$10,000 Invested in Defense Stocks When Afghanistan War Began Now Worth Almost $100,000
Was the Afghanistan War a failure? Not for the top five defense contractors and their shareholders.
If you purchased $10,000 of stock evenly divided among America’s top five defense contractors on September 18, 2001 — the day President George W. Bush signed the Authorization for Use of Military Force in response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks — and faithfully reinvested all dividends, it would now be worth $97,295.
This is a far greater return than was available in the overall stock market over the same period. $10,000 invested in an S&P 500 index fund on September 18, 2001, would now be worth $61,613.
That is, defense stocks outperformed the stock market overall by 58 percent during the Afghanistan War.

Eight years stuck on the Suez Canal
Shortly after being freed from the banks of the Suez Canal on 29th March, the Ever Given was impounded with its crew still aboard. But it’s not the first time a cargo ship has been prevented from leaving the waterway: in 1967 the outbreak of conflict led to several boats being stranded in Egypt for eight years. In DG #42 we told the story of how an autonomous floating community formed in the middle of a warzone

Canadian right wingers can be total douche bags.
Back in 2004 I stayed at the YMCA hotel.
There was a construction manager who was also staying there.
I expressed regret that they would be tearing down the YMCA to build condo's.
He acted as if I represented BLM or something.
Then 3 months later, the crew he was managing ... dropped a 5 ton truss 15 stories into heavy traffic on one of the main streets.
