The image displays a line graph titled "Number of shop closures and openings 2011-2018," tracking annual shop closures and openings. Data points for each year are as follows: 2011: closures approximately 5,800, openings around 2,900; 2012: closures around 6,600, openings about 3,100; 2013: closures approximately 7,200, openings around 3,400; 2014: closures roughly 6,800, openings about 3,900; 2015: closures around 8,200, openings approximately 4,200; 2016: closures near 7,000, openings about 3,500; 2017: closures roughly 7,600, openings around 2,500; 2018: closures approximately 5,600, openings about 2,300. The graph uses a continuous line for closures and a dashed line for openings, both plotted against a vertical axis ranging from 0 to 9,000 and a horizontal axis timestamped from 2011 to 2018.

The given line graph illustrates the number of openings and closures of shops in a country from 2011 to 2018.
Overall, it is clear that both experienced rapid fluctuations over the period, with more closures than openings in 2018 unlike 2011, when it was the reverse.
In 2011, the number of shops that closed was around 6,400 which is approximately 2,000 lesser than the total number of openings. While this number reduced sharply to below 4,000 for openings, it remained well higher with just a slight decrease to 6,000 for closures in 2012. Over the next two years, both climbed up to nearly the same number, at around 6,400.
From 2014 to 2015, the number of closures took a nosedive reaching roughly 600, while the openings witnessed a moderate decline and remained at 4,000. In the following year, however, closures experienced a spike, reaching just above 5,000 whereas the number of openings remained unchanged. In 2017, there was a slight dip in closures, only to climb back to the same number in 2018. On the other hand, the number of openings in 2017, saw a small increase before plummeting to just 3,000 in 2018.
