World Cup According to Goldman Sachs

With the start of the World Cup just days away, take a look at the surprisingly extensive yet readable guide to the economics of the World Cup that Goldman Sachs has put together.  It is not, as the title might lead you to believe, a report on the dollars and cents (or rands) being generated at the World Cup or being paid in tribute to FIFA, but an outlook on the tournament using economics as a predictive guide.  I don't know what their past batting average is, but if you're looking for help filling out your office bracket, this could be the ticket.

Additional previews from the quant departments of investment banks JP Morgan can be found here, and from UBS here.
