Superstonk: Here's why this is good for $GME
My retirement!
Lol "would world war 3 hurt my portfolio?"
"The answer may surprise you!"
Not if you have a healthy investment in Stark Industries
Not when you invest in the arms industry on the winning side
Why pick a side? Invest in both!
Long on LEAD
Won't somebody think of the poor hedge fund managers
World War III will be the ultimate expression of communism. After all, it will be the end of capitalism when we all go together when we go.
Is it weird, as a tail end gen x/elder millennial, to really hope Lehrer was right about this one?
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
we all go together when we go.

Does "third world war" mean "World War III" or a (proxy) war that will happen in third world countries but money-managers in the first world will have strong interest in?
...both.
Welcome to the THIRD - WORLD - WAAARS!
*holds for applause*
Countries from the west and the east have come together with each their funds to pit third world soldiers against each other in a battle for glorious supremacy. This years games is held in Mogadishu and is sponsored by Coca Cola.
Each side gets about 15,000 soldiers and each of their countries will recieve a discount on their international debt. The outcome will decide how much dune feathers will cost per freight on the international markets the coming year.
Who will be the winner? The Eastern dune manufacturers, or western bedding corporations.
One thing is for certain, it won't be the soldiers. Grab a hold of that machete and go hack off some of that debt, boys. Maybe a new predatory loan made between the elites of the west, east and Africa will pull Africans out of extreme poverty... but if not, they could of course try again - at the next annual THIRD - WORLD - WAAAARS!
*applause*
Its title is actually "The Great War (2024)" bc nothing is original anymore.
Of course it's a reboot.
Will soldiers have to wear the logos of companies that sponsor them?
Not only, but for extra sponsorship money, they have to tattoo their entire body and then sell their skin (after death of course, though not a deal breaker) so it can be sold at an online skin market.
Collect the backs of an entire platoon and decorate your rumpus room today!
First one then the other.
Headlines like this make me mad at capitalism. Like I try to be fair in my political outlook, but how can anyone see this and not feel it's beyond disgusting.
The article agrees with you, and says your portfolio will be the least of your worries.
This is getting depressing too quickly :( I always had the hope that world war three would be earth vs the solar colonies instead of just earth vs earth...
When the protomolecule makes the Ring you’ll know it’s time for WW3.
Is this an anime reference i am not too cultured to understand? :')
The Expanse, it's a live action scifi drama
Don’t you mean book series?
I hate everything.
The average stock market growth of 7% a year includes both world wars
So which stocks should I buy during a war? Do weapons manufacturers or the manufacturing sector in general go up?
I recommend chicken stock, though, a vegetable one would be nice too and probably cheaper.
I would probably invest in general electric during a war.
The article says it is quite unclear and impossible to predict
I am glad economists are so highly paid and trusted. They clearly deserve it. What with their firm unambiguous answers
Military industrial complex goes brrr
Hopefully conscription
If I remember the last time we had it, the rich could buy their way out of it with college enrollments and fake disabilities and shit.
The rich must fight for their economy.
I think you forgot to paste the link.
Ah yes, priorities.
Dont people have enough real stuff to worry about?
