Visualizing $69 Trillion of World Debt in One Infographic From bean to bar, the cocoa supply chain is a bittersweet one. While the end product is something most of us enjoy, this also comes with a human cost. Based on how much cocoa comes from West Africa, it’s likely that most of the chocolates we eat have a little bit of Cote d’Ivoire and Ghana in them. The above graphic maps the major trade flows of cocoa and allows us to dive deeper into its global supply chain. From Bean to Bar: Stages in the Cocoa Supply Chain Cocoa beans go through a number of stages before being used in chocolate products. Harvesting, Fermenting, and Drying First, farmers harvest cocoa beans from pods on cacao plants. Cocoa farming and trade are at the roots of the chocolate industry, and the consistent supply of cocoa plays a critical role in providing us with reasonably-priced chocolate. So where exactly does all this cocoa come from? The Key Nations in Cocoa’s Global Supply Chain Growing cocoa has specific temperature, water, and humidity requirements. Thank you! Oops.
dshort - Advisor Perspectives S&P 500 Snapshot: A Sine Wave and Closing RallyApr 15, 2014 Doug Short Before the market opened, the Consumer Price Index for March came in higher than forecast, although inflation remains exceptionally tame, and the Empire State Manufacturing Survey was surprisingly weak. S&P 500 ignored the economic data and resumed yesterday’s closing rally to its morning high about 20 minutes later. By 2 PM the index had executed a complete sine wave from yesterday’s close. It then rallied to its 0.73% intraday high shortly before the final bell, which recorded a trimmed gain of 0.68%.More... The Economy In PicturesApr 15, 2014 Lance Roberts It is sometimes helpful to view the various economic indicators and draw your own conclusions outside of someone else’s opinion.

Spurious Correlations Nerdgraph Обзор десятка онлайн-сервисов визуализации данных · Lisa Charlotte Rost 18 Oct 2018 Disclaimer: Since November 2017 I work for Datawrapper, a charting tool. Which means that I can’t review any charting tool unbiased anymore. I will still try. 2.5 years ago I wrote an article recreating the same bubble chart with 24 different charting tools: twelve charting apps and twelve libraries/frameworks. During the last 2.5 years, the tool landscape changed. The chart I’ll rebuild is the same as last time. There’s also something new: I’ll embed all embeddable charts, e.g. from Infogram, Flourish, Datawrapper, Plotly and Google Sheets. As last time, I will have opinions. Infogram I’m not sure why I missed Infogram in the last blog post. Flourish The new player in the tool landscape! Datawrapper In case you missed it: I work for Datawrapper. This is how I created the same chart in Datawrapper for the last blog post, in June 2017: Tableau Public What can I say - Tableau Public works well for data like this. Plotly I like Plotly. Adobe Illustrator Ah, Adobe Illustrator.
Ny statistik visar: Svenskar köper godis och alkoholfri öl som aldrig förr Under 2018 ökade samtliga varugrupper inom livsmedel och drycker. Störst ökning stod gruppen mineralvatten, läsk och juicer för. Gruppen ökade med 11 procent mellan 2017 och 2018 och totalt såldes det för 19,5 miljarder svenska kronor, enligt myndigheten. Samtidigt blir svenskarna allt mer onyttiga. Försäljningen av godis per capita (per person) uppgick till 2 289 kronor i fjol, vilket motsvarar en veckoförsäljning på cirka 44 kronor per person. – Det är en trend som funnits sedan flera år tillbaka. Alkoholfria drycker ökar Det är dock inte bara konsumtionen av sött som ökar. Även konsumtionen av alkoholfri öl, som trots sitt namn – ingår i varugruppen alkoholhaltiga drycker ökar. – Det som är mest förvånande är att alkoholfri öl och energidrycker ökar väldigt mycket jämfört med alla andra varugrupper, säger Daniel Wester. Han menar ett en rimlig förklaring till ökningen är att handlarna har satsat väldigt mycket på exponering av dessa varor i reklam och skyltning under de senaste åren.
