What the numbers say
In 2024, Mauritius' export value index (2015 = 100) rose 2.8 on 2023 (from 86.2 to 89).
Across the 18 yearly changes before that (2006 to 2023), the average change was +0.32 and a typical year strayed about 10.28 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 16 in 2022 and the biggest yearly fall was 16.8 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 2015 to 2024 there is no clear straight-line trend: a straight line explains 12% of the movement over 10 observed years, so the value is moving around more than it is heading anywhere.
