For something like that, you need a special graph, and I forget the name because no one uses it.
Y axis is "percent growth" and the X axis isn't at the bottom, it's in the middle.
Like, the only way I can describe it is a line graph because it technically is, but there's some name done it.
Capitalism doesn't like it tho, because there's "red numbers" and red numbers scare investors
At some point recognisability is also worth something. I can immediately read this graph, I understand it, it's good.
Occasionally it's used in a confusing way where people assume it starts at zero despite it not being the case, and sometimes intentionally so. But that's just the case here.
