When Israel Bombs Iran How Will Market React?

Quote from bwolinsky:

You wouldn't know the difference, as the blast would be so large. Only superpowers would know for sure.

Wouldn't you be able to pick up radiation after the blast or an EMP during the blast?

I don't think it matters since I don't think Obama has the gonads to participate in an attack on Iran. He would rather wait until there is a nuclear exchange in the region before doing anything other than talking.
 
Quote from pspr:

The U.S. could never use nuclear weapons again unless we are being invaded or the other side used them first against us or an ally.

Never is an absolute term. Regardless of all the systems and checks in place to prevent this from happening, people are the machine that push the button, and people are still people. Yes, it could happen.

Stop watching movies, there is no "button."

As someone who actually worked on missile systems in the Navy, you shouldn't be worried about the failure of every single one of the mind-numbing array of fail safes that are necessary to arm, launch and detonate a nuclear device.

But, you should be damned concerned that if it ever became necessary, the procedure people are required to follow in order to get a live one in the air actually functions under the "fog of war."

Yes, they do. You're probably still the one thinking UFO's are not property of the United States Government.

Whether we do or not doesn't really matter. Any attack on Iran will spike oil prices to the $300 level. When you have the power to shut down 40% of the worlds oil supply indefinitely you are in a position of power.

Plus they would explode 100 feet under ground. The technology has advanced so that they can get a Nuke warhead with a yield as little as 200 Tons of TNT.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad should be next. The world would be a better place. I figure we could squeeze Hugo Chavez into the party as well.
 
Quote from pspr:

Israel has given Obama until Christmas to find a diplomatic solution to the Iran nuclear issue.

It may not happen on Christmas or even by the end of the year but what will the markets do when this surprise attack is launched?
================
Well most probablyPSP;
silver uptrends/again ,
gold uptrendsagain ,
USD perhaps goes up, but not a prediction.

Probably QQQ,DIA,SPY downtrend or crashes...........

Oil spikes/super spikes &
if gasoline spikes for long, real estate drops again;
could be the start of a real polar bear/panda bear market again.

Also something interesting, lately looked up the word ''silver'' in 2 Holy Bible hebrew dictionarys. It says silver means ''silver'', ''money, price'' Cool
