Reading the Opportunity Radar

How Opportunity Radar surfaces and scores potential investment themes — and how to use the score, confidence, risk level, and time horizon together instead of looking at the score alone.

1
Understand what an 'opportunity' is here
Each entry on the Opportunity Radar represents a theme or cluster of companies that MarketRipple's analysis has flagged as being driven by current, real events — a policy change, a sector-wide earnings trend, or a structural shift. It is a research starting point, not a buy recommendation.
2
Read the Opportunity Score alongside confidence
The 0–100 Opportunity Score reflects the underlying event impact, sector momentum, and historical precedent. Always check the confidence percentage next to it — a high score with lower confidence means the upside case is real but the evidence is still developing.
3
Check risk level and time horizon before anything else
Every opportunity is tagged with a risk level (Low / Medium / High) and a time horizon (e.g. '3–5 Years'). These aren't decorative — they tell you the kind of position this is (a quick tactical trade vs. a multi-year structural thesis) and should shape how you size or research it.
4
Drill into the underlying events and companies
Every opportunity links back to the specific events and companies driving it. Open an opportunity's detail page to see exactly which events fed into the score, rather than treating the score as a black box.

Tips

Sort or filter by sector if you're researching a specific area rather than browsing the full radar.
An opportunity with a high company count and event count usually reflects a broader, more structurally-driven theme than one backed by a single event.
