The first line graph below illustrates the average percentage of salary people save and the national interest rate for Country X. The second chart shows information about the number of long-term credits for houses and the quantity of foreclosures in the same country over the same years, from 1991 to 2005. Overall, the two given charts exhibit a common trend for some of the indicators. The percentage of the national interest rate had risen throughout the years, as house foreclosures and New mortgages had too, while the saving rate had fallen.
Taking the upward trends first, at the beginning of 1991, the national interest rate was 5 per cent, and house foreclosures were nearly 1. Before 2001, both representative rates fluctuated slightly and then increased. For foreclosures, the rise was significant and continued to increase rapidly; by 2005, the number reached nearly 45. In contrast, the national interest rate was less sharply rising, and by the last given year had no big difference from its starting point. The incredible change was caught by the new mortgages, as their number in the end was higher than 60, even though the starting quantity of credits was just 40.
One downward trend is the percentage of money saved by people over the year. In 1991, more than 3 per cent of the whole income was accumulated, and its popularity rose up to 1995, after which it declined. After 2003, it decreased even more, and after a short time, the percentage went completely into the negative. In 2005, its data was under -1 per cent.
To summarise, two charts were correlated by the same climbing trends for four indicators; however, the most crucial change was shown by the saving rate.
