He predicted vaccine manufacturers would need several months to mass produce a vaccine that would be effective against omicron.\n\"This is once again a COVID-driven market and any negative headlines about vaccine effectiveness or the severity of omicron infections could cause more risk-off money flows as the odds of new lockdowns in parts of the world would rise as a result,\" wrote Tom Essaye, founder of Sevens Report Research, in a note.\nAnalysts had warned on Monday that a relatively sanguine outlook about the variant among investors could leave markets prone to volatility in reaction to negative headlines.\nBancel's comments came a day after President Joe Biden said omicron was concerning, but no reason to panic, and the fight against it wouldn't involve \"shutdowns or lockdowns.\"\nEchoing Friday's selloff that followed the discovery of the omicron variant, West Texas Intermediate crude prices tumbled 5.4% Tuesday to settle at $66.18 a barrel while investors sought shelter in government bonds.
