World Cup Winner, from anonymous
Goldman saved me the trouble and published a study showing that since 1974 the world cup winner gets a 3.5% one month outperformance boost (n=8). In this case it would take the DAX right back to 10,000 where it ended two weeks ago. I don't doubt it will get there. Even factoring in the cost Germany will shoulder in aiding its weaker brethren, the market seems to take it all in stride as part of doing business on the continent.
