This diagram continues the statistical reporting of the previous graph. The reader must remember, however:

JUST BECAUSE MOST OF THE FIGURES SHOW AN INCREASE, THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF A TREND. AS THE COCAINE MARKET IS ESSENTIALLY AN UNREGULATED, UNDOCUMENTED INDUSTRY, ALL TRENDS MUST BE TREATED WITH AN ASSUMED LEVEL OF VOLITILITY.

For an explanation of this diagram, see the previous appendix page.
