Winning the soccer World Cup can bring instant rewards to that country’s stock market investors. But they better be quick as the post-victory rally doesn’t last long. That’s the conclusion of investment bank Goldman Sachs, which published a wide-ranging report late Tuesday May 27, 2014 on the World Cup and its economic impact. Goldman Sachs analysts found “a clear pattern of out performance by the wining team in the weeks after the World Cup final.” On average, the investment bank’s portfolio strategy team the victor outperforms the global market by 3.5 percent in the first month.

Manchester United's new signing Juan Mata displays his new shirt before a press conference at the team's Carrington training ground, Manchester, England, Monday, Jan. 27, 2014. With Manchester United in danger of missing out on the Champions League next season, Juan Mata's arrival at Old Trafford for a club record fee of 37.1 million pounds ($61.2 million) is certainly an emergency move. But it also marks the first step in the rebuilding process of England's most titled club. After a botched transfer campaign last summer that was followed by the club's lackluster first half of the season, United now looks determined to allow manager David Moyes the opportunity to build his own team.(AP Photo/Jon Super)
