Oil, Shipping, trading made billions during this. I want to point out from experience that these are all official profits. In the coming years you'll find out from books, reporting, and documentaries all the shadow black money billions that were made that no even realizes now. So many Marc Rich type characters to be uncovered. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_King_of_Oil
