Chart Type Selectors: Switch between line charts, area charts, and bar charts to see which visualization best reveals patterns.

Why These Views Matter

Traditional stacked area charts showing absolute growth can be misleading because they:

  • Make large categories dominate visually
  • Hide relative performance and market dynamics
  • Miss acceleration/deceleration patterns
  • Obscure interesting stories in smaller categories

These alternative views reveal:

  • Market momentum through growth rates
  • Competitive dynamics through market share shifts
  • Relative performance through indexed comparisons
  • Economic signals through commercial/personal ratios
  • Emerging opportunities through small but fast-growing categories
