After Friday’s Omicron variant sell-off, things were looking pretty bleak for investors, but stocks rallied back on Monday. The Nasdaq Composite (COMP:GIDS) led the way, recovering its losses completely and adding a little more for good measure. However, the S&P 500 (SPX) and the Dow Jones Industrial Average ($DJI) were unable to recapture their losses. But the rebound has gone foul as equity index futures are pointing lower Tuesday morning. One warning the market gave yesterday was the fact that the rally was not broad-based. The NYSE only saw 54% of its stocks advancing, while the Nasdaq experienced 57% of its stocks declining. Many smaller stocks also failed to bounce back; the Russell 2000 (RUT) small-cap index dropped another 0.18%. According to Briefing.com, technology stocks were among the strongest, returning 2.6% on the strength of semiconductors. The PHLX Semiconductor Index (NASDAQ: SOX ) rallied 4.1% on the day thanks in part to Lam Research (NASDAQ: LRCX ), which closed the day 6% higher.

The South African scientists who initially discovered omicron (the latest in a string of variants first identified in South Africa) have already attached a giant caveat to their initial warning. They said early this week that while omicron might spread more easily than delta, early data suggest it isn''t as deadly, and that the sickness it causes is less intense. Vaccine-makers have long been waiting for these reports about a new killer mutation that might enable them to sell millions more vaccine doses in the US and around the world. Apparently, the drive to boost their top-line sales growth to meet Wall Street''s increasingly lofty expectations has overridden their purported obligation to "the science".
