大膽預(yù)測：南非世界杯巴西將奪冠

英格蘭隊(duì)

　　英格蘭隊(duì)的出線率為63%，進(jìn)入半決賽的幾率為21%。The UBS model was applauded in 2006 when it selected the winner, Italy. The bankers also correctly predicted 13 of the final 16, six of the final eight, and two of the semi-finalists。

　　在2006年世界杯的角逐中，瑞銀利用預(yù)測模型預(yù)測意大利隊(duì)最有可能奪冠，并最終言中，該預(yù)測模型也因此受到了人們的好評(píng)。此外，瑞銀還曾成功預(yù)測了16強(qiáng)中的13支球隊(duì)以及八強(qiáng)中的6支球隊(duì)。

　　However, when using the model for the 2008 European Championship, the forecast winner did not make it to the second round. "The moral of the story is that one needs to be humble about the predictive power of one’s model," the Wealth Management team said。

　　不過，該模型在2008年歐錦賽中預(yù)測的奪冠熱門球隊(duì)卻未能進(jìn)入第二輪。瑞銀財(cái)富管理團(tuán)隊(duì)對(duì)此表示，“對(duì)該模型的預(yù)測能力我們還是保守一點(diǎn)為妙。”UBS's predicted quarter-finalists
