Excerpt: "A different kind of pie chart is being used to predict global crises.
A surge in takeout deliveries to the Pentagon—now dubbed the “Pentagon Pizza Index”—has emerged as an unexpectedly accurate predictor of major geopolitical events.
Tracking activity at local pizza joints in Arlington County, the X account Pentagon Pizza Report noted an uptick in Google Maps activity from four pizza places near the Pentagon on June 12. We, The Pizza, District Pizza Palace, Domino’s, and Extreme Pizza all reportedly saw higher-than-usual order volumes around 7 p.m. ET.
As of 6:59 p.m. ET nearly all pizza establishments nearby the Pentagon have experienced a HUGE surge in activity,” the X account posted.
The timing? Just hours before news broke of Israel’s major attack on Iran."
