What the numbers say
In 2024, French Polynesia's gross fixed capital formation (current LCU) fell 0.4% on 2023 (from 153.4 billion to 152.8 billion).
Across the 18 yearly changes before that (2006 to 2023), the average change was +1.7% and a typical year strayed about 13.8% from that (the standard deviation). This year's change was 0.2 standard deviations below 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 42.2% in 2018 and the biggest yearly fall was 23.5% 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 3.86 billion a year. A straight line explains 31% of the movement over 10 observed years.
