DEFINITION of 'Super Bowl Indicator'
An indicator based on the belief that a Super Bowl win for a team from the American Football Conference (AFC) foretells a decline in the stock market for the coming year, and a win for a team from the National Football Conference (NFC), or the old National Football League (NFL) before the merger of NFL and American Football League (AFL) in 1966, means the stock market will be up for the year. The Super Bowl indicator was first introduced in 1978 by Leonard Koppett, a sportswriter for The New York Times.


Over the Super Bowl’s history, the indicator has been right 40 out of 50 years — a whopping 80% success rate. It’s lagged a bit of late, though. Since 2000, the indicator has been right 12 out of 17 years — a 70 percent success rate. After being correct seven years in a row, 2016 defied the prognostication — the AFC’s Denver Broncos won the Super Bowl, but the stock markets posted yearly gains.
