To use the @wire service in a Lightning Web Component (LWC) to retrieve data from an Apex method, the Apex method must be marked as cacheable. In the provided OpportunityController class, the findMyOpportunities method is annotated with @AuraEnabled, but it lacks the mandatory cacheable=true property.

The @wire service is part of the Lightning Data Service (LDS) reactive framework. Salesforce requires wireable methods to be cacheable to improve performance and ensure that data can be stored in the client-side cache. Without (cacheable=true), the @wire decorator will fail to execute, resulting in the "Error retrieving data" message or a similar runtime failure.

Option C is the correct fix: the developer must update the annotation to @AuraEnabled(cacheable=true). Option A (Continuation) is only for long-running external callouts. Option B (without sharing) might affect visibility but isn't a requirement for the wire service itself. Option D (OWD) affects whether records are visible based on security, but the technical failure described is rooted in the component-to-Apex binding requirement. Once marked as cacheable, the LDS can properly manage the data lifecycle for the component.
