Yes you can. A" gut feeling" is an instinctive feeling about someone or a situation. Examples:1. I have a gut feeling that Sam is going to be famous one day. 2. I have a gut feeling that Eliot will disagree. 3. You should always trust your gut feelings, they are like an internal warning system.

Well, first of all the word "gut" usually has a negative connotation. Your guts are not thought of as being something you want to think about. So most commonly a "gut feeling" will be talking about something bad happening. "I have a gut feeling this person is going to cheat me."

I have a gut feeling that the American economy will tumble in the next few weeks.
