Did we get a 2022 prediction from Scooty? Was he as bad this year as he was last year?

Originally posted by DealorNoDeal View PostScooter did well this year. Only kidding, he sucked as usual.
He predicted the FTSE would drop to 4500. It's gone up to 7300.
He predicted the Nasdaq would fall to 7000. It went up to 16000.
He predicted Bitcoin would hit $320k. It peaked at $67k; currently $46k.
He predicted AMD would crash to $35. It hit $160; currently $137.
He predicted gold would fall to $1,300. It remained pretty much unchanged at $1,800.
He is clearly very emotional, AMD got under his skin, otherwise why would he add it to FTSE, Nasdaq, tulipcoin and gold?

I've updated the table with what I interpret are his predictions.
Bottom line: if you want to make a killing this year...
[IF YOU ARE CRAZY]
Bet the farm on Bitcoin
Short the feck out of the FTSE, Nasdaq, Gold and especially AMD

I wish I'd known that. He sent me the following in a rep at 10:25. How am I supposed to fill in the table with this?Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostSorry, scootie doesn’t do tables.
"FTSE < 5000, target 4500; NAS <10k >7k; BTC 20k high of 320k, AMD $35, Gold <$1300"
