How the S&P 500 Responds to War-like situations?

Throughout history, the S&P 500 has been a litmus test for how Wall Street weathers the storm during times of war. From World War II to the Gulf War, and more recently, conflicts in the Middle East, the S&P has seen some gnarly dips as uncertainty rocks the market. When global tensions flare, the index often takes a nosedive, mirroring widespread fear and economic disruption.

Some recoveries have been quick, while others took their sweet time. The reason we wanted to share this?
