Wow, reaction on "I'm out", fact is that airlines are still flying and that Omicron is an achy flu..... I wish I had dry powder now instead of spending earlier. Such a great opportunity to buy....

Bargain buy at these prices, is it not? Don’t get what’s happening really but powder in as much as I can.

Buying on this dip seems to have started now.

US opening, overall markets dip

The high level of contagiousness, paired with very mild symptoms, may make Omicron a blessing in disguise.

Right enough of all this madness. Moderna CEO has a completely hidden agenda!

Fully booked and high priced even with hotel quarantine.

Welcome Skindle, I was crapping myself on Friday but it dropped so low I was not selling. On reading up on these kind of viruses they typically mutate into less prevalent versions and extinct themselves. Fingers crossed…..

No bloodbath, this is as I have been saying a complete overreaction..... We need to get on with our lives. If Omicron is passive variant that outruns Delta, we should let it loose and not keep borders closed containing Delta and letting it run riot. Enough is enough already with this reactionary thinking once the facts show the opposite. Q4 for IAG will be positive.

Glad I didnt sell on Friday........ scaremongering over a mild strain of covid, this could end up being the best news since covid kicked off and Delta hopefully eradicated.

Topped up my car this evening as I have a feeling everything is going to shoot up tomorrow, fuel included.....

Becoming mainstream that Omicron is nothing else more than a flu.....

Here we go, at last its starting to filter through to Europe that this variant is not lethal, as I said it might be a positive spread that ends delta once and for all!! Open the borders!

There will be a lot more but its looking like it is less severe than Delta. Much less....

Same theory I had referenced earlier today!

Glenhoss, same with all variants, this is not news... more scaremongering....

Given this weekends news it is looking much more positive than negative. I was fearing the worst but its looking quite manageable and that vaccinations will help a lot.

No news on it’s being severe , just transmissible. It actually could overtake delta in transmissibility and negate it. I dare to say that this variant could actually be the beginning of the end of Covid. Better having a widespread head cold than a lethal variant like delta?
