Scientists are analyzing whether it can evade vaccines and how its symptoms differ from current strains. Vaccine maker BioNTech SEexpectsthe first data within two weeks, initial findings that will help to determine if a passing scare or bigger hit to global economic reopening looms.\nFearful investors fled stocks worldwide Friday and flocked to havens such as sovereign bonds as volatility spiked. The window for more clarity on omicron to emerge may be two to eight weeks, during which demand for riskier assets could take a hit, according to Citigroup Inc. strategists including Jamie Fahy and Yasmin Younes.\n“At a minimum, volatility will be higher the next two weeks,” said Peter Berezin, chief global strategist at BCA Research Inc. Stocks could drop further but a slide of more than 10% is a buying opportunity, he added.\nGlobal shares slid to the lowest since mid-October on Friday, oil lost 13% and the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield fell the most since the early months of the pandemic. Speculative assets like Bitcoin retreated, leaving the world’s largest cryptocurrency some 20% off a Nov. 10 record.\nTraders also cut back bets on tighter monetary policy to fight inflation -- which had been the dominant theme amid expectations that the worst of the pandemic was over. Just what omicron means for growth and inflation, however, remains foggy.\n“Inflation may have a brief respite by lower energy prices, but lockdowns add to supply constraints while U.S. consumer demand is unabated,” said Ben Emons, global macro strategist with Medley Global Advisors LLC.\nAmid the uncertainty, investors sitting on solid year-to-date gains as Christmas nears -- 22% for the S&P 500 -- may be tempted to bank some profits.
