You should understand how the market works and not just assume that things will works this way magically. There's always a reason on why it's happening despite of what you are thinking/dreaming. Well, apparently it will happen after the halving next year but the real pump will likely going to happen at Q4 next year IMO.
I don't think he is noob enough to not how the market works but what he was saying is only based on his dreams and of course we know that most dreams aren't exactly going to occur but he is right that it can only be a sign that something positive is going to happen. It can be a small pump and it can occur within this year. We can still benefit from it especially if we bought at a much lower price.
