Smart Alerts for Macro Events, Risk, and AI Opportunities

Traditional price alerts tell you when AAPL crosses $200. Useful, but disconnected from why you hold AAPL and what's happening in the macro environment. Ripplora smart alerts are portfolio-aware — they fire when AI analysis, macro events, or risk scans produce actionable context for your specific holdings.

Four types of smart alerts

Macro alerts

Generated when high-impact economic events (CPI, Fed, NFP, GDP) are synced to your calendar or when you run impact analysis. Each alert includes the event name, release time, and estimated impact ranges on your holdings.

Opportunity alerts

Created when you run an AI opportunity scan — on your portfolio, watchlist, or a curated stock universe. Alerts summarize top picks with horizon tags (short, medium, long) and the reasoning snapshot from the scan.

Risk alerts

Triggered by portfolio risk analysis: concentration in a single ticker or sector, macro vulnerability scores, or imbalance flags. These help you catch structural issues before a macro shock amplifies them.

Portfolio alerts

General portfolio-level notifications tied to analysis runs and significant changes in your risk profile after imports or holding updates.

How alerts are created

Smart alerts aren't manually configured one by one. They emerge from actions you already take in the terminal:

• Open the Calendar — today's high-impact events sync as macro alerts
• Run Analyze on a calendar event — impact analysis creates or updates macro alerts
• Run an Opportunity scan — top results push opportunity alerts
• Run a Portfolio Risk report — concentration and vulnerability flags become risk alerts

Reading an alert

Each alert card shows the type badge, headline, timestamp, and expandable detail. Macro and opportunity alerts include estimated ticker impact ranges where available — the same ranges you see in calendar impact analysis and opportunity scans.

Unread count appears in the sidebar so you can spot new items without opening the alerts page. Mark alerts read as you review them to keep the feed clean.

Alerts vs. traditional price triggers

• Context-first — alerts explain why something matters for your book
• Macro-integrated — tied to the economic calendar, not just intraday price
• AI-generated ranges — scenario bands, not buy/sell signals
• Portfolio-weighted — impact scales with your actual position sizes

Smart alerts support research workflows. They are not trade recommendations or financial advice.
