investors breaking for concerns over the omicron variant looking to bounce back from very steep losses on friday. you see a little bit of gain there. the dow futures and s&p 500 futures over global markets. you have asian shares that closed lower. europe looking to rebound. bottom line here, uncertainty is stock market kryptonite and all the questions surrounding this variant sent stocks tumbling. the s&p saw the worst day since february. the nasdaq s worse since september. it is still a covid economy and covid stock market. even with the selloff, the s&p up and two big dwhaes need time to answer, does the new strain evade vaccines and is it more transmissible? all of these questions as we start to get the answers i think will put stock market investors back at ease. what i m really watching this morning, also, is a big bounce back in oil.
