OT: Super Bowl indicator - Indicates a Bear Market May be Coming.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl_indicator

The Super Bowl Indicator is a superstition that says that the stock market's performance in a given year can be predicted based on the outcome of the Super Bowl of that year. It was "discovered" by Leonard Koppett in the '70s when he realized that it had never been wrong, until that point. This pseudo-macroeconomic concept states that if a team from the American Football Conference (AFC) wins, then it will be a bear market (or down market), but if a team from the National Football Conference (NFC) wins, then it will be a bull market (up market).

Accuracy The indicator has been correct 33 out of 41 times, as measured by the Dow Jones Industrial Average – a success rate of over 80%.[1][2]

LOL! RtS
