STATISICAL ANALYSIS
Trend Analysis
Trend analysis is a technique used in technical analysis that attempts to predict the future
stock price movements based on recently observed trend data. Trend analysis is based on the idea
that what has happened in the past gives traders an idea of what will happen in the future. Trend is
the widespread practice of collecting information and attempting to spot a pattern. In some fields
of study, the term “trend analysis” has more formally defined Meanings.
A trend is the general direction the market is taking during a specified period of time. Trends can
be both upward and downward, relating to bullish and bearish markets, respectively. While there is
no specified minimum amount of time required for a direction to be considered a trend, the longer
the direction is maintained, the more notable the trend.
Although trend analysis is often used to predict future events, it could be used to estimate uncertain
events in the past, such as how many ancient kings probably ruled between two dates, based on
data such as the average years which other known kings reigned. Trend analysis is the process of
trying to look at current trends in order to predict future ones and is considered a form of
comparative analysis. This can include attempting to determine whether a current market trend,
such as gains in a particular market sector, is likely to continue, as well as whether a trend in one
market area could result in a trend in another
1. SALES TREND:
Sales trend analysis is the review of historical revenue results to detect patterns. It is a
useful budgeting and financial analysis method that can indicate the onset of changes in the near-
term revenue growth rates of a business. It is rarely adequate to simply plot the total sales of a
business on a trend line and expect to obtain any significant information from it. Most
organizations sell many products to a variety of customers, and in many regions, which means that
sales can be broken down into a number of sub-groups and then reviewed on a trend line.

2. NET PROFIT TREND:
A profitability trend is the evolution of profit within a business. An upward trend means
that profit has generally increased over time in the short or long run. A downward profitability
trend means profits are declining.

3. DIVIDEND TREND:
The Dividend trend measures the percentage of net income that is distributed to shareholders
in the form of dividend during the year. In other words, this ratio shows the portion of profits the
company decides to keep funding operations and the portion of profits that is given to its
shareholders.

5. NETWORTH TREND:
Net worth is the value of all the non-financial and financial assets owned by an individual
or institution minus the value of all its outstanding liabilities. Since financial assets minus
outstanding liabilities equal net financial assets, net worth can also be conveniently expressed as
non-financial assets plus net financial assets.
