Abstract

Investigates the time sequence connection between trade items profits volatility and volatility in acknowledgements from worldwide tourism for Singapore between 1972 and 1988. Computes four normalized volatility catalogues for both merchandize trade items and worldwide journey acknowledgements, having suitably modified the authorized trade items sequence for re-exports and amended the two facts and numbers sequence for trend. There is some support for the outlooks that trade items acknowledgements are more unstable than tourism receipts. Although trade items are usually more unstable over the entire time span, they were somewhat more unstable in the early to mid-1970s throughout a time span of worldwide instability. Tourism acknowledgements, on the other hand, were somewhat more unstable in the 1980s, partially as an outcome of world recession, but furthermore because of functional difficulties in the tourism commerce in Singapore. Also finds that the development of the tourism part in Singapore has used a snare destabilizing result on total trade items of items and services.
