Hail to the King, Baby! Markets Shrug Off Iran Takedown Like a Badass!

Another Day Another Takedown

So the U.S. decided to drop in on Iran for a little 'how do you do.' Apparently they 'neutralized' some of their nuclear sites. Jeremy Siegel some fancy pants finance professor seems to think it's all good. Says it's a 'success.' Well I'd say obliterating something is always a success wouldn't you? I'm gonna go with yes.

Peace Through Superior Firepower?

This Siegel dude thinks this whole shebang is 'positive for the markets' and might lead to 'eventual settlement in the Middle East.' Settlement? Sounds kinda boring. I prefer things with a little more... *boom*. But hey if it means less alien scum trying to take over the planet I'm all for it. Though who am I kidding I will always be fighting alien scum. Always.

Wall Street: Yawn. Wake Me When Something Blows Up!

The markets barely flinched! Can you believe it? Stock futures 'little changed.' Guess they're used to this kinda thing. Maybe they're all playing Hail to the King in their heads too. I'm thinking everyone should buy a ticket to the gun show because it seems like everyone thinks all is good.

Trump Drops the Hammer (Again)

Trump threatened more 'military action' if Iran doesn't play nice. Sounds about right. Sometimes you gotta show these guys who's boss. 'Come get some!' is what I would say. Maybe he was in his head too.

Risk vs. Reward: A Delicate Balance (of Power)

Siegel's blabbing about 'positives and potential negatives' balancing out. I say go big or go home! But seriously there is the risk of Iran retaliating maybe targeting some of our guys or messing with the oil supply. Nobody wants that. That would be BAD. But I would prefer to be ready.

New High Score Incoming!

Assuming Iran doesn't do anything stupid (which is a big 'if,' trust me) Siegel thinks the stock market could hit new record highs. So buy low sell high and get ready to kick some ass! It looks like it could be time to go to the moon.
