I guess I mean if we went to war, they send a missile to Guam like they are threatening and we have to bomb them. Obviously the defense sector in the market would take off but how would it effect oil markets?

Id assume oil prices go up due to the fact that the US military is the largest consumer of petroleum in the US if not the world. Then other countries militaries increase their consumption. Then this supply glut becomes a shortage. Prices go up. At least that's how I see it

Not sure that's really the case. Such a war is likely to be short. Weapons and ammo would have to be replaced and all but that's about it.
Which sectors would do well depends a bunch on how everything settles out. If China takes over NK then Chinese companies should do well in the subsequent development of the NK economy. If South Korea does then it's their companies that would do well. Everyone would look to the development of East Germany as a model.
