This week we are looking at the conflict between Israel and Hamas. To preface, I do not want to upset anyone by talking about politics nor do I want to pick sides, but the war has a massive effect on the economy and the world; with that said, I hope for the well being and safety of all that are affected. We will first look at China and how they view this conflict as an opportunity. With America’s attention focused on Israel, Ukraine, the economy and upcoming election, not much is left for China. China knows this and will use the Israel Hamas conflict as an opportunity to bring developing countries under their wing bringing them one step closer to becoming the world’s number one superpower. As for a means to make quick cash, look at military related stocks such as weapon suppliers. A great example of one is $LMT (Lockheed Martin). Over the past 10 days, Lockheed Martin has gone up 10%. To name a few others, $NOC, $GD and $DRS have seen massive returns in the past month.
