Just about anything and everything can influence the way one country views another, or even the direction a war can take. Take, for example, the power of sports. The Football War (to us Americans, that would be the Soccer War), or the 100 Hours War, was fought between El Salvador and Honduras in 1969 - smack in the middle of the existing Cold War. Put very simply, these two countries experienced extreme tensions due to immigration problems, with El Salvador citizens fleeing to Honduras to escape overcrowding. Honduras didn't like that. These tensions were massively exacerbated during the qualifiers for the 1970 FIFA World Cup, after which El Salvador initiated a full-on invasion of Honduras on July 14, 1969. It didn't last long - hence the 100 Hours War moniker - and El Salvador pulled its troops following an OAS (Organization of American States) intervention, but tensions continued in these two countries. But this was nothing compared to the 1980 Olympic hockey game in Lake Placid. It was the first time the U.S. beat the Soviet Union in the sport in 20 years, and is lauded as one of the biggest upsets in sports history. As I'm sure you're well aware, tensions during this time were sky high between the U.S. and Russia, and these Olympic Games proved to mean much more than just sports to a lot of people. Many considered this victory over the Russians to be a huge morale booster in an otherwise dark and conflict-ridden time - and a huge kick in the face to our adversaries. If something as unrelated to politics as sports can influence the way entire countries see each other, then think of how actual politics can change the direction of tensions between countries... It's Not Just the Little Things We're not in an Olympic year, and there have been no fights on the soccer field that I'm aware of, but geopolitics have been riding high regardless. Despite alleged cooperation between President Trump of the U.S. and President Putin of Russia, U.S.-Russia relations have been under quite a bit of strain. We're a long way from the original Cold War, but we still can't truly call Russia an ally. Sometimes we appear to be in tandem, while at other times we appear to be adversaries. And these days, Russia is looking more and more like an adversary. I might even go so far as to call them our enemy. The commander of North America's early-warning system has already warned the U.S. and Canada that we must upgrade our aging systems, following some concerning developments coming out of Russia. These include Russian bombers flying over North American airspace in the Arctic, as well as Russia resuming fighter-jet patrols in this area for the first time in 30 years, and deploying cruise missiles on naval vessels. Not to mention the Russian weapons technology has been getting alarmingly more sophisticated as the years go on. Even more concerning, Russia isn't even the only adversary on America's list of potential challengers... When the U.S. and the World Collide Times have changed, technology has changed, countries have changed, and geopolitics have changed right along with them. And while, at the moment, there are no huge sports victories to laud between our two countries to bring up morale, there are still players, strategies, defense, and offense. This time, however, there's more at stake, and there are more countries involved. I'm talking much more than tensions between the U.S. and Russia. [U.S. General Admits Shocking Truth: Russia Has "Unstoppable" New Secret Weapon]( The U.S. has been picking fights with several other countries, and as my wife Marina puts it, "not leaving the damn thing well enough alone." Countries like China - a formidable adversary - Iran, and most recently, Venezuela. And as I like to put it, the U.S. cannot do anything of consequence without making the situation in Venezuela worse. Our favorite solution to most geopolitical happenings seems to be a toss-up between putting troops on the ground and implementing sanctions. In places like Afghanistan, troops won out. More recently, however, sanctions have been the way to go. Yet they tend to make relations worse between the U.S. and whichever country we've sanctioned this time. I've discussed this problem at length recently here in Oil & Energy Investor [here]( and [here](. And as I prepare to head over to Windsor Castle for the annual energy summit, I fully expect to hear some discussions regarding the U.S.'s geopolitical position. A Profit Opportunity While the U.S. and China Butt Heads Now, as longtime readers are aware, I spent much of my career working counterintelligence for the U.S. government. I know what it's like to be out in the field. I serve on a consulting basis more often these days, but I follow all the goings on very closely. The actual geopolitical events are fascinating as always, but these days, what intrigues me [are the opportunities]( this "New Cold War" presents. Defense contractors are on the rise, with multi-million-dollar contracts flooding their coffers. In fact, my Energy Advantage readers have recently seen this come to pass, with a triple-digit win in their portfolio just this morning. The company in question is one of the largest companies involved with providing control systems, military aircraft, armored and tactical vehicles, missiles, weapons, and many more vital technologies and components for the defense of our country. And there's even more lucrative business coming out of this "New Cold War." One of the most volatile situations in this day and age of geopolitical tensions is happening out on the South China Sea. There have been [increasingly daring moves]( by both the U.S. and Beijing, with both countries seeming to do their best to antagonize the other side. Vice President Mike Pence has stated that "Despite such reckless harassment, the United States Navy will continue to fly, sail, and operate wherever international law allows and our national interests demand. We will not be intimidated." Unsurprisingly, Beijing has made similar statements, among them veiled threats: "We urge the U.S. to strengthen the management of its vessels and aircraft that pass by Chinese territory to prevent unexpected events." I'd say the message is quite clear. Despite this conflict, the U.S. has continued to develop technology to counter whatever the Chinese may throw our way - including what they call their "Assassin's Mace." But there is one company that's prepared to develop something even better. It's got the blueprints in hand to blast Chinese technology out of the water.
