HONG KONG (AP) — Shares edged lower Monday in quiet trading in Asia ahead of a meeting this week between U.S. President Joe Biden and Chinese leader Xi Jinping. On Wall Street on Friday, the S&P 500 jumped 1.6% to 4,415.24. Big Tech stocks were the strongest forces pushing upward on the S&P 500, including a 2.3% gain for Apple and 2.5% rise for Microsoft. The release of the University of Michigan report initially caused Treasury yields to pare their drops, which caused stock indexes to wobble. On Thursday, a jump in Treasury yields knocked stocks lower to break an eight-day winning streak for the S&P 500, one of its longest in the last two decades.

The area is women's healthcare, according to Ripman, who manages the $1 billion Storebrand Global Solutions fund. In medical tech funding, only 2% was focused on non-cancer-related women's health conditions. The area of femtech — or software and tech products relating to women's health — is certainly growing. The Storebrand Global Solutions fund invests across four themes : smart cities, circular economy, equal opportunities and renewable energy.
