What the numbers say
In 2024, Angola's final consumption expenditure (% of GDP) rose 1.62 percentage points on 2023 (from 75.83% to 77.45%).
Across the 21 yearly changes before that (2003 to 2023), the average change was +0.67 percentage points and a typical year strayed about 5.64 percentage points from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.2 standard deviations above that average, so it was an ordinary year: it sits within the range of normal year-to-year movement.
On record, the biggest yearly rise was 10.78 percentage points in 2009 and the biggest yearly fall was 10.15 percentage points in 2004. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2015 to 2024 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 20% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
