trend

Examples of trend in the following topics:

• Periodic Trends

• Trends in Markets

  • A secular market trend is a long-term trend that lasts 5 to 25 years and consists of a series of primary trends.
  • In a secular bull market, the prevailing trend is "bullish" or upward-moving.
  • In a secular bear market, the prevailing trend is "bearish" or downward-moving.
  • A market bottom is a trend reversal, the end of a market downturn, and precedes the beginning of an upward moving trend (bull market).
  • The bull and bear represent the two major forms of market trend.

• Trend Analysis

  • Trend analysis is the practice of collecting information and attempting to spot a pattern, or trend, in the information.
  • Trend analysis can be performed in different ways in finance.
  • Creditors and company managers also use ratio analysis as a form of trend analysis.
  • For example, they may examine trends in liquidity or profitability over time.
  • Analyze the benefits and challenges of using trend analysis to evaluate a company

• The Future of Population and Urbanization

• Understanding Current Trends in Technology

  • Understanding current technologies and trends allows a company to align and synchronize operations to optimize returns on innovation.
  • Businesses are tasked with the ongoing responsibility of keeping up with evolving technology trends to stay competitive.
  • Trends in technology extend out like the branches of a tree: each new innovation creates the possibility for multiple new innovations.
  • Companies use four specific dimensions of BTM to achieve this understanding of current technologies and trends:
  • Taken together, these four dimensions applied to alignment and synchronization of new technology can help businesses keep up with or ever stay ahead of current technologies and trends.

• Trends in Organizational Diversity

  • As a result, the workplace has undergone a number of trends that promote diversity and minimize group biases, as the ethical and economic importance of diversity is well-established.
  • Analyzing trends in equality and value in diversity is useful for managers seeking to incorporate both.
  • Gender differences offer a strong statistical example of this trend, as male and female wage equality has been consistently trending towards equilibrium.
  • Wage equality shows distinct improvement as a result of equal-opportunity ethics, a trend that supporters of equality hope continues toward equilibrium.
  • Analyze the social and legislative trends that define the trajectory towards higher levels of diversity and equality in the workplace

• The Periodic Table of Elements

  • Mendeleev designed the table in such a way that recurring ("periodic") trends in the properties of the elements could be shown.
  • Groups usually have more significant periodic trends than do periods and blocks, which are explained below.
  • Consequently, elements in the same group tend to have shared chemistry and exhibit a clear trend in properties with increasing atomic number.
  • Although groups generally have more significant periodic trends, there are regions where horizontal trends are more significant than vertical group trends, such as in the f-block, where the lanthanides and actinides form two substantial horizontal series of elements.
  • Elements in the same period show trends in atomic radius, ionization energy, and electron affinity.

• Line of Best Fit

  • The trend line (line of best fit) is a line that can be drawn on a scatter diagram representing a trend in the data.
  • The trend line, or line of best fit, is a line that can be drawn on a scatter diagram representing a trend in the data.
  • Trend lines typically are straight lines, although some variations use higher degree polynomials depending on the degree of curvature desired in the line.
  • This graph will be used in our example for drawing a trend line.
  • Illustrate the method of drawing a trend line and what it represents.

• Atomic Radius

  • In chemistry, periodic trends are the tendencies of certain elemental characteristics to increase or decrease as one progresses along a row or column of the periodic table of elements.
  • The atomic radius is one such characteristic that trends across a period and down a group of the periodic table.
  • These trends of the atomic radii (and of various other chemical and physical properties of the elements) can be explained by the electron shell theory of the atom.
  • Underlying causes of the periodic trends in atomic radius also have an impact on other chemical and physical properties of the elements.
  • Predict the relative atomic sizes of the elements based on the general trends in atomic radii for the periodic table.

• Analyzing Organizational Performance

  • When comparing results it is important for an organization to look inward against historical trends and outward against competitive trends.
  • When comparing results, it is important for an organization to look inward against historical trends and outward against competitive trends.
  • Compare results against a history of similar trends to establish a basis for the analysis.
