What the numbers say
In 2018, Curaçao's exports of goods and services (current LCU) rose 6.5% on 2017 (from 3.24 billion to 3.45 billion).
Across the 12 yearly changes before that (2006 to 2017), the average change was +3% and a typical year strayed about 14.1% 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 30.5% in 2011 and the biggest yearly fall was 11.5% in 2009. The numbers show how large and when, not why; for the cause, look at what happened in that country in those years.
From 2009 to 2018 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains less than 1% 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.
