Predict Future Winners Using historic data to predict the future is not a new thing. It has been a mainstay of the stock market for years. Market analysts look at how a company’s stock price has done over a series of months and years, and they make a prediction on future growth based on that data.

Discussion 5 The book, “The Help” written by Katheryn Stockett, had many literary devices like metaphors and similes.

Being able to predict the future is fascinating yet scary. Ray Bradbury was able to predict future events with a miniscule amount of information. This is fascinating because there is an abundant amount of technology in the world that can be used to hypothesize the likelihood of future events. Some critics argue that the society described in Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 is incredibly similar to today’s society through individuality, however, society in Fahrenheit 451 is different than our society
