Good MorningEquities fell again on Tuesday on the combined influence of the Omicron COVID variant and remarks from Jerome Powell. Mr. Powell, FOMC Chairman, says the committee will begin talking about an accelerated taper despite the rising threat of the new COVID variant. The news is not altogether surprising given the state of inflation but was unexpected in the face of the new threat. Ultimately, if the Omicron variant does cause disruptions in the global economy, it would likely result in higher inflation due to tightening supply in the face of high demand.
Today’s trading will be focused on the ADP report and the NFP report that is due on Friday. The ADP and NFP are expected to show upwards of half a million new jobs created in November and the figure could be much hotter. Regardless, employment and labor conditions are another cause for inflation and that situation isn’t expected to change significantly.
