There isn't a clear-cut cause-and-effect relationship between epidemics and world wars. World Wars I and II, for instance, weren't direct consequences of widespread diseases.
However, epidemics can play a role in creating conditions that make war more likely. Here's how:
* Social unrest: Epidemics can cause widespread death, economic hardship, and social disruption. This can lead to anger and resentment, which can be exploited by leaders to push for war.
* Weakened governments: Epidemics can strain government resources and make it difficult for them to maintain order. This can create a power vacuum that can be filled by extremist groups or foreign powers.
* Competition for resources: If an epidemic creates scarcity of resources, like food or medical supplies, it can lead to competition between countries for those resources, which can escalate into conflict.
An example of an epidemic contributing to war is the Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918-1919. The pandemic is estimated to have killed between 20 and 50 million people worldwide. It disrupted economies and societies around the globe, and some historians believe it may have contributed to the rise of totalitarian regimes in Europe in the 1920s and 1930s, which ultimately led to World War II.
It's important to remember that epidemics are just one factor that can contribute to war. Other factors, such as political rivalries, economic competition, and territorial disputes, also play a major role.
$SPDR DJIA ETF(DIA)$ $SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust(SPY)$ and$Invesco QQQ Trust-ETF(QQQ)$ continues to free fall after an attempt to rebound pre market. it all depends on Israel's response to Iran's aggression.
$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ is the leader of ev industry and even the leader needs cost cutting measures. the stock attempted a rebound last week but the rebound effort was erased. the global situation and inflation resilience might push tsla to cover gap at 146. its pnf also shows a support level at 156.

do apply automatic investment system where you add shares at each 10% drop or at support zones if you know technical analysis. this way you conserve your capital while the stock is strongly downtrending. do take profit at 10% intervals or at resistance zones if you know technical analysis. this way you have capital to buy the dip. only applies to stocks in an index or warren buffett would approve. bon courage.
