What happened the last time there was a war scare? Nothing. It was used as liquidity for the top firms to buy more stocks at the dip. This happens every single time. People panic, the bears come out in full force, enjoy a dip that lasts a total of 1-2 days, only for the market to go back up yet again.
Repeat after me: when everyone expects something, it never happens. Everyone is now expecting a drop because of this Middle East scare. Guess what will happen? Absolutely nothing and the continuation of the uptrend.
The Iraq War started in March 2003. That was literally the bottom before the stock market went up another 50-60% over the next 9 months.
Always inverse the panic and you’ll be rich. See you at 600 for SPY and 150 for NVDA
This war will be a nothing burger with respect to the stock market and actually result in a bull run

what war? the ME has been at war for the past 2024 years
It make sense
Rockets in Israel isn’t war, it’s weather.
Ah yes. The future will be exactly like the past. Good. I took these notes. I’m in it and buying the dip.
Only variable is oil prices if Iran gets fully involved or of significant oil fields blown up. Unlikely but still possible
WWIII will make stock markets obsolete.
It’s a Chinese Bull run! I’m on board.
May well end up being a shawarma-burger 🍔 Will it come with fries 🍟 though ![img](emote|t5_2th52|12787) ![img](emote|t5_2th52|52627)
Yeah of course. This is why the stock market is easy. If you think stock market will go up, buy puts. And if you feel like it will go down buy calls. People tend to do it the opposite way thus the panic when contract about to expire lol
The market was up 1.5% the day Russia invaded Ukraine lol people forget
Nothing ever happens.
I got plenty of enjoyment watching jihadist get blown up while my investment in raytheon has paid 30% since them stone age monkey jihadist launch made shift rocket toward Israel
The US economy is fueled by war and the defense industry. Weapons is one of the few things we still manufacture and export lol peace time would be worse for the market 😂
So in times like this Raytheon is a sure bet and I agree on the NVDA uptick as well.
There’s a war scare every month. Priced in
I think this war might have an impact on the Ukraine-Russia war, which could be more impactful on the wider scale of things.
Iran was selling Russia drones to use against Ukraine because Russia GUH’d! it’s way into the dumbest invasion I’ve seen.
Assuming Israel treats this as a declaration of war, they are not going to sit around and let that drone factory stand and continue pumping out drones. It will become a major target in whatever Israel decides to let loose on Iran (planes, missiles), and they’ll see it destroyed.
So if Russia loses access to Iranian drones, how much does that hurt their war efforts against Ukraine? (Legit question, IDK)
But now we expect you to be right …
I am a little surprised oil has not popped more.
Israel could easily take out Iran’s petroleum infrastructure. That’s a LOT of oil.
Iran has vowed to destroy the oil installations in Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries if Israel attacks its oil installations:

Nobody is expecting WWIII op
Unless the Iranians fire a nuclear warhead of which they have that pending. Within two weeks they have that capability. You people are in the dark as to the future.
Thanks to inflation, the stock market always goes up over time.
Tesla to $260 tomorrow
It’s not going to drive the overall market down. But it will create and present unique trading opportunities in certain sectors that we can take advantage of to make profit. With that in mind keep an eye on it
Well jokes aside. Depends on the scale of retaliation isreal wants. Full scale war with Iran will def wreck markets for a bit. It could go up if they don’t do anything big but if they want to take drastic measures it’ll be a huge problem. Tactical nuke would be the craziest thing imo. But that’s literally being considered right now.
Positions? Put you money where your mouth is.
I always take macroeconomic advice from OnlyFans girls.
Since you’re obviously a wildly successful investor, I wonder why you’re reduced to selling pictures of your butthole on the Internet.
You might be underestimating how much blood both sides think they are owed
If war breaks out nvda will be a winner WW3 would be the war of the machines
I agree with you on buying the dip and not overreacting but we knew about the Ukraine Invasion for days and people were literally watching city cameras in Mariupol in expectation.
War? Anyway
considering the market has gone up 50% over the last 20 months, I cant imagine another 50 from here. if that happens, cash will be useless and inflation may hit 20%
After freeing up billions to Iran, go fig. This isn’t war, it’s another common-interest training exercise with our money/weapons on both sides… I’m definitely buying the dip.
how about qqq, when cum back to ath meow
I remember what the CEO of the company I was working at said to me on 9/11.. He walked around the company and told everyone, buy stocks. No words about the attacks, nothing relating to what folks were feeling, but “buy stocks!” I didn’t listen, otherwise I’d be a billionaire : ) Amazon, F5 Networks etc!
What about the port strike?
Is that what your crystal ball says or did you just read it from a fortune cookie?
That’s what I was thinking but now this post makes me think it won’t happen
With almost $2 trillion in retail money market funds it’s hard to call a top here: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/WRMFNS
I hope so
When OF skanks are calling the “bottom” we’ve got a longgggg way to go brothers 😬😬😬
