Goldman Slams Omicron Panic: ‘This Mutation Is Unlikely To Be More Malicious; No Reason For Portfolio Changes’
[ZeroHedge] One look at the ridiculous plunge across asset markets on Friday, which sent oil into one of its biggest tailspins in history (which as Goldman calculated would only make sense if the Omicron lockdowns are twice as bad as anything observed so far), and one would think that the Omicron variant - which as Edward Snowden so aptly put it "sounds like the name of an 80s movie's evil Robot King" (of course, the WHO had no choice but to skip the Xi variant, located right before Omicron in the Greek alphabet for obvious propaganda reasons) - is several times more aggressive and far more deadly than the Delta or any other Covid variant to date. Neither is the case, and in fact, as even Tom Peacock, one of the original Imperial College narrative-setters admitted, "it may turn out to be an odd cluster that is not very transmissable."

#1 Ignoring its all political. I'd change my portfolio if it meant going Aussie on the population.

#2 Press: COVID Mutations are EEEEBIL,
Especially Those That Enfeeble!
"For elderly Jews,
Though, this could be good news,"
Enthused ghost of old, bold Goldie Zwiebel.

Damned if that (the Wikipedia article) wasn't the funnest, most bittersweet thing I've read in a long week of fun, bittersweet reading. Hey, Hollywood, what do we need more of? Oh, I know... more constipated-looking rainbow teens throwing magic fireballs at one another... what else?
