Standing label
A standing-label is the one-word or short-phrase verdict that sums up how a company's competitive position looks right now, ranging from 'Hard to displace' at the strong end down to 'Little protection left' at the exposed end.
In the data
Across the 10,525 public records, July 2026, the most common standing-label by far is 'Losing its protection,' covering about 40.5% of assessed companies (4,346 of 10,525 scanned). 'Hard to displace' accounts for roughly 18.2% (1,867 records), while 'Defensible for now' and 'Protection under test' are close to each other at about 14.6% (1,520) and 14.5% (1,529) respectively. 'Little protection left' is the smallest group in this cut, at about 12.2% (1,263 records).
