British statesman, soldier and writer (1874–1965)
On JudgeMarket, Winston Churchill trades firmly in the upper tier of 20th-century political names, though not quite at the sainthood ceiling. The price captures what made him iconic: the 1940 war leadership, the oratory that held Britain together before the US entered the war, a Nobel Prize in Literature, and six decades in Parliament that few careers can match. That is a multiple built on scarcity. What compresses the ceiling is a steady imperial-era re-rating — Bengal famine discourse, colonial policy, and his record on India now price in where they once did not. The market has slowly adjusted his multiple down without touching his war-leadership floor. Compared to Napoleon Bonaparte, who trades in a similar band on different beats, Churchill carries more moral premium. [Franklin-era comp] is absent here; Barack Obama is the closest orator comp and prices below. Mao Zedong is the contemporary opposite. Volatility is low-to-moderate.
Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill was a British statesman, military officer, and writer who was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1940 to 1945, during the Second World War, and again from 1951 to 1955. For some 62 of the years between 1900 and 1964, he was a Member of Parliament (MP) and represented a total of five constituencies over that time. Ideologically an adherent to economic liberalism and imperialism, he was for most of his career a member of the Conservative Party, which he led from 1940 to 1955. He was a member of the Liberal Party from 1904 to 1924.
