Self-fulfilling prophecy is where people autonomously change their behavior to agree with a prophecy. For example, investors expect the stock market to go down so they stop investing or they sell their stock. Their actions cause the market to drop. By acting on their expectations, the investors created what they expected. 2, record 1, English, - self%2Dfulfilling%20prophecy
