False.

A major component of speculation is comparing it against available evidence, and it comprises a component of theorization.

The first step of foring a theory is taking a guess, or speculating, on a concept.

After this initial speculation you move on to adding available data to back the idea, thus forming a theory, which can be built upon further or countered by other evidence.
