The poster said he sold everything on Friday because he expected the stock market to crater starting today.

That would have been a fun thread to post in today...

Wait. Why did he expect a crash today?

I replied to him in that thread, "Please let us know when you buy back into the market."

I tried to find that thread earlier this morning and give him a “bump.”

I replied, telling him I was doing the opposite as the DJ would be up 500+

I was ready to bump that thread as well. 3% jump to start the morning and he was saying 400+ drop in the DJIA

That guy has been uncannily wrong. Like it would be hard to mistime the market that often. It's like a gambler going 0-16 in a weekend.

Is it "Huss" … 90% sure it starts with an H.

Thought about that thread this morning and had to chuckle a little bit.

It’s the good ole’, “I can time the market,” philosophy.

He didn't start the thread I'm referring to. Hussss has another doom and gloom thread which someone bumped a little while ago.

I think it may have been "tiger81" who started the "sold everything today" thread on Friday afternoon.

I was thinking about that thread while I was watching the futures soar early this morning.

Dude said that he had a "feeling". Another confirmation that emotional investing and trading is always the path to follow.

I can’t remember it either, I don’t think it was someone who posts on the this board very often they though

That's what he posted about today but he also said today was going to just be the start of a crash this week.

I'm not an admin so I can't answer your question specifically but generally speaking threads that have only one word titles usually get anchored.

The thread you're referring to has the title "Roku."
