To The Moon

The 2026 World Cup kicks off — the biggest ever. 48 teams, 104 matches, co-hosted by the U.S., Canada and Mexico, running June 11 to July 19. It's also shaping up as one of the largest sports-betting events in history, with global wagers projected near $50 billion. Let's be honest: people who trade stocks usually love a flutter too. Buying a stock is a bet on fundamentals; backing a World Cup team is a bet on form and heart. Underneath, it's the same game — probability, odds, and emotion. First, the bad news for the home crowd. No Southeast Asian team made it this time. Indonesia got the closest it ever has in qualifying and still came up short, and Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore never got near. Asia's flag is carried by 9 AFC teams instead: Japan, South Korea,

I bet for Spain to lift the trophy! I wont set alarm unless is my favourite or exciting match.Football no doubt is onr of the sport that generate a lot money [Miser] [Miser] [Miser]

$DKNG $ABNB $BKNG The real winner of the 2026 World Cup may not be the team lifting the trophy, but the companies benefiting from the event. With an estimated $50 billion in global wagers and millions of fans travelling across the U.S., Canada and Mexico, I see potential tailwinds for: ✅ DraftKings – Sports betting activity ✅ Airbnb – Accommodation demand ✅ Booking Holdings – Travel bookings As for the Nasdaq “World Cup Curse”, I think it’s more correlation than causation. Eight tournaments are not enough data points to build an investment strategy around. I’m staying focused on fundamentals and using any volatility as an opportunity to accumulate quality companies. Which stock do you think benefits the most from the 2026 World Cup?

The World Cup curse states that investments in a city for the World Cup result in economic losses to the host country. This statement is true in that the government's investment in one time use infratructure is not profitable. However for the broader economy Including sponsors there is an economic return on advertising revenue through higher sales 

Confirmed real la. 😂 

Enjoy the World Cup excitement and expect market sentiment to be affected by behavioral shifts. Probably lower liquidity with higher volatility.

This is what I see and what we get 

have to chill abt this 

The World Cup "curse" is real. But it is probably not what you think it is. The data is clear. Over past World Cup tournaments, trading volume in major stock indexes during knockout rounds fell dramatically. In the US, shares changing hands on the S&P 500 dropped more than 18% during match periods. The FTSE 100 saw a nearly 23% decline. Germany's DAX fell 33%. Markets do not crash during the World Cup. They just go quiet. And thin markets amplify volatility in both directions. The 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off June 11 with France leading implied tournament probability at 16.2%, narrowly ahead of Spain at 16.0%, Portugal at 11.3%, and England at 10.9%. Argentina, the defending champion, sits at 8.8%. Brazil at 8.3%. But forget the football predictions. Here is where the real money moves

The World Cup kicks off on June 11, and every time it comes around, someone digs up that old “curse” chart: over the past eight World Cups, the Nasdaq fell during five of them, with an average return of -1.2%. The measurement window is from the close before the opening match to the close of the first trading day after the final $NASDAQ(.IXIC)$ - 1994, United States: -1.7% - 1998, France: +9.2% - 2002, Korea/Japan: -13.1% - 2006, Germany: -1.3% - 2010, South Africa: -0.9% - 2014, Brazil: +2.5% - 2018, Russia: +1.4% - 2022, Qatar: -5.4% So it’s 5 down, 3 up. More red than green. But once you look at the backdrop, the story is obvious: 2002 was still dealing with the aftermath of the dot-com bust, 2022 was hit by the Fed’s aggressive

🌟World Cup Fever is here with the first match kicking off on June 11.  So is the World Cup Curse real?  Actually it is simply a case where everyone is distracted by the games & divert their attention away from the stock markets. Football is a magnificent distraction but the cost of capital is the true driver with US 10 year Treasury yield climbing back to 4.45%.  When investors can lock in high guaranteed return from the US bonds, they naturally trim their exposure to stocks. I believe the biggest winner would be $Alphabet(GOOG)$ for no matter which country wins the trophy, billions of fans globally will spend the next month continuously flooding into YouTube and Google Search to stream match highlights, watch live recaps and

I don’t really believe in the World Cup curse. Looking at the past tournaments, the market performance was driven much more by macro conditions than football. The dot-com crash, Fed rate hikes, and earnings cycles mattered far more than what was happening on the pitch. Correlation doesn’t always mean causation. What I do think is real is the impact on liquidity. With matches being played during U.S. trading hours this year, I wouldn’t be surprised to see lighter volumes and more short-term volatility. Traders are fans too, and attention is a limited resource. My biggest winner is still the sports betting ecosystem. The World Cup is a massive customer-acquisition event, and companies like DraftKings, Flutter, Sportradar, and Genius Sports could see a surge in engagement. That said, I’m als

I don't put much weight on the "World Cup curse." Football can affect short-term investor sentiment, especially after major wins or losses, but markets are ultimately driven by earnings, interest rates, inflation, liquidity, and economic growth. A national team crashing out might cause a brief dip in local stocks, but it is usually a sentiment effect rather than a fundamental one. The impact tends to be small and temporary. For the current market, I think macro matters far more than football: • Fed rate expectations • AI spending cycle • Corporate earnings • Geopolitical risks • Global liquidity Biggest winner? Usually not the winning country's stock market. I'd look at sectors that directly benefit from the tournament: broadcasters, advertisers, travel, hospitality, sportswear, and betti
