Delta is a nothing-burger...

There's no rational connection between the virus and market behavior...

So, the analysis required will not be about reality.... but only about parsing the relative impact or failure of the ongoing propaganda campaign ?

The probable market impacts of the propaganda campaign... also don't appear to be linear...

So, you will have to watch closely for that set of parallel activities that would be expected to occur as a function of implementing plans for any market correction... If "they" decide to pull the plug... and then point fingers at the Delta... and say... "It was the unvaccinated who caused the market crash" ??? LOL!!!

Recent history has shown... they have the tools to stop a market crash happening...

So, if there is one... its because they want one now... and the virus has nothing to do with that...

Anecdotally... I noted it here when two or three days after "Delta Risk" was floated as a problem... that the traffic was way down... and suddenly my travel was unimpeded by others. That lasted for maybe a week. Traffic now is back to where it was pre-Delta Scare... maybe a bit more...

I see places of work with parking fully occupied for the first time since March 2020... and see tourist traffic is back up... not near its highs... but a whole lot higher than it was a year ago when I last went travelling...

My guess is the weather is having greater impact on the economy now than the virus is... and that's probably true globally... but is certainly true here, locally...

But, of course, my thesis is... reality has nothing to do with it... so that doesn't mean much either ?
