Along with companies that make bomb sniffing devices, retna security scanners, and envelopes made of less pourous materials with clear plastic windows (so you can see the poison).
Bayer is also a great investment, as they make the antibiotic Cipro. I'd also look to invest in companies that make bullets that don't penetrate aircraft hulls.
Of course, I'm joking about the aforementioned, but this is how many people look at "investing".

...wondering why you were contradicting what you said a couple of days ago about not investing in companies that deal with products directly related current events...Then I saw your last sentence.

The war we are now fighting will kick off a technology boom that will make the late 1990's seem trival. We will fight our war through technology and we will restore our national security, in addition to the rest of the industrialized world, through its use. The American people have the resolve, the intelligence, and the resources to eliminate the threat of totalitarian regimes around the world and provide the world with a more secure future.

If it's a quality company who may play a greater role in a situation such as this, it might be okay. For example, Kimberly Clark (KMB) is a leading maker of toliet paper, Kleenex, paper towels, diapers, etc. They are also the U.S.A.'s largest manufacturer of disposable latex rubber gloves and other disposable medical products, having bought out Safeskin and Ballard Medical awhile back.
So it's a quality company, selling near a 12 month low, with rising earnings and rising dividends for the past 5 years, making a product that is rescession resistant (try making due without T.P.), but they also make disposable gloves. The gloves are "Tobasco", as I call it. You buy the company for the fundamentals, but there's also a bit of sizzle to an otherwise sound, but perhaps somewhat dull, story.
Chances are that KMB will be around many years after a lot of these story stocks are defunct.
Disclaimer: The preceeding was not a solicitation or recommendation to purchase Kimberly Clark or any other security. It was examined for educational and illustrative purposes only.

What do you want to know? I mean now that I feel good about my broker's decision to buy Kimberly Clark for me! LOL!
