Say it again, Ooooohhh WAR! Huh! (Good God y’all) What is it Good for?
Absolutely NOTHIN’, (unless, of course, you profit from it). At least that’s how Wall Street looks at it.
The lyrics from WAR (the Motown hit from the 60’s) are as true today as they were back then. Unfortunately, the game hasn’t changed…only the players.
Okay, we know we’ll get hate mail for saying this, but it’s the truth.
Contrary to popular belief, war today isn’t waged for some righteous cause.
It’s waged for the global cabal of banksters and the Military Industrial Complex (MIC). Period.
Because they’re both key players for the “Club” who uses them to influence the markets to their advantage.
Are you familiar with the Latin expression “Qui Bono?” It means “Who benefits?”
Ask yourself “Who benefits?” when you hear about wars and rumors of wars.
Then start connecting the dots and you’ll be amazed at what you find.
Those who benefit most from wars operate behind the scenes (sometimes for years) and use political clout to justify spending billions to profit from war.
And a perfect example of this is how Trump is now pushing Zelensky To Halt Russia Refinery Attacks Amid High Diesel prices.
In a phone call Trump indicated he wants Russian supplies to be able to reach the global market…
So, why would he do that?
Maybe he’s trying to keep Russia from nuking Ukraine.
Or, maybe it’s another way for his advisors to make money trading in the energy sector.
Or Maybe, JUST Maybe, the realization that diesel prices are skyrocketing and will eventually cause a global food shortage…worse than during the Covid Hoax.
And like we said many times during Covid “You Can’t Shut Down the Movement of Global Traffic Without Creating Shortages.”
In many ways, this is a sad commentary on human nature.
But the good news is there’s always a flip side to everything.
Yes, you can make a lot of money buying defensive stocks when the threat of war is imminent.
However, at the same time, you can cash in on the same trend WITHOUT investing in companies that make weapons of mass destruction.
Be sure to check our Upcoming October issue of Simplifying Wall Street…In Plain English (HERE) to see other ways to profit by using counter trends as opposed to defensive stocks.
Because like the song says…. “War can’t give life, it can only take it away, OOOOHH WAR.”
Share this with a friend…especially if they are old enough to remember they lyrics to Edwin Starr’s iconic anti-war song “War.” They’ll thank YOU later.
