A new variant, again...

So the Corona virus has a new variant of concern, it was kind of time we heard about a new variant, as it was very quiet about that the last months. It was kind of like the mainstream media had ran out of fear spreading news. But, no, here it is the new variant, and boy did they open a new pot of fear mongering. "It is the scariest one since the beginning"... "The most contagious version"... "The Frankenstein mutation"... I kid you not about that last one, it was in a Belgian newspaper. So there we go again, the fear has to be spread once more, and a big bunch of people still react to it, but they are becoming smaller by the day.

The New York Post's website has it loud and clear

So nothing really odd happening here, same old, same old, but something jumped out of the headlines for me, something quite strange in the midst of something this fresh that is normally talked about with virologists, bio-statistics and other PhD's... There was an immediate reaction from... Federal Reserve Chairman, Jerome Powell. That kind of got my attention, Jerome Powell giving a reaction about the threat of a new variant that is only there for a few days. I almost smell a scenario written here. I could be wrong, but isn't this guy a bit soon to react?
He says this variant could "dent" economic recovery. Kind of odd, for something we know so little about. If I was a conspiracy theorist, I would say Mr. Powell is trying to pave the way for something... Oh wait, I am a conspiracy theorist, I guess he is trying to pave the way, but for what? More quantitative easing? No interest hikes in 2022? We shall see, but I am pretty sure, there is a scenario here...

Sincerely,
