That is one thing I love about the finance industry vs other industries.

Someone who thinks they can predict the future or at least have a strong opinion can go ahead and put their money on the line rather than just comment on a thread! It’s actually beautiful.

Not necessarily. That person might have no liquid assets at the time, or might not have the means to short a stock, for example. Pretty weird to assume that everyone has funds to move around at a moment's notice.
