anyone's guess

Totally up for speculation

Anyone's guess describes something completely uncertain or unpredictable—no one knows the answer or outcome.

The phrase implies that even an uninformed guess is as good as an expert opinion: Whether the market will recover is anyone's guess.

Often appears with "as good as": Your prediction is as good as anyone's guess.
