NEW YORK CITY: The economic recovery index

INVESTOPEDIA: New York City’s economic recovery index took a hit as of Nov. 27, falling from a score of 85 to 71. A severe drop in the city’s home sales was primarily responsible for the decline, though most other measures also experienced setbacks, amid a rise in COVID-19 hospitalization rates.

This week, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio announced all private-sector employees must get vaccinated against COVID-19, calling the decision a “preemptive strike” against a potential increase in cases following the arrival of the omicron variant in the U.S. He added the city cannot afford more virus-related restrictions and shutdowns.
