1 Strong Stock to Trade as Markets Shrug off Omicron

by | Dec 7, 2021 | Market Updates

The markets are rallying this morning as fears concerning the omicron variant fade — and more in Tuesday’s stock market recap.

The White House has announced that omicron is less dangerous than the delta variant. This  is good news for airlines and other travel stocks because countries can ease travel restrictions. 

Intel rose 7.5% in pre-market trading as the chipmaker announces its plans to take autonomous driving unit Mobileye public in 2022.

And Tesla is in the process of replacing repeater cameras located in the front fenders of hundreds of its Model S, X and 3 vehicles, though it hasn’t yet issued a recall.

This week we want to keep an eye on the put/call ratio. It’s at its highest level since the early stages of the pandemic, indicating that the market is oversold. 

This should fall back within the normal range as the market heads higher. 

In Tuesday morning’s stock market recap video, you’ll learn whether the market is turning bullish or bearish… what market internals are pointing to right now… whether the omicron variant is taking a bite out of stocks… why I’m bearish on the Health Care sector and bonds right now…  important levels of volatility we need to reach… the top and bottom sectors… and the top stock in the strongest sector and bottom stock in the weakest sector.
