Hypothesis
This is a process wherein a forecast of events is based on observation. Predictions can reliable only when there is regularity in the changes observed. Predictions are also safe if the variables can be controlled or if there are less variables that can possibly affect predictions. One can predict what is to happen at a certain time when predictions are based on observations and past experience. Predictions, therefore, can be within or beyond observed events.Interpolation is a prediction made based on observed data, while extrapolation is a forecast beyond observed data.
To anticipate the observations or measurements that will be made is known as an HYPOTHESIS.
A statement made in advance that expresses the results that will be obtained from testing a hypothesis is a prediction. A hypothesis is supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation.

I think you may be referring to the Mayans. They predicted some sort of global disaster on December 21, 2012.

The only difference is between a prediction made by a man and a prediction of God
A conclusion can only be made with solid evidence. A prediction is a foretelling of the future, a guess of what could happen soon. Predictions are not always the truth, but if there was evidence to back up the prediction, then a conclusion would be made to make it true.
A prophecy is a prediction made from alleged divine inspiration or divine revelation.Answer:They are basically the same. A prophecy is a "prediction" made by God and spoken through a chosen person. The only difference is between a prediction made by a man and a prediction of God. A prediction made by man is just a "guess" and may not come true. Whereas a prediction of God is given from His foreknowledge of future events and will come true.

Yes. Indeed a Stock Market Prediction tool can be made. But if the question is how much of an accuracy that tool can be in terms of predicting. It depends on the logic used for prediction. Since there is no concrete logic that can enable stock market prediction, fuzzy logic would be the best thing to use for a Stock Market Prediction tool. A right mix of Fundamental and Technical Analysis powerd by a powerful neural network algorithm should be good recipie for a good Stock Market Prediction tool.
It means basically that a prediction is being made in advance for a particular trend. The trend may be the purchasing of certain products, public reactions, new fads, etc.
