Markets Go Haywire

Defense stocks are having a field day as the US and Iran exchange blows, sparking fears of a wider conflict in the region. It’s a rare bright spot in an otherwise dismal market.

The Numbers Don’t Lie

While the rest of the market is tanking, defense stocks are jumping. It’s no surprise, given the situation – when tensions rise, defense contractors usually reap the benefits. And let’s be honest, it’s not like this is a huge shock. The writing’s been on the wall for a while now.

The real question is, what’s next? Will this escalation lead to a full-blown war, or will cooler heads prevail? One thing’s for sure – investors are watching with bated breath, and defense stocks are getting a nice boost in the meantime.
