Aruba: Adjusted net savings, excluding particulate emission damage (current US$)

Key figures

What the numbers say

In 2021, Aruba's adjusted net savings, excluding particulate emission damage (current US$) rose US$282.33 million on 2020 (from −US$68.09 million to US$214.24 million).

Across the 25 yearly changes before that (1996 to 2020), the average change was −US$15.35 million and a typical year strayed about US$191.7 million from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 1.6 standard deviations above that average, so it was larger than a typical year, though not out of the range seen before.

On record, the biggest yearly rise was US$368.94 million in 2008 and the biggest yearly fall was US$444.32 million in 2005. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.

From 2012 to 2021 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 8% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.

Worked out from the yearly values above. How the checks work: standard deviation, z-scores and straight-line trends.
