates on the back of strength in its UK-based Boots business. The company said it still expects low single-digit growth in its adjusted earnings for the year and warned on costs related to investments in labor and in its new consumer health business.

Blink and you’ll miss market-missive tweets doled out sparingly from Michael Burry, the investor who rose to fame after correctly predicting the collapse of the U.S. market. In his latest now-you-see-it-now-you-don’t tweet, the founder of Scion Asset Management appeared to be flagging that markets may be halfway through the recent selloff, following a bleak first half that marked the worst since 1970 for the S&P 500. Earnings compression can be caused by fears that recession will hit earnings growth.

If there’s one common theme connecting the market’s experts, it’s ‘be a contrarian.’ Don’t follow the herd, focus on underlying facts, and don’t be afraid to throw out the conventional wisdom. Or, in a memorable phrase from Warren Buffett, “Be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.” Jim Cramer, the well-known host of CNBC’s ‘Mad Money’ program has always had a talent for swimming against the stream, and he has not shied away from pointing out the stocks that investor
