opportunities in areas/industries/sectors with greatest investment potential


Explanation:
这里的风口浪尖,其实只需要考虑风口就行了,浪尖不需要。
雷军说过,站在风口上,猪都能飞起来,风口指的是当下最能体现大趋势的行业领域投资机会,如5G、区块链,就是当下的风口,也就是每一次具有一定工业革命性质的契机。
areas/industries/sectors with greatest investment potential
most promising/potential/lucrative chances/channels/areas/sectors
investment opportunities with greatest return
