Omicron Variant Fails To Derail The Market

The opinions expressed by columnists are their own and do not necessarily represent the views of Townhall.com.

I'm cautiously loving today's action, as news of a second Omicron case in the United States didn't derail the market. In fact, it might have helped, as it appears the person is already on the mend.  Note: the Minneapolis man was just at a convention in NYC, so maybe the travel ban stuff is too little too late #Justsaying.

I'll feel much better when the S&P 500 is above 4,655 and NASDAQ above 15,622.

The big "winner" today is the Russell 2000, which has so much work to do, but it is bouncing off a double bottom and leading all the major equity indices.
