- Is the latest change in gross Value Added (GVA) at basic prices (current LCU) unusual for Marshall Islands?
- In 2024, Marshall Islands' gross Value Added (GVA) at basic prices (current LCU) rose 9.6% on 2023 (from 253.78 million to 278.06 million). Across the 26 yearly changes before that (1998 to 2023), the average change was +3.9% and a typical year strayed about 3.5% 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.
- Where is Marshall Islands's gross Value Added (GVA) at basic prices (current LCU) heading?
- From 2015 to 2024 the straight-line trend is upward, about 10.09 million a year. A straight line explains 96% of the movement over 10 observed years. Extending that straight line gives about 301.32 million for 2027. We show this only because the same method, fitted on earlier years, predicted 2022 to 2024 better than "no change" would have: its average miss was 6.81 million, against 10 million for assuming no change. Treat it as a continuation of the recent pattern, not a forecast of events: it cannot see a recession, a policy change or a revision to the data.
