I don't think there is any correlation to Covid. It is just money flow.
We have just been on a weekly cycle of rotation from growth to value to growth since the beginning of June. A great example of this is IWM which was around $155 in early June when everyone had a party hitting big on weekly OTM options with the cruises & airlines exploding and now two months later, we are back at $155.
This isn't additional money being entered into those names. Just speculators moving money from one sector to another. Passive investment money isn't going to join the value trade until we have an improvement in fundamentals of those companies.
Now, as we have the next round of stimulus money unleashed, we will see everything leg-up again proportional to the size of the stimulus package.
