What the numbers say
In 2024, Aruba's GDP, linked series (current LCU) rose 11.2% on 2023 (from 6.71 billion to 7.46 billion).
Across the 30 yearly changes before that (1994 to 2023), the average change was +4.9% and a typical year strayed about 8.2% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.8 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 17.4% in 2021 and the biggest yearly fall was 26.5% in 2020. 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 the straight-line trend is upward, about 166.06 million a year. A straight line explains 35% of the movement over 10 observed years.

What this measures
Gross domestic product is the total income earned through the production of goods and services in an economic territory during an accounting period. It can be measured in three different ways: using either the expenditure approach, the income approach, or the production approach. This series has been linked to produce a consistent time series to counteract breaks in series over time due to changes in base years, source data and methodologies. Thus, it may not be comparable with other national accounts series in the database for historical years. This indicator is expressed in current prices, meaning no adjustment has been made to account for price changes over time. This series is expressed in local currency units.
