Omicron and The Markets
Since last Friday, the emergence of the Omicron strain of the Covid virus has had an impact on the markets.
As has been the case since the beginning of the global pandemic, we evaluate in real-time each headline surrounding mutations, infections, and potential impact on the health of human populations, global economics, and supply chain concerns in an effort to make decisions consistent with maintaining the financial health of our clients.
Thankfully, our partners at Goldman Sachs have proven to be an excellent resource in this effort.
Their economics research team published a Global Economics Comment yesterday entitled "Omicron and Global Growth." We are making it available to our clients and friends to better understand the situation.
