#1 You're either an inside trader or a sucker?

#2 Stock market is up as these people create zero wealth and eat it.

Them burning their own doorsteps makes zero difference to Wealth creation in America.

You just need to see the negative effect on land pricing from having concentrations of these cultural preferences nearby.

#3 Yes, the profitable corporations that will not return to those hell hole areas will just see their EPS go up. And the cleared land will eventually be gentrified and returned to the tax rolls.

#4 We all know that antifa is backed by deep pocket leftists. If the right people can be made to squeal, the subrogation on riot damage claims will be - a riot!

#5 Protests Are Raging in America's Biggest Cities. So Why Is The Stock Market Up?

Perhaps the torching of the 'Biggest Cities' is seen by the market as beneficial to the economy ?

#8 Rebuilding means cement and glass sales. Companies buying up depleted stocks. Massive rebuilding contracts. Wall Street has no morals about these sort of things.

#10 Weren't the Sixties a great time for the market too?

#11 I think it's fairly simple. The rioting will not go on forever and the cessation of open hostilities may well signal the real start of a recovery. Ergo, if things are just that bad now, they are bound to change and probably for the better in the future so it pays to buy now for investors.

#12 For a select fee, war is very profitable
