US homicides increased in 2020 to 6/100,000 for the first time in over 20 years. It seems like 2021 is on track to meet or exceed that number. Many have cited COVID-19 and the George Floyd protests as possible reasons for the increase in homicides; as these causes recede in 2022, will the homicides decrease with them?
The source will be FBI homicide data for the country, which seems to be released on roughly a 1 year lag. Expect this market to resolve fully around September 2023.
