| dc.description.abstract | The connection between Turkish industrial production performance and the success of a
popular Turkish football team, namelyFenerbahc¸e, is the central theme of this article. The
success of Fenerbahc¸e is interpreted as a proxyfor the workers mood or morale. Performing
a transfer function analysis on our monthly data set, we reveal positive feedback from
Fenerbahc¸e s success, which proxies workers mood/morale, to economic performance such
that the monthlyindustrial growth rate increases by0.26% with the number of games won
byFenerbahc¸e in European cups regardless of where the game is played. Evidence of the
effects of games against domestic rivals on industrial performance is not statistically
significant.
