I think an economics Ph.D. would be better equipped to math out business word problems than a physics Ph.D., since that is basically what they do all day?
People with an economics PhD are, on average, less smart than those with a physics PhD (because in economics you can choose easy topics, if you want to). I suppose that what you say does hold for the brightest economics PhDs, though.
