19 candidates, each argued from typed signals rather than asserted: a platform shift opening white space, an input cost falling by an order of magnitude, a new data source or interface, a regulatory obligation, the unbundling of a bloated incumbent, or a leading indicator in capital and hiring.

Horizons are the softest numbers in the Atlas; the methodology page says why.
