I just saw this movie tonight and it got me interesting in finding gaps in the market or niche markets..
What is the best way to go about doing this? It doesn't have to be anything on a huge scale like the guys in this movie, but how to find things you would never think of? It never crossed my mind until I saw the movie that the US government was asking people to supply them with weapons, you just assume they would source it all themselves.
So what are some good ways to identify potential niche market opportunities?

Look at the back end, like manufacturing (closer to raw materials the better) and waste disposal.
The media never talks much about trivial parts alloy die cast zippers, but you look at a high end sports coat or a cheap pair of pants and they gotten, so somebody got paid to make'em and ship'em. You dig and you find you can go into a universe of rabbit holes my friend. Like the good old soda can patent wars, make tech companies like Apple look nice.
I love this stuff, and could go on for hours. (didn't see the movie, not my style)
But it really annoys me how many people say "well go make it happen" like I am some magical bill gates. An Esty level business is never going to work as fools flood the market, and the big boys have connections and millions in supporting infrastructure I just don't have.

so trips, there is really no niche that isn't filled or that won't be filled. if you manage to find one and start a business in it you will have to pay your dues to much richer people ( jews ) or else they will destroy you and your company through various methods.
my advice is either be part of the system

or do what >>1460273 said, look for endeavours dealing with more raw material rather than finite producs, but that will require more cash to invest, and sell your business before rich investors destroy it and buy it for a dirt cheap price

one gap in the market is a group of people who dont like to work
