The market would definitely go down at the outset of hostilities. Once our forces took control of the situation, however I think the market would rally large. I don't think it's going to take very long, either, to accomplish that. Days. Maybe, hours.

AB - Handsets in Best Buy and Circuit City Aug 8th???

Seen this thread before?

howardforums.com

BTW a few articles around now showing analysis that getting the War on with Iraq will be a big positive for the markets.

Logic that stable oil prices and one big lunatic less in the area will be a stabilizing factor.

Best,

Re : guesses on potential winners in response to more weird news developments --

Don't forget : we're all supposed to get rich owning gold and silver.

Just ask (the "great") Warren Buffett, who bought 120 million ounces of silver several years ago.

Since that news came public, silver has dropped from roughly $7.00 per ounce to $4.50.

Jon.

Art, <<Would this trash the markets even more?>>

Well Art, that depends.. It depends almost entirely on whether I sell or buy before the event in anticipation. If I sell, then it won't. If I stay put, it will trash the markets for sure.

P.S. (For a small consideration, I can tell you what I end up doing -g-)
