How to read this data
- Each point is the monthly average published by the World Bank, in nominal dollars (not adjusted for inflation).
- Volatility is the standard deviation of monthly returns over the last 36 months, annualised (× √12). It needs at least 12 consecutive months.
- Maximum drawdown measures the largest fall from a previous peak over the last 5 years.
- These are historical, descriptive metrics: they don't predict the future price. See the methodology.
