I see. They’re trying to show the development of the BRICS countries. In detail. The development, though. You only see this if the years are side by side, not the countries.

Funny: If you want to see developments, it’s sometimes better not to sort by time.

Not so funny: Two out of three values are speculation, but not marked as such. 2011 isn’t over yet. 2012 is still to come.
