Trend is the ordinary-least-squares fit of value on year, reported with its R² — how much of the movement
the straight line explains, as a percentage of the period mean level so economies of different size are comparable.
Momentum is the mean change of the last three years minus the mean of the three before it, in percentage points. Half-period shift
compares the second half of the window against the first. Volatility is the standard deviation of year-over-year change.
Outlier years exceed 2.5 standard deviations from that economy's own average change.
