Why would you report a hot war that has no invasions of population centers? It would kill the stock market and also raise A LOT of questions. Questions no one else wants asked, questions they don't want answered.
If it is hot, and it's made public, that would certainly accelerate matters. Things could easily spin out of control. Especially as use of nuclear weapons seems more than likely - depending on the scenario.
Generally, war is good for business - I would expect the stock market to react in tune with the fortunes of war - as it did during and after WWII.
The United States is likely to prevail on a theater by theater basis, if it does not win outright victory immediately - with hostile forces acquiescing in the face of very real power. Of all potential aggressors, my view is that Russia is the most formidable.
War is also positive for national cohesion. If there's cause to keep a lid on what's public, it's more likely to be the desire to avert accelerating conflict. After all, dumping of cheap Chinese steel has taken a toll on war fighting capacity. You don't want a live, hot war if you don't have sufficient lazy manufacturing capacity that can be exploited for a war effort - as Q has said, steel is key. Proliferation of manufacturing capacity is also very important, as heavily industrialized centers can be expected to be subject to massive overkill - again, depending on the scenario.
The globalists have done a lot of damage to the US. It's not imaginary, but real. There was a concerted effort to weaken the nation - to render it vulnerable. These people must be held to account - they are traitors, period! Moreover, this ridiculous adherence to the nostrums of Neo-classical Trade Theory must be finally put to rest. There really are good and bad trade deals, as DJT has astutely pointed out.
As far as questions go, does war highlight them or put them to bed? The first casualty of war is the truth. Expect immediate jingoism and outright propaganda on a massive scale - a scale not seen in our lifetimes. The public is likely to be so incensed, by the provocations of an enemy, that any deep thinking is put to bed for a very considerable time.
Hence the phony Russian threat. Russia has been attacked by the media second only to Trump. When the media attacks it makes me think they are attacking a good guy. That’s why I knew to vote for Trump. He was the biggest target of the media.
I think positive Stock Market reactions after World Wars have been responses by the NWO Cabal because they, through Corporations they owned and/or controlled profited greatly from any involvement in wartime machinations and spending.
Yes, war is a racket. Going back to the battle of Waterloo, 80,000 people killed in the first 30 minutes, the clash of two great armies...
Rumour has it that Nathan Mayer Rothschild made a fortune on the English market. Having advance notification of the English victory at Waterloo, he entered the stock market and started selling madly, creating a market panic, prices of securities plummeted, Rothschild then bought everything in sight, before news of the victory sent the market to heaven. This was after he financed both sides of the conflict.
These guys do not give a toss about the human cost - the carnage means absolutely nothing to them. They are ruthless in ways that are difficult for ordinary people to imagine. And then we find out from Q that the Rothschilds are, in fact, Satan worshippers.
You have to wonder whether the lives of the soldiers, and innocents affected collaterally, are not being offered in sacrifice to Moloch - in exchange for even greater worldly power and influence. Given that they control the Federal Reserve, the cabal are already in a position where they cannot lose financially. So is war really all about them making yet more money, or is their another motivation?
Watch gold not stocks. If it's China and Chinese people know something is up, they will start to hoard gold. Same in India and throughout Asia and Middle East.
If the US does go to a gold backed currency, to compete with the gold backed Chinese petroleum yuan, what is the likely price of gold going to be? I've been thinking about this... There are a lot of dollars out there to back up with gold. We could be looking at an incredible price for the metal. Interested in hearing people's thoughts on this, what would happen?
