OT: war stocks

[pico]

for all your wall street whiz kids, i am curious which stocks will go up considerably if US starts war with iran? is it the same o' stocks that went up during the iraqi war?

i think this war is inevitable, might as well make some money off it.

off top of my head,

general dynimics, raytheon, haliburton, lockeed martin, ge, boeing, northrup grumpman, dupont, citigroup, ubs, goldmen sachs, merill lynch, lehman brothers, jp morgan chase, and the child stocks of the former standard oil.

one questionable stock is ibm...they did made money during wwII from the nazis, but their business model have changed over the years, not sure if they're into war profiteering anymore.

did i miss any? or some of them should not be on the list.

Just short the dollar. There's no way this economy can afford another war, let alone the one we have going already. I can hear the (Treasury's) printing presses overheating as I type.
