According to the source (UN data), US$ prices were converted from national currencies so there is a big fx rate effect. Also, figures are inflation adjusted.

It would ruin the aesthetic, but I would color code the lines in the price change graph. Red ones decreased, blue increased, or something. It is very difficult to read at a glance. But, very cool, love it.

Cheers! I was also thinking about a blue orange colouring but at last decided to keep the aesthetics even if it would reduce functionality a bit
