Knee-jerk conclusions are a dangerous thing

Today's slide deck:  https://bit.ly/3FQDYrG   -

Today we look at markets trying to stabilize after Friday's traumatic reaction, amidst poor liquidity, to the news of the new omicron covid variant outbreak. Most of all, we are reluctant to draw any conclusions or endorse the market's attempt to do so as it will take some time to determine the scale of the danger from the new variant, not least from strict travel bans that are already taking shape. We also preview the week ahead in earnings and macro event risks in today's pod, which features Peter Garnry on equities, Ole Hansen on commodities and John J. Hardy hosting an on FX.
