This has been all over the news

 

80% correct prediction- stock market has a good year when NFC wins SB.

With exceptions of old AFL teams in AFC being counted NFC

 

I need my 401k so Seattle here I come.

I actually thought there was something too this until I read far enough into the article and saw this lol. "Of course, the Super Bowl Indicator is nothing more than a correlation. There is no real cause and effect and investors should NOT use it as a guide for buying and selling stocks."

of course I read that too- its not that WS bets/invests because of- it just happens to have an 80% result that the market does well. No more no less. Now if one was a betting man they might bet on 80% odds.

I have been expecting the bottom to fall out of the stock market in 2014 anyway.  This new information just makes me feel all the more secure in that belief.
