Of course. What gives you the confidence to make such an early prediction ?

No. By itself, it should be "What gives you confidence?" to make a general question.
To use 'the' in the statement you must follow it up with what 'the' is referring to. For example, "What gives you the confidence to play basketball at such a high level?".
